Manufacturing

Is there a way or can it be added to see the Operation Description on the Clock Entry Screen (mobile app) instead of just a number..? We are using the clock entry on the mobile app for the employees in our shop, however since they just see Operation ID 10, 20, 30, etc. and not a description it is causing quite a bit of extra work on our managers to make sure their time is coded to the correct ID. Any suggestions welcome. 

Hi Acumatica,I created an Item for a Produce.There are multiple transactions and changes in Current Cost.Upon running the Cost Roll. There is a value in Pending Standard Costand click Update Pending. On the Stock Items Screen, the Pending Cost Updatedand Update Standard Costand the Current Cost is now Updated.

Does anyone know what happened to this on the 24R2 version? We just moved from 23R1 and its gone.   

Hi,Wondering if anyone knows how I can access the fields that contain the cost data of a BOM?I would like to access the fields inside the BOM Cost Summary popup, either via a generic inquiry, API endpoint, or even just a BQL statement, to use elsewhereAny help is much appreciated!!

Is there any functionality in Acumatica where you can enter a production order number and a list of child production orders are display and you can select which child production orders you want to process moves/completions on?This would be sort of like creating or printing production orders.

Hi all,We currently use core Acumatica as an our ERP and are moving to utilise the Manufacturing module. I’ve created all the cost drivers, the bill of materials, etc for our testing and the BOM calculated cost all matches our Manufacturing models, however, when we generate a sample Production Order against that same BOM it generates a difference in the Variable OH attached, and we can’t determine why.So, the BOM has a single operation with the following configuration:Setup Time: 00:00 Run Units: 384.00 Run Time: 01:00 (labour is backflushed) Machine Units: 1,978.710 Machine Time: 01:00 Queue Time: 00:00 Finish Time: 00:00 Move Time: 00:00 Ignoring Materials because the match the BOM Labour is attached via a shift at a Diff Type = Rate, and a rate of 44.690173/ hour. Overhead is attached via a single Overhead rate, which is variable by Machine Hours, has a factor of 1.

Hi Acumatica Community,May I ask if there is a setup of this field to make it automatic enabled upon creation of Production Order Maintenance?  Thank you!

In Acumatica Productionorder detail page we have add 2 custom column in UI. But we take 1 column in AMProdOper Extension we take 1 column which is Date Time. But not hide when Enable/disable my moduleIn DAC  In aspx  

I am working with a prospect and the existing system uses a kiosk to scan production order, work center, and start, then the do the same to scan stop.The prospect feels the time needed is excessive and want to understand how fast Acumatica can scan with a tethered scanner and on the app.

Hi everyone Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this issue in Engineering Workbench and Visual BOM. In BOM, the Subassembly Item BOM is set to Revision B.But in Visual BOM and Engineering Workbench, it pulls in BOM Revision A. Is this intended behaviour of these two screens? Revision A is not the default BOM for the subassembly. Thanks for your input. 

Hi Acumatica Community, I just want to ask if there is a setup for Data Collection, specific in Scan Move Screen. Here’s is scenario upon testing.Production Order - Qty to be Produced (20 Qty) and Tracked by Lot each I have a backflush for Materials and Labor Once the Production Order Maintenance is released I’ll go to Scan MoveUpon 1st scanning, it requires the followingProduction Nbr. Warehouse Location LotUpon 2nd up to 20th scanning, it requires the following      1. Production Nbr.      2.  Lot as you’ve noticed, it requires multiple scans for Production Nbr. Here’s my requirements.1. Production Order Nbr.2. Warehouse3. Location4. Qty (20 KG)5. Scan Lot (20 Lot Nbr.)   Hoping this process can cater in Scan Move functionality Thank

A parent BOM has been configured with input material which has a separate BOM both BOMs are active but when I create orders for subassembly, the orders are not generating. Currently using Acumatica build version 24.104.0008.

Hello! Is there any way to have the Record Notes / Pop-Up Notes show up when we enter a material line directly into the Production Order Details? Currently we have a bunch of items that are Kanban and we do not want anyone to use the Mark for PO functionality to set purchase demand without checking stock first. Initially I put pop-up notes on the specific Kanban Stock Items and found that it didn’t pop-up when entered into the Prod. Ord. Details screen. Thought I’d try and see if it would copy as an internal note instead and came to the same result. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!

We are new to Acumatica and would like to know how to change a Non-Stock Item into a Stock item.  Have attempted to delete the item and re-enter but cannot delete due to the item stating it is in multiple tables.  Have changed the posting class and still cannot change the item to a stock item.  Have attempted to fix the issue via Bills of Materials to to avail.  Thanks in advance for any information you can provide to help correct the issue.

We are new to Acumatica and still in the learning stages and business processes.  We have used sales forecast in the past along with a production forecast.  How can we still use both and which one is best for our production dept to use?  We want the sales orders to pull from the forecast but not both.Looking for knowledge and how we can make this work.

Hi All,We have this customer who is requesting to adapt barcode scanning for its warehouse team. What are the configurations and enable/disable features that need to be enabled? The customer is in the manufacturing field and currently using core modules for manufacturing, production, sales, and purchases.With the existing features and modules, is it possible to adapt barcode scanning, or does my customer have to purchase additional modules? Please let me know your valuable ideas.Thank you!

I’ve noticed over the years that a string like .../(W(104))/… can be found in URLS, but I’ve never been able to determine what this indicates.  I can create a link without this section of the URL, however it resolves back with a number when the site comes up.  Can someone help me understand?

Hello everyone,I have a customer asking whether Matrix items can support the bill of materials (BOM) functionality. Where can I get some information about that ? Thanks

I’m working with a customer who is setting up a fairly lengthy configurator for their industrial product. He discovered that if he missed an option for one of the features, and then adds it in under the Features form, that it will not pull this new option into the selection set within the maintenance for his configuration. He ends up having to delete the feature, and then add it back in and recreate all the rules associated with that feature. I did see that you can export options and rules, then import them again when you recreate which should help the situation.Has anyone else noticed this, and is there any other way to update the feature without having to remove it from the configuration. I tried using the refresh tool and that didn’t appear to pull in the new option. Thanks in advance for any assistance or suggestions.

We often allocate input materials to a Production Order ahead of time — but the materials are in a different location than the production site.Once allocated, Acumatica won’t let us transfer the materials to the correct location because the inventory is locked.Our current workaround is to: Unallocate from the Production Order Transfer the inventory Reallocate it again This feels messy and inefficient.Our VAR suggested we just consume from the original location and physically move the material — but we’re not comfortable doing that due to compliance concerns.Has anyone run into this?Is there a way to transfer allocated inventory while keeping the link to the Production Order?Appreciate any ideas!

(Obviously) this is a test order from our sandbox tenant.  We’re trying to come to grips with the process here, but we are stuck.  This order at “Released” status, but the ellipsis menu is pretty much all greyed out, and we can’t add a labor transaction.  Can you help us solve the mystery?  

Before I recreate the wheel, does anyone have anything like this?We have a lot of variables in our product lines.  When customers request a new Length/Width/Material/etc we have to create a new Stock Item, Build a BOM, etc.Right now, we have ~5 spreadsheets with our product lines that have to be maintained to provide a quote for the customer.  This is also sent to the Product Manager to build the Item and BOM.I want to build a New Item page that would have variables depending on Product Type, in which certain dropdowns would be available or options in those dropdowns would be selectable.  Based on those parameters selected, it could build the Inventory Item, BOM, and provide a more accurate Quote. 

We are planning to introduce a custom frame order for our Online store on Shopify. The customers will pick the pre-configured sizes for their custom orders. Right now, our staff will create a custom Sales Order in Acumatica then create a Production Order. Wondering if it's possible for the custom orders to be auto create as Production Orders once they have synced to Acumatica? 

During one of our Move transactions we received the following error.The label printed along with the attributes being passed through to the label and the associated Move transaction did release. This is the first time this has happened since our upgrade and our transaction volume is very high. Is this an error to be concerned about? If so what is needed to resolve this?
