Hi All,
Acumatica's Production Cycle for a manufactured product consists of 2 major steps: 1) produce volume first and then 2) subsequently, pack the volume into the required SKU.
In such a scenario, is there a way to ensure that there is full availability of all materials required for producing a specific volume of a product, prior to confirming a Production Order? If yes, how and where can this be implemented/checked? In other words, a Production Order should not be allowed to proceed further (any subsequent steps) if there is either no or not enough material as required to produce a specific volume of the manufactured product.
The same applies to the 2nd part above i.e. to again ensure that all packaging material required is available in full quantity during a request for Packaging Materials. Since this is a separate TR request (Inter Warehouse Transfer), how to ensure that this TR request is tied to the Production Order from step 1 above? The reason being, in our case we use some common materials and packaging containers for multiple manufactured products and would like to have a one-stop audit trail/report/GI that provides information from start to finish for a particular Production Order.
Has the above scenario been improved or integrated/updated in 2025 R2 Manufacturing Edition?
Any tips/suggestions/clarifications will be greatly appreciated.
