This is the use case.

Stock Item   ABC

BOM    ABC has 1 outside process for welding.

BOM ABC contains

Stock Item 1,
Stock Item 2,
Stock Item 3

Steps

  • Create Production order for ABC
  • Create Purchase Order for ABC
  • Create Vendor Shipment (this shipment should have Stock Item 1,2,&3 being shipped to outside process vendor).  but when i create the vendor shipment from the production order it only has the Stock item ABC on the shipment not the components).   The ABC item is the item i should be receiving back into inventory from the vendor.

I am missing a step or have the steps being done incorrectly.  What should the proper work flow be?

In the BOM, In the material tab for the selected components you should select “subcontract” in material type and “ship to vendor” in subcontract source.

With this when you create vendor shipment, components will shipped to vendor for outside process.

@sspencer Did you select the Material Type for the stock items as Subcontract and subcontract source as “Ship to Vendor”?
