Here is the scenario

Allow Preassigning Lot/Serial Numbers flag is flagged in Production Order type screen

Lot/Serial Class created with assignment method “When Received”

Serial number is pre-assigned to the Parent FG : Example SER0001. when the production order was created.

FG has 3 sub assemblies..  

Assembly 1

Assembly 2

Assembly 3

 

When the assembly is produced - the same serial number generated for the parent unit (SER0001) should be reused/assigned for each assembly Item when it it moved. 

Has anyone come across this scenario? Any thoughts or insights?

@Preeti Rayen - we don’t have this automatice capability today.

We do allow you to assign the sub-assembly to the FG Serial number when you issue the sub-assembly to the parent production order. Then you have full traceability.

You might also try and pre-assign the Serial number to the sub-assembly. (If they are different Item Classes)
