Hi All - 

 

New to the community here but wanted to share a GI our team put together to see if it would help anyone else. This GI takes in a qty, warehouse, and BOM.

Based on the BOM and quantities it will calculate how much you could make based on each item alone. It will format the line item as green (if enough to make the qty listed on the header) or red (if insufficient to make the qty listed on the header).

Looking to share this and learn more as we are new in the community!

@Chris Hackett  Can you make this a Topic so that @salvonashai  can share his GI? It’s a good GI that I think the Community would benefit from.

Also, can you guide him to where he can post more like this?

Hi @salvonashai - Thank you for sharing this tip with the community! I have changed this from an ‘Idea” to a ‘Conversation’ in the manufacturing forum category. We use ‘Ideas” for product enhancement requests that the product teams review. Please do share any tips you have with the community as a conversation in the forum you feel is the best fit. Here’s a link to getting started in the community as a resource. Happy posting!

@salvonashai can you attach/share your GI? It appears it wasn’t attached. Thank you!

I also have built one that is very similar, but 25R1 now has this as a standard functionality for manufacturing module.

I’d be interested in it

The new Production Order bu Build Capacity in 25R1 has a major flaw.  It processes each production order independently and does not “allocate” as it processes.  For example, it order 1 requires 10 of a component and 10 are available it is marked as ready but if order 2 also requires 10, it too is marked as ready.
