Manufacturing

We are in the middle of implementation and I am writing a workflow for issuing Purchase Orders to Outside Process vendors for metal finishing (Ie: Powdercoating, Plating, etc),  however I am not certain that I am totally clear on the correct process. We have setup non-stock items to represent the outside processes.  These have been defined as a service, They have vendor(s) associated with them on the vendors tab and the default price as been set to $1.00.   On the manufactured (stock) item I have defined a BOM and on the operation step for the outside service I have added the Non-Stock item (Powdercoat) to the BOM as a material.  The qty required has been set to the per-piece cost that I was quoted,  the Unit cost remains at $1.00, The material type has been set to “Sub Contract” and the Subcontract Source has been set to “Purchase”.  On the Outside processes tab I have also checked the “Outside Process” box and have selected the preferred vendor for this operation.  

Some context - We are a high volume production transaction location and we scrap/reject off work orders to either scrap or rework locations. We quarantine scrap to be able to rework it if necessary. At end of month we purge our scrap locations (issue out of system) to record the expense on our P&L. However we seem to have ran into an issue since we went live in 2022 when we do a negative move that is scrap (we call these negative scrap transactions). We do this to try and reverse the move transaction when there is an error/mistake when it was created/posted. Acumatica doesn’t seem to like this very much as it doesn’t correctly reverse the posted transactions, reverse the inventory, or update the Work Order Totals. Every time this happens (a lot) we have manually reverse the inventory back into WIP, post an opposite transaction WIP adjustment to correct Work Order Totals, check to see if the Applied Overheard reversed correctly (Cost transaction), and finally many any

Hello Experts, I am getting stuck in one of the issue how to show all the warehouse qty  for an item in inventory planning display when MRP is run, is there any setup missing i have enabled inventory planning check box for the warehouse location which are there in item, but then after iam unable to get the all warehouse location qty when mrp is run.

Hi Community,Many of our manufacturing clients are ETO shops who are incorporating Project Accounting (or Professional Services) with Manufacturing.  Do to the nature of the ETO manufacturing, the client is often required to recognize revenue using the Percentage of Completion method, per their CPAs.We love that manufacturing and (formally) project accounting are integrated, but from an accounting perspective it feels as though cost accounting for manufacturing and project accounting couldn’t be further apart, and I’m struggling as to the best way to leverage the best of each feature set to achieve the client’s accounting goals.  To illustrate, in manufacturing (and in a full-absorbtion cost accounting paradigm) the costs of each production order are capitalized to WIP Inventory on the balance sheet until the production order is complete.  Upon completion the accumulated manufacturing costs are placed in FG Inventory until the goods are “sold” and “shipped” to t

 We have a project with multiple tasks from initiation to signoff. For this project, we’re creating Production Orders for multiple Finished Goods. Labor Transactions: When labor transactions are created for a production order, they generate a GL transaction that posts to the WIP (Work-in-Progress) account. Upon closing the production, the labor costs move to the Finished Goods (FG) inventory. Shipping/Issuing Finished Goods: When the finished goods are shipped or issued, the costs move to COGS (Cost of Goods Sold) and update the Material account group in the project. Is this flow and my understanding correct? The main challenge I’m facing is tracking the production labor costs that have been reported back to the project, particularly when the

We have a problem in configuring work center. A work center is configured with ‘basis of capacity’ set to crew size, and three shifts are added, each with a different calendar. The calendars are configured with 8 working hours in a day, but the timings are different. When the MRP runs, the action date calculates based on the crew size and calendar in the first row of shifts but we thought it would consider all the shifts. If all the shifts are considered, the action lead time should be reduced to one-third, as the total working hours of the work center are 24 hours.We are not sure why Acumatica considers only the shift details in the first row

When updating the Safety Stock and other settings on the INVENTORY PLANNING tab of a stock item, the new value carries over to all existing item warehouse details records for the item. Shouldn’t it only carry over to whatever the default warehouse is? It seems undesirable for it to update all warehouse detail records because each warehouse could have its own safety stock. This is on 25R1 25.101.0153.5. I understand that when multiple warehouses are available that the planning settings should be updated on the individual item warehouse details records. However, it becomes confusing for users when there may only be 2 warehouses (one ‘Main’ and a secondary back up warehouse). It’s easier to simply update the safety stock on the stock item and have that setting carry over to the warehouse detail record for the default warehouse, rather than also updating the secondary warehouse. Is this expected behavior?

I need to advise the sales team regarding the availability of materials in the multilevel BOMs (Capable to Promise (CTP) multi-level BoM), which may include both Manufacturing and purchasing items at various levels. Any ideas on how to create a GI or even generate a report showing the INSiteStatus.QtyAvail using AMMultiLevelBomData?

Hi  I have been trying to set up CTP with a multi-level BoM and I am having some trouble. Does anyone know if CTP work with multi-level BoMs please? Thanks Matt 

Issue description If a production order was created from the Inventory Planning Display (AM400000) form for a non-lot/serial tracked item or a lot/serial tracked item with the When Used assignment method, there was a mismatch between the Qty. to Produce in the Summary area and the Quantity column on the Line Details tab on the Production Order Maintenance (AM201500) form (see the following screenshot). On the Inventory Allocation Details (IN402000) form, the system displays incorrect

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.

i have role Admin and have full access rights to report. Report have one parameter: Please help me. All report in system when i selected  is no data availible parameter. I think it's a permissions issue. But I also have administrator access and access control for report.

When I link an open Purchase Order to a Production Order using the PO Link button, the PO and Line do not show on the outside process tab. Does that tab only show the PO when you create the PO from the Production Order? 

Hello Has anyone seen this error? I added Mass Actions to a GI for Production Order Ticket, but when I try to mass edit them or even one, I get this error. I was looking to complete or cancel multiples at once.  

As shown in the screenshot below, we understand that when a Move transaction is performed, the system should create both: The Move Transaction, and The corresponding Cost Transaction. This is not the actual screenshot; it was taken from the local system. In our case, we can only see the yellow-highlighted Move transaction line. The Cost Transaction shown above does not appear in the Production Order. We have identified an issue where, after completing a Move transaction, the Cost Transaction is not being created for that specific Move.As a result, the system generates a

If a user does not have any previous Time Clock entries created in the browser, the mobile app does not have an option to + Add a new entry.I’ve seen demos in YouTube that show a + button to start new entries.We checked settings and user rights.The user can create new clock entries in the browser, but not in the app.Any suggestions? Thanks 

We were eagerly awaiting 2025R1 to be able to cancel/correct purchase receipts without having to go through AP to get the process completed.  We were hoping for a simple reversal feature that could make things easier when a mistake was made.I’m just now learning that if we want to use the purchase receipt cancel/correct functionality, the Manufacturing or Service Management functionality cannot be enabled in the Enable/Disable Features. Does anyone know the reason why this feature is not available if you use the Manufacturing or Service Management functions?

The action dates for the purchase items shown in the inventory planning display do not match, even though all the purchase items within the box are used to manufacture the same item for the same sales order. Additionally, no lead time is specified for these purchase items, and there is no available quantity in the warehouse. 

Hi All. Do you know why I get this error when linking the BOM in Production Order. The Production order was created from SO if that helps, but there were also 2 items in SO that was marked for Production and linking the BOM is fine without error. Can you please help? 

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, I would like to confirm the MRP configuration at the stock item level in line with the latest 2025 R1 updates. I have completed the configuration and tested a few MRP cycles, which are attached for your reference.Could you please help confirm whether the configured process flows are aligned with the expected standard behavior? Additionally, I would appreciate clarification on a few questions related to the results observed during testing.  

We are on 25R2 modern UI and using the New Release Process for Manufacturing.  I have seen two glitches so far, and wondered if anyone else has seen these in their instance:A Move that completes an operation no longer records Actual Start Date and Actual End Date in the AMProdOper (Production Details, routing section) table.  We have critical reports that rely on these dates, and they are broken right now due to this issue. The final Move (production receipt) for a linked Production Order to SO Line no longer allocates the inventory to the SO Line.  You have to delete the SO Line and re-add it to invoice the sales order.  The issue this creates for us is that the production order loses the link to the Sales Order, also breaking critical reports that help us report on stock product versus build-to-order product.I don’t see a way to undo the New Release Process, but I would like to.
