Just started using Acumatica 5 months ago and I am the person at my company responsible for getting it sorted out for the other employees...so I’m the pioneer that gets to take the arrows learning how to use the software...so my question is this..
I want to know if there is a way to make kits (aka custom assemblies) in Acumatica?
For example, Lets say we take 2 -3 stock items and want to bundle them together as one part number for a customer. In this example we would have one custom part number that includes those 2-3 parts, perhaps some labor and then all those items roll up into that custom part number with a custom price.
Currently I see how to do it in the software, but it requires us to go to the “stock items” page.. make a part number.. then run over to “Kit Specification” area and build it out… then run over to the “Kit Assembly” area and type in the part number once again and “assemble” it… and then run back to the “stock items” page to see the price. At which point we can go back to the “Kit Assembly” page and disassemble the kits since we now know the price.
This all seems wildly complicated in order to just bang out a simple custom assembly item. THERE HAS TO BE AN EASIER WAY TO DO THIS.
I am new to Acumatica and don’t know all the ins and outs of this yet…. but for software that is supposed to be fantastic ERP software… this seems like a bit of a hacked up method to do this.
Am I missing something or is this just not a feature that Acumatica can handle?
Thank you very much for your input.
