Works Order Processing is a system enabling companies to sell products which require processing or assembly while avoiding the need to keep these items in stock.
Works Order Processing is used with two main types of 'output' product:
Plated products - whereby raw materials are sent off to be plated and are received back into stock as a distinct 'plated' product; and
Kits - which are an 'assembly' of several components (which may themselves be Kits/sub-assemblies).
The following examples show the full Works Order Processing cycle, including the relevant system-generated documents and user actions required, for (a) a plated product and (b) a Kit product when a Works Order is initiated from a:
Purchase Order
Kit Make-Up
Sales Order
Note: The following examples assume the User has Back-To-Back Ordering and all appropriate User Roles/Permissions enabled. We will also assume Branch and Price Book settings for Works Order Processing have been configured. For further details see Configuring Your System For Works Order Processing.
