Overview

To efficiently manage the Subcontract Assembly and Free Issue materials process, ProcessForce utilizes the following key functions:

• Bill of Materials (BOM): defines the items to be assembled, categorized as External.
• Manufacturing Order: manages inventory issues, receipts, external work-in-progress (WIP), and WIP variance journals.
• Inventory Management: allows for manual picking or backflushing of inventory.
• Inventory Transfers: facilitates the movement of inventory from the central warehouse to the subcontractor warehouse, linked to the Manufacturing Order.
• Purchase Order and Goods Receipt PO: used for services based on Non-Inventory Items, with reference to the Manufacturing Order.
• Automatic Goods Receipt PO: triggered when Subcontract production is booked.
• Batch Traceability: managed via manual picking or backflushing, following FIFO, FEFO, or FMFO methods.
• Cost Analysis: compares planned versus actual costs.
