[WebERP-developers] Inventory in Manufacturing

[webERP D. <web...@li...>]

We are using the BOM, WO and other capabilities of the Manufacturing Midule
and have the following challenges:

* We have items that contain batch or serial numbered parts.  If we create a
work order for a number of parts, and issue a number of serialized or batch
controlled items, there exists no means to force a specific component to a
finished part.  For example we have serial numbered item ABC as a component
of serial numbered part DEF.  When we build DEF we assign a unique serial
number and incorporate one of serial numbered item ABC.

There is no way to make sure that Part DEF Serial Number 123 contains
component ABC 888.

We need to trace back items by serial number and batch.  We recognize that
some of this information is in the transaction trail.  But the 1 to 1
relationship is not known.

If our work orders are for one piece then the relationship can be
maintained, but such is very onerous for all involved.

* We too frequently make mistakes issuing items to Work Orders of make data
entry errors on serial numbers.  The needs to be a way to "roll
back"/diassemble an item so the inventory is correct and proper item can be
built.
