BOM for purchasing

[Former Member]

Hello,

I need your help!

Look the scenario:

The requisitioner needs to buy a Computer. In the purchase requisiton, he puts 1 item - computer.

When I do the PO with reference on this purchase requisition, appears the same item - computer.

Until there, no problem!

But, in the invoice send by DELL, does'nt come 1 item, the computer. The invoice comes with the components of this computer, like software, mouse, monitor and so on. All items comes separated.

I can't ask to requisitioner put in the requisition all of this components, because he doesn't know.

So, when I create the Purchase order, the item "computer" must pull all this components, automatically.

Like a Bill of material.

But the BOM apeears only when the PO is for subcontracting process. And it's not this case.

Someody knows how can I do this?

Thanks, Camila.

Hi Camila.......

The BOM is only for the sales document. But one work around is there. Your client will ber able to see the component items of a computer inside the print preview. You have to prepare a BOM for Computer and then with the query you need to design crystal report so that they can get the child component........

HI camila

Make a BOM computer and place all the components in t and while making a invoice pull up the item computer from the master and pulling this item would in result lead up all the child items associated with it .

Secondly if u dont want this way then u have to contact a technical consultant which would realte all the child items of computer in the UDO,

Hello Camila,

Do you sell Computer? In your case, only if you manage all components in your own inventory, you may need to put in all components on the PO.
