Using Assembly Items

An assembly is composed of components which are individual parts in the inventory or other sub-assemblies. Assemblies in MyLedger allow you to do manage your manufacturing process.

Work flow for using assemblies:

1. Define assemblies. Goods & Services–Add Assembly.
2. Build assemblies. Goods & Services–Stock Assembly. Individual parts are removed and assemblies are added to the stock inventory.
3. Sell assembly items like any other item.

Please note that you cannot buy parts defined as assemblies.

As assembly is just like any other inventory item in your sql-ledger with the additional information about its components. You define new assemblies using Goods and Services–Add Assembly.

This option reduces the quantities of the components and increases the onhand quantity of the assemblies. COGS is not recorded at this point.

COGS for the assembly is recorded from individual components when you sell the assembly. FIFO allocation also occurs at the time of sale. (Rows are inserted in invoice table for component parts with assemblyitem=TRUE)

• More Reports–Goods and Services–Stock Assembly gives you a list of your Stock Assembly actions. This report lists the parts taken out of assembly as well as assemblies built.

• Goods and Services–Assemblies gives you list of all or selected assemblies with their components:

• Goods and Servers–Components gives you a list order by partnumber and the assembly in which it is used.

• Work Order You can print work order for a sales orders. Work order lists all component parts required to fullfil a given order of assembly items.
