Community,

 

would like to borrow your mind here. Multi-site BOM set up procedure.

for example a manufactured product 20-100. it is to be manufactured in 2 sites.

20-100 (manufactured) - site 101

  • 20-110 (purchased raw) - site 101
  • 20-120(purchased raw) - site 101
  •  
  •  
  • 20-120 (manufactured) - site 102
    • 20-121(purchased raw) - site 102

Site 101 will do final assembly for part 20-100, site 102 will manufacture part 20-120 and via distribution order transfer the material 20-120 to site 101 to do the final assembly.

so, question here. from Engineering Transfer, how I could transfer to site 101 with part 20-120 Purchased Raw part type? since part 20-120 is already defined as a manufactured part. 

 

I have tried Detailed Transfer, in Engineering Part Transfer Graphic window, the part type cannot be changed, as I am planning to change the part type from Manufactured to Purchased Raw for part 20-120 in site 101.

 

Thank you.

Part 20-120 is defined as a manufactured part only in site 102.

In the Engineering Rev Transfers page (EE) or the Engineering Revision Transfer Actions page (Aurena), for site 101 set the Part Type = Purchased (raw), Make/Buy = Buy (maybe not required, but just to be safe), and use the correct transfer template for Purchased (raw).

@matt.watters Matt, I realized one thing, if you changed 20-120 part type, make → Buy, use purchased raw part template, then system is ok to transfer the part to site 101 individually, but for the top part 20-100, even you specify you want to transfer the all level, system only transfer the current level, which is only 20-100 is transferred, no kid items.
