Sending part to our subcontractor on a shop order

Question

Hi everyone,To let you know I’m using IFS APP 9. We are trying to put a process on our shop order with a subcontractor.This is the scenario :We have a product X , with component A & B. ( I already set up the structure / routing )The product X is made by our subcontractor from component A & B , so we have to send component  A & B. After he mixed component  A & B together he sends us the final product X.We keep the stock in our site because we also sell component  individually to other customer.We have a customer order for product X, which generate a shop order ( beacause we don’t have stock) telling us to prepare items A & B, eveything is correct until the shipping .At any moment we can bring up what's product we send on the delivery note to our subcontractor, so when we get the delievry note after the “Ship WIP to supplier” there is only the operation related to the service "mixed A & B".So how we can send our product to the subcontractor  after getting the items out from the shop order ? If anyone know something about this situation,Regards,Nicolas.

HiBjörn,My mistake i forgot to link in the component to the outside operations, that’s why i could’nt get the component in the delivery note. It’s working well thanks you.I didn’t think about the structure purchase, it’s could be greatbecause usingthe standand customer order process would allow us to generate some document about shipping dangerous goods.I’m gonna try your sugestion./Nicolas.Sorry the Best Answer is righe here :If all work done to convert components A and B to product X is done by the subcontractor I think you’re better of using a regular purchase order with supplier material. I.e., Setup product X to be purchased instead of manufactured, and create a purchase structure/BOM that includes components A and B. Then you will have better shipping possibilities for A and B.If you still want to use shop order with outside operations for this purpose it should be possible to include the information about components A and B being shipped to the subcontractor if those are linked to the outside operation and you select to Include Operation Material when printing the Delivery Note
