Hi,

You can control this in Code table with Part_line_Code that you select in the Transaction.

In the part line code setting, if you select the option “Part Becomes Prod” with the Install, it will create a Product soon the part Transaction is made.

Hope this help.

Hi, @Kasun Manuranga 
 

Thanks for your help. I have some additional questions.
As I said, in my logistics process flow the part is shipped from a warehouse to the VAN tech.

Then the tech will declare the part used and at this step, I guess the part will be declared as a product in the customer site.

1/ For this logistics flow : FSM couldn’t allow me to select “Install” or “billable part” for the flow “warehouse to the VAN tech” , the only option that works is “Transfert”. So could you suggest to set the 2 flags you mentioned for the “Transfert” part line code ?

2/ As you said Install a part to a product is managed by the Part line code. So, for the part is it optional or required to set the  the part as “Asset” and/or “Part to product” ? What setting is required for the part if I want to have this Part installed as a product when I used it ?
 

Thanks and Regards

Hi Anthony,

1. If a part moved from Warehouse to Van, its an inventory Transfer between two Locations. So if you setup two options for Transfer type, soon the shipment is done it will create a Product for that particular part so I see this is not a valid Process. Therefore its should not the correct way.

2. Part can become a Product in Several ways.
 #. When you processed a Part Need using any Line code where the two options marked in those lines codes.
 #. If reported a "Usage" using a Line code with the mentioned two options, soon you saved the Usage, it will create a Product.

"Part to product" option in a Part record indicates whether a product is created when the part is used. For example if you tried to use a Part with "Part to product" option is unchecked with one of Line code where those two options enabled, then you will not be able to post a shipment or report a usage but there will be an error stating that "The part XXX is not eligible to become a product". But you are able to use such parts as a Billable parts.
\So "Part to product" is enabled for any part that can becomes a Product i.e. we deliver that as a Product to the customer. 

Also you may find "Part to Product" option in a Product Record as well, that indicates whether this product can become a part in inventory and that a separate thing. Asset means  that option identifies the part as an asset to the company.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for your help. Could you explain what do you mean by “this is not a valid Process. Therefore its should not the correct way.” 
Could you explain the valid process with a example  for a very used business case :
1/ For a request, the part is shipped from a warehouse (or Office’tech) to the VAN tech
2/ Then The tech will use the part in mobility and this part will become a Product on the Customer site

Could you explain with sreenshots of request/task/part need  and settings required  
Thanks for your help
