The app improves the setup process of a manufactured item on the Item card in Business Central.

Setting the Replenishment System

The Replenishment System field has been moved to the Item tab.

Changing the Replenishment System option to Prod. Order introduces four new tabs on the Item Card. This allows for easy setup of the Bill of Materials and Routing directly from the Item Card without having to navigate to the individual setup pages:

Production BOM Information

From the Production BOM Information tab on the Item Card, the Bill of Materials (BOM) can be configured and certified. If there are versions of the BOM, the Item Configurator will automatically show the active version.

Production BOM Lines

The Bill of Materials will be displayed in the Production BOM Lines tab. Based on the status in the Production BOM Information tab, these lines can be altered directly from the Item Card.

Routing information

From the Routing Information tab on the Item Card, the Routing can be configured and certified. If there are versions of the Routing, the Item Configurator will automatically show the active version.

Routing Lines

The Routing information will be displayed in the Routing Lines tab. Based on the status in the Routing Information tab, these lines can be altered directly from the Item Card.
