Summary
There is the ability within Platinum to create kits. The following article explains the approved procedure to do so.
In Detail
Kit creating and building is split into stages:
Creating a New Kit Part Number
Go to "Stock Control" -> "Maintenance Options" -> "Kit File Maintenance" -> "Add or Edit Stock Kits"
- In the "Stock:" field, enter in the part number of the top level kit your are amending/creating. If in the "Desc." field you get a "Stock Not Found" message, press <Shift+F10> to create a new Part Number.
- Note: If you build this kit internally, i.e. it is made up from individual component parts that you stock, then on the "Movements Tab", set the "Internal Build?" flag to "Yes".
- Now press <Enter> to get into the "Part:" field.
- Now type in the part number that you want to add to the kit, or search for the part number you require.
- Get into the "Qty.Reqd." field and enter the quantity of the part required for the kit.
- In the "Notes:" field, enter any applicable notes for this line item.
Continue adding part numbers until all parts required for this kit have been added.
- Press <Esc> and <Accept> to save changes.
Now you have created the kit part number, you now need to build the kit and put a quantity in stock.
Building Specific Products
Go to "Stock Control" -> "Maintenance Options" -> "Kit File Maintenance" -> "Build Specific Products"
- Enter in the part number of the kit you wish to build in the "Stock Code :" field and <Enter>
- In the "Quantity Assembled :" field, enter in the quantity of the kit you wish to build and <F2> to assemble.
