Dears,
We are a business type of Make-To-Order and Engineer-To-Order, so we have created multiple items as non-stock type for the final products we make, but when tried to create BOM we were not able to get them in the items list to pick from !!! is BOM shall be stock item? why? as we are ETO company normally we are not stocking products, any ideas?
1 MTS (Make To Stock Planning): standard product made to a forecast before any committed orders come in
2 ATO (Assemble To Order or Finish To Order): standard product where some components are held in stock and the finished product is finished after the order comes in
3 MTO (Make To Order Production): standard products not held in inventory and made after a committed order comes in
4 CTO (Configure To Order): The standard product has variations; as many as not to justify the creation of a part number for every variation but not as many as to make the underlying structure too complex to handle
5 ETO (Engineer To Order): complex structures and customer specified projects which were never built before and make it impossible to be handled with standard variations.
As of now, I think handle
1st & 2nd business process situations normal way.
3rd may be not mapped as of now, in future erpnext team make it.
4th number handle make BOM different version and handle it.
5th you handle with project DocType in ERPNext.
Well am not fully confident what i say coz i am not try such kind of scenario except 1st 2nd 4th
