We have broken down the automations into three main areas. These automations work with each other so to understand the complete workflow, take a look at the diagram below!
Kitting
- When kitting inventory, if the kit's Current Location is set, then the kitted inventory's location is updated to the kit's current location.
- When moving the kit's Current Location, the kitted inventory will move with it.
- When changing the status of the kit to DELIVERED, update the Current Location of the kit to the Deliver To Location. Coupled with the above, this means all of the kitted inventory will move to the Deliver To Location.
Installation
- When installing inventory, the installed inventory's location is updated to the assembly's location.
- When moving the assembly, all installed inventory moves with it. This occurs through the whole depth of the aBOM.
Runs
- When starting a Run Step, the WIP assembly is moved to the location of the Run Step. If there is installed inventory on the WIP assembly, they will also move as discussed above.
