No, the sub-assemblies would never be shipped by themselves.    I guess I
should clarify a couple of points.    First of all, we're using KBC, so we
would be looking at the resulting item numbers generated out of KBC.
Secondly, we would only be looking at certain items identified by use of
item class code.    These items would be the top level items, so we would
then be checking availability of the lower level items (sub-assemblies).
All lower level sub-assemblies must be available in order for us to
auto-generate the MO.    There would be no assembly involved prior to
shipping.   The appropriate sub-assemblies would simply be pulled off the
shelf and shipped together in order to fulfill the requirement based on the
KBC generated top-level item.

Are the sub-assemblies available to ship?  If so, why not consider COM kits?
One of our clients required auto MOs from COs, and we wrote something for
them.  It sounds like there are several options to choose from.
