Michael,

Sounds complicated. Any chance of just putting all 4 items on the shop
floor and letting the line use and reorder as necessary? Puts the
management closest to the problem (assuming of course there are no gross
differences in cost etc).

Regards

Konrad

Say I have Finished Good Part 433       

It's BOM calls for component 
Part 4500XX     10 Qty Per

Or it could use any combination of  
Part 4500AA 6 qty per and 4500BB 4 qty per 
Part 4500CC 8 qty per and 4500DD 2 qty per 
Part 4500AA 4 qty per and 4500DD 6 qty per 
Etc...

Does anyone know of a user exit during MO creation?  We need to check
the Item availability of these combinations and select the one where we
have the most on-hand to be released to the MO.

I thought of using alternate BOM's and have the planner check each combo
but that would be to much work.

Any ideas would KBC help in this situation?
