RE: Can this be done -- MAPICS-L

Bob,

Actually, Selva's solution will still work for you, even without MRP.  MRP 
would be a mechanism to determine what to order, but you already have something 
in place that handles this.  The COM, IM, PDM solution will drive demand and 
you can handle the supply side however you are doing it now.

Selva,
        Thanks for the reply. Well we have COM, IM and PDM but no MRP, not one 
of
the things that is top on the priority list. Maybe the Kits will have to be
the way we go.

Bob,

If I assume that you use COM and MRP, It looks simple if you define a BOM
for C with Part A and Part B as components underneath and create customer
order on C, which will drive MRP to buy Part A and Part B. You can release
a MO on C to make C from Part A and B, and then ship from COM on C. If you
need to sell Part A and Part B separately, you may need to create Customer
order on Part A and Part B.

Regards, Selva

Can this be done






Good Morning,
                 Our marketing Dept has come up with an interesting
problem for us and I am
looking to the group for some thoughts.

We have a product that consists of two parts in boxes call them Part A and
Part B. We buy these from two different vendors and they come to us each
packed in its own box.  Sales wants to be able to Sell the two parts as
Part
C in our catalog, however Part B may also a some point be sold as Part B.

                 Is there a way in MAPICS to be able to Order Part C but
have the pick lists
show Part A and Part B, but the order show Part C. This is because if we
EDI
the ASNs and Invoices the Item must be Part C as that is what the customer
ordered. This will also apply to costs and inventory issues.

Thanks in advance
