Kit File MaintenanceApplication Overview
The Kit File Maintenance application allows the user to design and maintain kit structures. A kit is essentially a flat bill of material that maintains single level relationships between a parent item and a group of components.
This application can be useful to businesses that assemble end items from purchased components. It gives them some of the advantages of a bill of material package without the expense or complexity.
Kits may be ordered through the Order Entry application in the Customer Order Processing package. The user is allowed to adjust kit pricing and may print components on Order Acknowledgements, Quotes and Invoices. If the Rollup Price field in Item File Maintenance is set to Y for the kit item, the kit's price will be calculated as the total of the components' prices. If the Rollup Price field is set to N, the kit's price will be taken from the Customer Order Processing Price Code File, if there is an appropriate price code on file. If not, the price will be taken from the Selling Price field in the Item File.
Making changes to kit component quantities and adding or deleting components is not allowed during Order Entry in Customer Order Processing.
Kits may be made available at locations other than the default location contained in the Item File by adding locations in the Location Control File Maintenance application. When setting up alternate locations, be sure that all components of the kit are also available in those locations. Kit Item Structure ImportThis is an add-on feature. This utility can be used to either import a new kit structure or modify an existing kit structure. Modifying an existing kit structure may cause a quantity allocation integrity issue, if the parent item has activity. Since this problem can be easily resolved through the Reset Qty Allocation utility, import utility will only give a warning message when this happens. Contact Netcellent or your Elliott Reseller for more information about this utility.
