Inventory Management

I am new to Sage and still getting to know how things work in it. We run a plastic chemical company and our final products come from 4 different raw materials. For example lets say 70% of Product A, 27.5% of Product B, 0.5% of Product C and 2% of Product D go into production of the final product. How do I go about making posting to adjust at the end of each shift the remaining inventory count so that we up to date data? What are the posting I need to do in SAGE 50?

  • Are you using Sage 50 for Canada or the US? I think we may have a better chance of getting this question answered in the Sage 50 Support Forum (see the green bar at top), so I'm going to move this post--but need to know which country to put it in. Thank you!

  • If I understand correctly, you probably have Assemblies already set up each final products, using the percentage of each raw material. So you would go to Tasks, Assemblies, then Build the number of each assembly created. That will reduce the inventory of the items used, and put the final assembly(ies) into inventory.
