Production BOM`s

Posted By

Good Afternoon

We Create a parent product at one site (Site X) for R 10, With two Components of R 5 .We then transfer this Parent product to another site (Site Z) and disassemble the product there .The Cost of the Components are different at this site lets say R 7 each. So the Disassembly journal will be for R 14 at Site Z

So there will be a Variance on our Assembles account. 

Is there maybe  a parameter that needs to be active  to enable us to Disassemble at the same cost as the Assembly irregardless of the Site cost ?

    Using Standard Cost: An assembly/disassembly does not usually have a particular account, it all goes to Inventory, WIP, Raw Materials and Variance not absorbed. The variance not absorbed will show a credit if you had your standard cost with labor and your assembly without labor. Your destination sites will all go to standard cost, there are no variances there.

    Hi Thanks for the feedback.
    The trick is that we are not using The Manufacturing Module and our Valuation method is FIFO. Our Accounting part is setup as follows -
    When Assembly is done Stock is Credited and WIP - Assembly's is Debited for the components but when the Parent product is finished the journal is Stock Debit and WIP - Assembly Credit. So there should not be a balance and never is. But when Disassembly is done at another site (With Different Component prices) it creates a Difference that keeps on growing in the WIP - Assembly's account.
    What we want from Sage is that when the disassembly is done at another site , it should use the original assembly cost.

    I see what you mean.
    Did you check with your integrator if they can modify the automatic journal? It seems to me quite a complicated change.
    Another option would be to play with the price lists, If you noticed, the Disassembly screen has a price entry for every component, there is a possibility that could be loaded using a "Price list" that matches your other site.
