by ERP Manufacturing Team

After the summer break we go back to talking about the peculiarities of Mago.net and its many parameters that give you much scope of configurability of workflow, especially in the production area. In particular, we mention here the storages involved in external processing.

Keep track of materials and record their movements during all phases of processing is always a need strongly felt by those engaged in production. The need becomes necessary when the processes are moving out.
Mago.net, following a development plan to meet as much as possible the wishes of the users was, in time, suitably enriched.

More specifically, the procedure "Subcontractor Delivery Note Generation" suggests as storage of departure that shown on the inventory reason used to materials handling.
Enabling the parameter "Suggest storages depending on the item nature" the storage of departure is actually chosen by the nature of item drawing on information given in the sheet Storages in Manufacturing Parameters.

You can get a further level of detail regarding the storage of arrival of the inventory reason involved in the "Subcontractor Delivery Note”. It is possible, in this case, connect directly to a vendor a storage simply activating the parameter Use a different storage for each subcontractor. In connection with this setting must specify the storage in the supplier master data. The result you get now is to have inventory entries where storage of arrival is same joined with the supplier, without the need for specificator.
