Configure Item Routing

Overview

Routings are a list of instructions that outline the steps required to produce a manufactured item. Routings allow you to define the stages in which various components are consumed, account for capacity and labor costs, and indicate where external services like co-packing are used.

Routing Versions

If you need multiple routing versions, you can configure a Routing Version and associate it with specific Item Routings. You can create a new Routing Version directly from the Item Page.

Item Routings

Item Routings can be used with or without a Routing Version. You can create Item Routings from either the Routing Version Page or the Item Page.

Required Fields for Item Routings:

  • Parent: The parent item being manufactured.

  • Operation No.: Entered manually, typically starting from 10 and increasing by 10 for each subsequent operation (e.g., 10, 20, 30, etc.).

  • Work Center: The work center where the operation is performed.

  • Per: The quantity of items produced or processed in each operation.

  • Unit of Measure: Defines the measurement unit used for the operation (e.g., pieces, cases, batches).

Once configured, routing lines appear in the Work Order Lines when you add a parent item as the output item on a work order.
