Configure Items for Manufacturing
The Item Master Data record is the foundation of manufacturing configuration in GoldFinch. While there are many fields on the Item Record, the focus for manufacturing setup will be on the Details and Requirements Planning sections. Below is a description of key fields related to manufacturing:
Field Name | Explanation |
---|
Inventory Class | Defines whether the item is a Raw Material, Subassembly, or Finished Good. This classification dictates how the item is used in manufacturing and inventory management.
|
Lot Tracked | Check this box if the item should be lot tracked throughout the system. When enabled, lots are required for all transactions, including inbound, outbound, movements, and the consumption of raw materials and output of subassemblies and finished goods.
|
Replenishment System | Determines how the item is replenished, either via Purchase or Work Order. All manufactured items should be marked as Work Order to be brought into inventory through the production process.
