Issue stock to a Works Order to record the stock components or raw materials that were used in manufacture.
Issuing stock to a Works Order reduces the quantity in stock of each item and increases the build cost on the Works Order by the value of the stock that is being issued.
If the Allocate Stock option is ticked in Works Order Settings, components can optionally be allocated to the Works Order before being issued.
If the Allocate Stock option is not ticked, the components cannot be allocated before being issued.
When issuing stock to the Works Order, it is not possible to issue more stock of each component to the order than is available as Free Stock in the source warehouse(s).
Use the Issue Stock by Stock Item screen to issue stock of a component item to one or more Works Orders.
Outcomes
- The component stock item is issued to the order(s), reducing its stock level in Stock Control.
- The Issued quantities are increased and, if allocation is enabled, the Allocated quantities for each component are decreased. This is visible in the Components tab of the Works Order record.
- The Works Order Status will be set to Issued if all components are now fully issued, or Part Issued if any components are not fully issued.
