Field or Control |
Description |
---|---|
Op Seq (operation sequence) |

Description |
---|---|
Assembly Qty (assembly quantity) |
Enter the end item quantity in the standard UOM of the item as you defined it on the Item Definition page. In general, set the assembly quantity to 1 and enter the component quantity that is included in one unit of the end item. However, if you typically install and service the end item in quantities greater than one, you might define a service assembly in terms of the normal installation and service quantity. For example, a manufacturer and distributor of speakers might produce and stock speakers in inventory as single units. Yet because a customer always buys at least two speakers at a time, the speaker company might choose to set up a service assembly with an assembly quantity of two. |
Component ID |
Select a service assembly component. You must establish the component as an active item using the Item Definition page or the Item Primary enterprise integration point. In addition, the component item must conform to these restrictions:
