Subcontracting Assembly Page
As an alternative to opening multiple documents to complete a subcontracting process in an assembly order, the Subcontracting Assembly page manages and controls each step of an external assembly, including supply of components. Access the page from the Assembly Order or Assemble-to-Order-Lines page by choosing the Subcontracting action on the Home menu
In the Subcontracting Assembly page, the Subcontracting Worksheet, Transfer Orders, and Purchase Orders can be created and opened.
The Subcontracting Assembly page is basically the same as the Subcontracting Prod. Order page.
The fields on the General and Schedule FastTabs are based on the Production Order and Assembly Order, with the exception of the Subcontr. Wksh. Exists toggle on the General FastTab. This field indicates if a Subcontracting Worksheet for the assembly order has been created.
