maybe we can have a more easy way to. like it can be made in 1 manufacture only, or maybe something like a repackage type of manufacturing, from a big bulk to smaller sizes... as long as you have the items, it will automatically add to the smaller sizes and deduct from the big bulk

Maybe we need to look at WHY the manufacturing process did not work.

In my site I buy in 20kg buckets and repackage into 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1 and 5 lb packages.

I do two processes, first I manufacture my 1 x 20kg into 44 x 1lb and then
build the other products from the 1lb units.

Hello Zedd.
Start by creating 3 items, 25pack - 5pack and 1pack. If you buy 5 25sack from a supplier, first by PO to let's say 100. Then Receive the items from the supplier.
Now make a negative adjustment by 1 of the 25pack. This should go without problems. Did you forget to receive the items?
And use the 25pack to fill the 1pack and 5pack so it gets a total of 25 by positive adjustments.
I have tried this and this went like a charm.

joe, like if i have 5 sacks of the 25-kilo, i'll repack the 25-kilo to few bags of 1-kilo and few of 5-kilo pack.
it won't permit me a negative inventory, or to deduct 1 from the 5 sacks i have.

What about making a negative adjustment with your item of 25 kg so it become 0. And then create 2 new items, one with 1 kg and one with 5 kg and make the positive adjustments on these. Then don't use the 25 kg item any more.

in the item adjustment note, what is the positive/negative adjustment for?

my scenario is this:

i need to convert my 25-kilo flour into 1-kilo and 5-kilo packing. In my current system i can adjust the inventory: deduct 1 bag to my 25-kilo and add some 1-kilo and 5-kilo item. in front accouting, i cannot do this, i tried the manufacturing process but this won't work with my system.

Is there a work around for this adjustment?

Thanks,
Zedd
