Hi,

I'm new to FA. Is there any POS (Point of Sale) for FA ?  May be something like PhpPOS. Or is there any other POS can be integrated to FA ?

Thanks

Hello,

You should create an Item, pens, and use the Inventory adjustment (or POs) to add your stock of pens.

You can use manufacturing simple assembly to create your various boxes. And for every box you create a bom. Then create work orders as you need them.

Every time you create a work order, the pens are reduced from stock and the new box is increased.

If you have a Training Co. you can experiment with this until you are satisfied.

Hi Joe,

Thank you for reply. I've created Item (pen) with : Category = Components, Item Type = Purchased, Unit of Measure = Each. 
a) Shall I create a new Unit of Measure, ex. Box8, Box10  & use it instead of  'Each' ?
b) At manufacturing button, I can't see 'simple assembly'  to create the boxes. I have FA version  2.3.4.  Or I have misunderstood it ? Can you give example for this ?
c) Assumes that the company is just TRADING company, but I still need to create BOM for the items ?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm new in FA & sorry for my bad english. I have problems on setting the qty of the products & I want to know the Inventory.

Example:  I sell pens, I want to sell it in Box or Each, depend on customer.  Box PenA  has 8 pens inside it. Box PenB has 10 pens inside it.  If someone want to buy 14 penA and 14 penB, I can give him  1 Box of PenA + 6 pieces/Each of PenA & 1 box PenB + 4 pieces/Each of PenB.

How to set it in FA?  Must I set it in BOM, Item Category, Items ? What else ? Where can I set the qty of the box PenA & PenB ?
How to know the Inventory (may be in pieces/each or better in Box + pieces) , will FA convert the box to pieces & after calculation of buying & selling, it will convert it again to Box ? Where can see the inventory / stock left  at warehouse?

I'm sure it can be done in FA, but don't know how .... sad ... Any idea?

Thank you very much.

Under the Salesman, in Sales tab, you can set the salesman to 0%. Breakpoint 1000 and then 1%. Further operations are not possible.

If you want more sophisticated sales reports you can select the Excel as destination and use columns for further calculations.

Many thanks Joe.

The script file en_US-new.sql is empty for transactions. Only the Chart of Accounts and a couple of managed records, that are easily changed.

I don't know why your script-file is filled with transactions. Are you sure you didn't use the en_US-demo.sql, whitch is meant as a training script?

Hi Joe,

Thank you very much for your reply. I know it's strange, that a "new" sql contain the transactions, but it's real as I tested the new installed FA.  At the first time, for testing & easy learning,  I'm using the "demo.sql" . After some hours, I drop the database, create it again (the same database name),  and now using the "new" sql (I'm not sure actually that the database name can cause this).  OK, I will try to drop the existing database & create new one using another name, then using the "new" sql  for this new database. Hope it will running well without transactions ....

Thanks Joe.

Hi,

I'm new to FA. I've installed FA 2.3.4 under LAMP, but still don't know how to set the bonus for sales ? Example: If one salesman can sell above $1000 in a month, he will get $10 bonus or 1% bonus. If he can sell above $2000, he will get  $10 + $15  ($10 for first $1000 & $15 for the second $1000). Is it possible in FA ?

Please help

Hi,

I'm new to FA. Nice, thanks to developers.  I've installed the last version 2.3.4  under LAMP. I got problem installing the SQL file via web-based installation procedure. So, I installed it manually via Mysql prompt.  I changed the word  TYPE=....   to ENGINE=....  to make the installation success.
I choosed the file " en_US-new.sql " , but there are still some transactions. So, I delete the entry of some tables like : debtor_trans, debtor_trans_details, supp_trans, supp_invoice_items, bank_trans, budget_trans, gl_trans, purch_data, purch_order_details, purch_orders, sales_order_details, sales_orders, cust_branch.  Do I missed something ? Is there really a sql file for NEW beginning company without transaction ?

Thanks
