  • Moving a BOM to History

    Is there a way to change an old REV of a BOM to history in order for the inactive REVs to not show on every inquiry? We have been using Sage for a long time and some of our BOMs are no longer active as we no longer build those items. We need to keep the…
  • Ability to use the same component with different QC status in BOMs setup to achieve the same FG with different grades or different FG!

    Hi X3 community, Please vote for this idea if you have encountered the same issue. My client is using a grading system which may changes frequently (it is not a set grading system). So adding a new product code for each new grading (when introduced…
  • Setting up intermediate codes for process driven BoMs that allow intermediates to be tracked but do not prompt a allocation upon WO generation.

    Hello All, So I'm trying to setup a BoM for a process driven product formula which would look similar to this: Phase 1 Instructions (Component type: Text, Type: Active) Input 1 Weight (Component: Normal, Type: Physical) Input 2 Weight (Component: Normal…
  • Lot Numbers

    I need to come up with a way to consume containers (what our product is packaged in) when a work order is closed. I have thought keeping the current BOMs for the "master BOM" (bulk BOM if you will) for each product and then doing a second BOM that puts…

  • Proper transaction for raw material, shipped, processed off-premise, then shipped back for assembly

  • Creating Multi-level BOMs

    We have a need to insert a BOM that we will make, and then put that BOM into another (higher level) BOM with other line items. The sub-BOM has 9 line items, and when that is finished/manufactured, it will be part of a BOM with 18 additional line items…
  • Restrict adding unplanned materials and operations

    Would be great if we could have a setting which restricts adding unplanned materials and operations during production tracking. Currently on routings there is a WO management mode where we can restrict addition of components and operations in WO. Would…
  • Packaging Consumption in Work Orders

  • Improve Manufacturing - maybe even rewriting the module

    Well lets start by addressing the elephant in the room, the manufacturing module really should have been "spruced up" and improved, this is long overdue. A lot of customers are having to pay extra to move to 3rd party providers providing manufacturing…
  • X3PU9 - BOM Phantom Functionality - extend to include Costing Lines

    Standard Phantom functionality within Production BOMs and Works Order will "explode" Normal Component lines from a Phantom BOM and include them on a Works Order when raised. However Costing lines on Phantom BOMs are ignored when a Works Order is raised…
  • Component Where Used- Filter by Active BOMs

    I would like to see this function have the ability to show only BOMs which are marked as active. Currently it shows all BOMs in perpetuity which is a waste of time checking them all.
