Segment 3 – Business Central Feature: Assembly Orders Vs Production Orders (Manufacturing)

About Production Orders (Job or Work Orders)

About Assemble to Order

An assembly BOM defines which items and resources are required to assemble the parent item.  A resource cannot be a machine or work center.

You do not need to have a resource defined, meaning the assembly BOM will simply contain a list of sub-components.  If a customer requests a slightly different version of an item, you have the flexibility to modify the assembly order on a per-sales order basis.  This is a good option if you only need to plan for the combination of simple components, without the need for manufacturing.

You typically use assemble to order for items that you do not want to stock because you expect to customize them to customer requests or because you want to minimize the inventory carrying cost.
