Not really.
Your Finished Item and the Bill of Material item is the same item - same description.
The Production Order converts one item into another item.
Also your “Add non-inventory cost into production” are listing Sales accounts.
Normally these items are for transferring costs from expenses into part of the inventory cost.
Perhaps if you can explain what you are trying to do, then you can be guided further.
I do screen printing for this order which the tshirt i bought and is in the inventory. I don’t want to show the separate price for each item (screen printing & tshirt) in the invoice. Like this
what you have purchased (tshirts) is your raw materials.
what you are selling should be your finished goods
so you better create separate inventory items.
the bill of materials is to have your purchased items plus the non inventory cost of screen printing and embroidery.
then when you create a sales invoice you just show the finished goods. (custom tshirts)
create separate inventory items of unprinted tshirts and printed tshirts
make purchase invoices of the t shirts you purchased
copy the purchase invoice to goods receipts.
create a production order with bill of materials being your purchased items and add the non inventory cost of screen printing and embroidery.
the finished goods would show up in inventory
create a sales invoice (of only the finished tshirts, the printing cost is already added in the item’s production cost)
@DSM_Enterprise also i just noticed that in the non inventory costs you have added sales accounts - you should create a cost of goods sold group in the chart of accounts that has Screen printing and embroidery separately
read this Manager Cloud
It’s been 3 months since i used Manager. Everytime i need to update or key in data i must end up here in forum. It seems so easy when read those topics yet when i do it myself so many errors
Well the chart of accounts does look messy. If you do not have a background in accounting, it is important to get an accountant’s advice in your locality to get that right. Also you might need help filing taxes. There maybe someone in the forum who might be able to help you prepare a chart of accounts. After that is done, it is mostly repetitive work.
Thank you for comment. I already listed in inventory for 517 products with various sizes & color. But do you mean that i need to make another inventory for each type of tshirt? Like I have 517 plain tshirt, then i need to create another 517 printed tshirt? I still not clear on production order issue. Perhaps some screenshots would help.
It seems that my chart of account is where i need to fix it first then will go amend all the purchase invoice, goods receipts, production order etc.
You do not have to create 517 new inventory items for printed t-shirt. Just one new inventory item for printed t-shirt will be enough.
I assume you make printed t-shirt against order and sell it right away. So you will not be holding stock of printed t-shirts. you can just edit the description of t-shirt in the invoice as per sale.
If you are holding stock then you can create separate inventory items for easy tracking. Else
@DSM_Enterprise Unless you want Manager to tell you how many of each size/color T-shirt you have, you can get away with just single inventory item which will simply hold all T-shirt sizes/colors. It’s about how granular you want to go.
More granular means more hassle setting-up and recording it but then you get more granular output (e.g. ability to say “I have 3x T-Shirts of size M in blue color”) without actually going to physically count your inventory.
