Assembly Build - Component Inventory Detail Defaulting
We're using WMS for Work Order Picking.
Our flow is: create a work order → (WMS) pick the components and stage them into our Manufacturing WIP bin → then we build (UI) the assembly from there.
We recently set up preferred bins so picking and putaway work properly. Ever since, when we go to build, it ignores the WIP bin the parts were just staged into and instead tries to pull them from their normal shelf pick bins. We're unique in that our parts are for sale, and for builds. Maintaining preferred bins is important.
So it feels like the work order picking step is now pointless; we pick everything into WIP, then the build sends us straight back to the shelf.
Has anyone hit this? Is there a setting to make the build consume from the WIP/committed bin instead of the item's preferred bin, or are we building it the wrong way?
