Build Assembly

Our inventory is maintained using 4 Inventory Sites.  We are trying to build an assembly at Site A.  There are enough components at Site A, but QB says that there are not enough components on hand.  I believe that QB is looking at the Overall Total Qty on Hand and not just the Site A inventory.  Site B has a negative number of components so the overall Total is not enough.  Is there a way to set up the Builds so that they only look at the Assembly Inventory Site that is entered on the Build Assembly screen.

Hi @whs37,

 

Welcome to the Community. I can share information about setting up builds in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Currently, the option to set up the system to only look at a specific site is unavailable. The system is designed to keep track of the total quantity on hand of the items.

 

The only workaround is to adjust the inventory quantity or select the Mark Pending or Make Pending option temporarily (see screenshot below). Once you have enough items in stock, you can go back to this build transaction and select Remove Pending Status.

 

 

I've attached a link you can visit to keep track of your inventory through reports in QuickBooks: Customize item reports.

 

Fill me in if you have more questions about building and tracking finished goods in the Desktop version. I'm always here to help. Take care.
