Item versions#
General#
The item versions in KUMAVISION factory365 extend the item management of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central1.
An item version can be used to map the product life cycle of an item.
The item versions are an informal summary of an item or an item variant and its production master data (bill of materials and routing).
The determination of the production master data is not changed by the item version, i.e. the production master data (bill of materials/routing) is determined via the item or stock data card.
Note
Please note, item versions are not stocked.
The following sections describe how to use and manage item versions in KUMAVISION factory365.
Setup#
Item version type#
The item version types are used to classify the item versions later on. To define these first, call up the "Article version type" page via the user search.
Via "New" in the menu ribbon, you can define a new item version type by entering the "Code" and "Description".
Item version#
The "item version" allows you to map the product life cycle of an item. By assigning an "item version type", the item versions can be classified so that they can be distinguished from one another.
To define a new item version, call up the "Article version" page via the user search. You can define a new item version using the table below via "New" in the ribbon:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Item No. | In this field, enter the item number for which you want to create a version. |
| Variant Code | If the selected item is variant-managed, you can define the variant of the item for which you want to create a new version here. |
| Version Code | Enter an "abbreviation" for the item version to be created. |
| Description | Gives the description of the selected item. |
| Item Version Type | By assigning an item version type, you have the option of classifying the item version. |
| Material | Here you can assign a material to the item version. |
| Status | Indicates the status of the item version. Three statuses are assigned here: New The item version is currently being edited. Certified The item version has a released status. No changes can be made in this status. Expired The item version is no longer valid. You can change the status via the ribbon by selecting "New", "Certified" and "Expired". |
| Version Starting Date | Specifies the start date of a version. |
| Drawing No. | Enter a drawing number (if available) for the version. |
| Drawing Format | Specify a drawing format (if available) for the version. |
| Drawing Index | Enter a drawing index (if available) for the version. |
| Manufacturer Code | Enter a manufacturer code (if available) for the version. |
| Manufacturer Item Code | Enter a manufacturer item number (if available) for the version. |
| Delivery Standard | Enter a delivery standard (if available) for the version. |
| Norm | Specify a standard (if available) for the version. |
| Production BOM No. | Enter the production BOM number. |
| Production BOM Version Code | Enter the production BOM version code. |
| Routing No. | Enter the work center number. |
| Routing Version Code | Enter the routing version code. |
The item including item version can be specified in the procurement process.
An item version is automatically determined by comparing the production BOM number, the production BOM version code, the routing number and the routing version code of the item version with the item or the stock data.
Note
The production BOM number, the production BOM version code, the routing number and the routing version code stored in the item version are not transferred to the production order. These are only used to determine the item version.
Note
Please note that the item version type of the consuming item is checked to ensure that it matches the item version type to be reported.
The item version does not differentiate the stock level of the item. If it is necessary to differentiate the stock on the item at item version level, the item variant can be managed in addition to the item version. This means that the stock level is taken into account for the item variants and therefore also for the corresponding item version.
Functions in the ribbon#
