Assembly is a process where a company manufactures a product by putting the components together without processing them in any way.

The process steps may vary depending on your company's business needs. In general, the process starts with a production order and ends with a production document that reflects actual product assembly.

1C:Drive supports the following process steps:

• Set up Assembly process.
• Issue production orders.
• Monitor production order statuses.
• Check component availability.
• Replenish components.
• Assemble products.

Setting up Assembly process

Before registering your assembly transactions, do the following:

• Enable production functionality.
  To do it, go to Settings. Then, under Accounting settings, click Production and select the Enable Production subsystem checkbox.
• If you are planning to assemble new products or consume new components, register them in the Products catalog.
  You also have the following options:
  • If you want to differentiate products or components by characteristics such as color or size, set up product variants.
  • If you want to track product batches, set up batches.
  • If you want to track serial numbers of product units, set up serial numbers.
• If you are planning to use custom statuses for production orders, go to Settings. Then, under Accounting settings, click Production and select the Several Production order statuses checkbox.

Issuing production orders

When you want your company to assemble products from components, issue a production order for the products. To register this step, create a production order.

Monitoring production order statuses

To ensure that you fulfill the production orders fully and on time, do any of the following:

• Monitor production order statuses in the Production orders list.
• View Production status report or Production orders statement.

Checking component availability

After creating the production order, check whether all components are available at your warehouses.

If this step is not necessary (for example, if the components are guaranteed to be always available), skip this step and proceed to assembling the products.

Replenishing components

If some of the components are not available, replenish the missing components.

Assembling products

Once all components are in stock, assemble them into products. To register the assembly, create a production document.

Reports

1C:Drive offers several reports for analyzing the assembly activities performed by your company. They include:

Report	Description	How to open
