By-products tab
The By-products tab of a production document contains the list of by-products that were created during production.
By-products are additional outputs of manufacturing. For example, metal shavings are by-products of the bushing production.
This tab is only available if Process type is set to Convert from Work-in-progress.
To learn about the By-products tab fields, see the following table:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Transfer to (by-products) | A warehouse (and optionally, a storage bin) where the by-products will be stored. The Storage bin field is only available if the Inventory accounting by storage bins checkbox is selected in Settings > Purchases/Warehouse. |
| Product | A by-product name. The list of values is based on the Products catalog and includes products of the Inventory type. |
| Variant | A by-product characteristic such as color or size. You can specify a variant if accounting by variants is enabled and applies to the by-product (in the by-product's product card, the Variants checkbox is selected on the Additional data tab). The list of values is based on the Product variants catalog. |
| Batch | A by-product batch code. It is used to track by-products by batches. You can specify a batch if accounting by batches is enabled and applies to the by-product (in the by-product's card, the Batches checkbox is selected on the Additional data tab). |
| Price | Price per by-product unit. |
| Quantity | Quantity of by-product units that were produced. If you fill by-products from a bill of materials (BOM), Quantity is automatically calculated by the following formula: Quantity = by-product Quantity from BOM × operation Quantity from the Operations tab / operation Quantity from BOM |
| Unit | A unit of measure for the by-product. It is prefilled with a base unit from the by-product card. You can specify another unit if a by-product has additional units. |
| Amount | Total price of all by-product units. Calculated automatically as Quantity × Price. You can specify the amount manually. |
| Currency | A currency for the by-product's price. |
| GL accounts | GL accounts for recording by-product inventory balance. They are available if the default accounting is applied (Use default type of accounting is selected in Settings > Company). |
