Subcontracting services provided process
Subcontracting services provided process is a process where your company manufactures products from the components supplied by the customer.
The process steps may vary depending on your company's business needs. In general, the process starts with a subcontractor order received and ends with a bank receipt for the manufactured products.
1C:Drive supports the following process steps:
- Set up Subcontracting services provided process.
- Receive subcontractor orders.
- Monitor subcontractor order statuses.
- Receive components from customer.
- Manufacture products.
- Transfer products to customer.
- Return components to customer.
- Issue invoice to customer.
- Receive payment for manufactured products.
Setting up Subcontracting services provided process
Before registering your subcontracting transactions, do the following:
- Enable functionality to provide subcontracting services.
To do it, go to Settings. Then, under Accounting settings, click Sales and select the Provide subcontracting services checkbox.
If the checkbox is grayed out, it means you have Production subsystem disabled. To enable it, go to Settings. Then, under Accounting settings, click Production and select the Enable Production subsystem checkbox. Then, go back and try again. - If you are planning to manufacture goods for new subcontracting customers, register them as customers in the Counterparties catalog.
- If you are planning to manufacture new products or receive 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 product variants.
- If you want to track product batches, set batches.
- If you are planning to apply differentiated prices (such as wholesale and retail prices), register various sale prices in the Prices catalog.
- If you are planning to use bills of materials to quickly manage components that you receive from a customer, go to Settings. Then, under Accounting settings, click Production and select the Enable Production subsystem checkbox.
This is highly recommended because using bills of materials helps to fill in documents faster. - If you are planning to use custom statuses for subcontractor orders received, go to Settings. Then, under Accounting settings, click Sales and select the Several subcontractor order received statuses checkbox.
Receiving subcontractor orders
When your company agrees to manufacture goods ordered by a customer from the components supplied by the customer, you need to register the order in 1C:Drive. To do this, create a subcontractor order received.
Monitoring subcontractor order statuses
To ensure that you receive the components and ship the finished goods in time, do any of the following:
- Monitor subcontractor order statuses in the Subcontractor orders received list.
- View the Subcontractor order received statement report.
Receiving components from customer
After your company accepts a subcontracting order from a customer, the customer will transfer the components required for production. To register receipt of the components, create a goods receipt.
Manufacturing products
Once all components are in stock, you can start production of ordered goods. To register the production, create a production order.
Transferring products to customer
Once your company has manufactured the ordered products, transfer them to the customer. To register the transfer of products, create a goods issue.
Returning components to customer
In some situations, your company might need to return all or some of the components to the customer. For example, if several component items are found to be defective and need to be replaced. To register the return of components, create a goods issue.
Issuing invoices to customer
Once your company has manufactured the ordered products, send the customer an invoice for payment of subcontracting services. To register the invoice, create a subcontractor invoice issued.
Receiving payment for manufactured products
After issuing an invoice to the customer, receive payment for the manufactured products. To register this, create a bank receipt.
Subcontracting workplace
1C:Drive provides the Subcontracting orders received processing workplace to help you process subcontractor orders received by your company.
In the workplace, you can quickly generate many subcontracting documents, such as:
- Goods receipts for receipt of components from customers.
- Production orders for production of the ordered products.
- Goods issues (transfer) for transfer of manufactured products to customers.
- Goods issues (return) for return of components to customers.
- Subcontractor invoices issued for issue of invoices to customers.
Documents generated in the workplace are prefilled with data from the source subcontractor orders. This eliminates the need for manual document filling, saving time and effort.
Each workspace tab reflects a step of the subcontracting order registration process. Each tab displays the subcontracting orders that are ready for the related process step. For example, Goods issue tab only displays the orders where finished products are already manufactured and delivery to the customer is expected.
This provides guidance on generating the subcontracting documents, and also helps you track the progress of each subcontractor order received.
To open the workplace:
- Go to Sales.
- Under Subcontracting services provided, click Subcontractor orders received processing.
