Available To Build
Available To Build (ATB) SuiteApp helps manufacturers to see the quantity of assemblies they can make and how many kits they can assemble with their current on-hand inventory. The SuiteApp evaluates based on end assembly and sub-assembly component inventory, helping manufacturers to determine the quantity they can provide to customers. Manufactures can analyze how many assemblies, or kits can assemble right now from current component on-hand inventory from top-level Bill of Materials (BOM) or the fully exploded BOM.
You can use the SuiteApp functionality from the Sales Order, and Item 360 SuiteApp pages. The ATB content is shown on a portlet within the Manufacturing and Sales pages of the Item 360 Dashboard page. Also, you can calculate ATB value at top level or all level items under Sales Order page.
Following are the key considerations for the Available to Build SuiteApp:
-
ATB value is calculated for assembly item and kit items.
-
ATB is calculated by considering either top level or all levels of the BOM.
-
For assembly items, the component details are obtained from the BOM. The Advanced Bill of Materials feature is required to calculate ATB for assembly items. Otherwise, the SuiteApp will consider only on-hand quantity of an assembly when calculating ATB value.
-
The SuiteApp does not consider any other supply and demand types to calculate ATB.
-
You must have Item 360 SuiteApp installed in your account to use Available to Build SuiteApp functionality through Item 360 SuiteApp.
