Working with Sets
In this part: The following topics describe how to create, change, delete, and display sets.
- Introducing Sets provides a brief overview of sets and how to select the set tables.
- Entering Set Information (WSET) describes a set; how to scan for, create, and delete sets; and how to work with set component items.
- Entering Variable Set Information (WVST) defines a variable set and includes how to scan for, create, and delete variable sets, and how to work with variable set groups.
- Entering Finished Goods Information (WFGD) defines a finished good and includes how to scan for, create, and delete finished goods sets, and how to work with finished good component items.
Introducing Sets
Purpose: There are three types of sets or kits:
Sets are a group of items which are assembled when the set is picked and packed. Sets can be made up of items which are sold individually. Each of these component items appear on the pick slip and are packed together. Component items might not appear on the same pick slip, but the picks are created at the same time.
For more information: See Entering Set Information (WSET).
Variable sets are lists of items that customers can choose from to make up the set they want to purchase. Like sets, variable sets are assembled when the set variable is picked and packed. The items which make up the variable set might not appear on the same pick slip, but the picks are created at the same time.
For more information: See Entering Variable Set Information (WVST).
Finished goods are items that require assembly prior to picking and packing. A finished good is made up of one or more components. These components are assembled to build the finished good. The finished good is picked and packed, not the individual components. The system tracks the usage of each component and will recommend re-order quantities. The system also determines demand for the finished good item and recommends the number of finished goods to be made up to meet demand.
