Fields in the New/Edit dialog

  • Component: Item that is required or arises in the production structure. For existing lines it is read-only, but can be opened directly for editing.
  • Quantity factor: Quantity of the component per unit of the parent production item.
  • Unit of measure (read-only): Base unit of the selected component.
  • Alternative units of measure (conditional): For each maintained conversion, X-ERP shows a quantity field with a conversion factor. A change is calculated back to the quantity factor in the base unit.
  • Dissolve: Controls whether a nested production structure of the component is further resolved.
  • Previous production step (only for production step components): Selects the previous step on which this production step depends in time.
  • Previous production step dependency (only for production step components): Specifies the start-start, start-end, end-start or end-end relationship to the previous step.
