Subcontractor Type Resource
Incorporating subcontracting into production processes can optimize operations and leverage external expertise. This is achieved by creating subcontractor-type resources, adding them to an operation, and integrating that operation into the routing. Below is a step-by-step guide to setting up subcontractor-type resources effectively.
Resources
To set up a subcontractor-type resource for a service performed by an external organization:
-
Select the Resource Type
Choose the resource type as "Subcontractor." Once selected, additional fields will appear for further configuration.
-
Specify the Vendor
Identify the supplier performing the service by filling out the Vendor Code and Vendor Name fields.
-
Select the Item
Choose an item that is defined as a non-inventory item and is marked as purchased.
-
Define the Operation
Establish the operation involving the subcontractor and include it in the routing. This ensures the process is seamlessly integrated into the production flow.
