The SOC supports kits. When an order is taken for a kit it is placed on order and the components of the kit are allocated in inventory. When the kit is shipped the components are issued from inventory, a kit is placed in inventory and then issued.

However, the SOC provides capabilities way beyond simple kits. You can:

• Use of Modular and Variable choices to configure the kit.

• Specify which components to include in the kit and their quantity while taking the order.

• The kit components are allocated in real time in inventory.

• Include the kits and components as part of the MRP process in WorkShop.

• Print s sales order picking ticket for kit components.

• Automatically issue the components from inventory when the kit is shipped.

• Optionally over ship missing kit components.

The rules for kits are constructed in the WorkShop BOM Module. To fully utilize the features just described, you will need the SOC, a compatible accounting package, and the WorkShop WS and BOM Modules.

For companies that would like to only do simple kitting, we suggest the SOC, a compatible accounting package and shopLink. This combination provides a low cost solution that can always be upgraded to include configuration capabilities at a later date by adding WorkShop.
