Frequently Asked Questions

What is AutoCount Stock Assembly?
AutoCount Stock Assembly allows businesses to convert raw materials or component items into finished goods based on a predefined Bill of Material within AutoCount Accounting.

What happens to stock when I perform a Stock Assembly?
The quantity of the finished goods increases while the quantities of the required raw materials are automatically reduced according to the configured BOM.

What is a Bill of Material in AutoCount?
A Bill of Material, or BOM, defines the finished product and the raw materials or component items required to produce a specified quantity of that finished product.

What is the difference between Stock Assembly Order and Stock Assembly?
Stock Assembly Order is used to plan an assembly and does not immediately affect stock quantities. Stock Assembly performs the actual assembly and updates the finished goods and raw material stock balances.

Can I check whether there are enough raw materials before assembly?
Yes. AutoCount provides raw material status and BOM material inquiry functions to help users check available quantities before processing an assembly.

Can AutoCount calculate how many finished goods can be produced?
Yes. The BOM Listing Report can show the maximum quantity of finished goods that can be assembled based on the available stock of required materials.

Can alternative raw materials be used?
Yes. Where BOM Optional is configured, alternative or substitute material items can be applied during the assembly process.

Does Stock Assembly work without the BOM module?
No. AutoCount documentation states that Stock Assembly is available when either the Bill of Material or Multi Level Assembly module is enabled.
