How to create an Assembly for a Product in a Sales Order
FollowCreate Assemblies for products on order, directly from the Sales Order page. Use the Assemble action cog to create an Assembly for both auto-assembled and manually assembled products, as and when required.
By creating an Assembly directly from the Sales Order, the Assembly will automatically populate the Assembled Quantity from the Ordered quantity and you will have full traceability of the Assembly's progress from the Sales Order too.
