hello all
I have searched the forum for solutions about this problem but the suggested solutions are not valid for us.
problem:
we have a customer that needs on a regular basis specific pieces, that must be reserved for him only.
the way we work is as follows:
we use service orders settled on projects. The service orders contain the operations as well as the logistics movements of the material that is retrieved from storage locations on basis of FIFO batches.
We want to prevent the system, when material is requested in a SO, reserving the specific material of this client;
one of our limits is the accounting part of the story:
the valuation of the material changes according to stock and so we cannot define this material as "client specific" because
1) the material does not belong to the client but to our (valuated) stock
2) the value/quantity is not reflected in our stock
we thought of creating a dummy project in which we "temporarily" set the material but apparently, from the point of view financial/accounting, this is too messy and so it is a no-go.
how can we block these pieces so that they cannot be used by any other project/customer?
