Problem statement

When creating a new build order it would be very helpful to identify how the available stock is made up (i.e., 1 reel of 20 and 1 cut tape of 2, or 1 reel of 22, etc.). This would be useful as we sometimes need to ensure that the available stock has at least 1 physical part that will meet the required quantities in order for assembly to be easier (i.e., we cannot send 10 pieces of cut tape that each have 10 pieces in order to meet a need for 100 pieces).

It would be very useful to know at the time we are looking to allocate stock as we use this information for determining which parts we have sufficient quantities for and which we need to order.

Suggested solution

Within a build order, in the "Available" column of Allocate Stock to Build table, include brackets with all of the quantities available separated by semi-colons or other symbol to make it easy to identify in the event of exporting the table as a csv and running a python script on it.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The only alternatives is to flag these components when allocating stock but this is a very tedious process.

Examples of other systems
