Autobuild Items

Hi,

 

We use autobuild a lot to create products from components (items). When I look at the autobuild report, the items are not in the order in which I entered them.

 

What's up with that?

 

I take great care to enter items in a particular order, so that it will make checking off from the list easier as we are physically building the items in production. But AccountRight just re-orders the items, seemingly randomly. They are not re-ordered in item number order. They are not re-ordered in item name alpha-numeric order. I have no idea and I'm tired of it.

 

The only way I have been able to get the item autobuild report for a particular item to remain in the order I enter individual items is to enter one item line, close the item card, reopen the item card, enter the next item line, close the item card, open the item card, etc until I have entered 50 or whatever lines.

 

Why do I have to do that?

    Hello Henrique,

     

    Can you please explain what you mean by "just click on Memo"?

     

    Thanks,

    Hi RayJordan,

     

    Did you ever get a solution to this?

    I've just come back to MYOB Accountright purely for the Inventory management and in particular the Autobuild function. I have just imported over 1000 items that I want to auto build. I've gone looking for the method to export / import bulk auto builds. Then I find your post and I'm now thinking I've made a big mistake.

    No, I haven't heard a peep from anyone at MYOB about this in over 6 months. Still have to enter one item at a time, close the card and repoen to add the next item if you want the items to appear in the auto-build report in the same way you enter them.
