With the new feature- being able to use production BOM and Routing on SKU-cards, with variants, it would be optimal, if it could be an option, to add variant on the family-member lines too.
Then the 'circle' would be closed.

¡It is necessary to resolve this as soon as possible!


I think this is not a new idea. I think this is a bug (Bad design) in "Variant Code" and Manufacturing implementation.


¡Its resolution takes no more than 15 minutes!


The extension of manufacturing management to products with variants, should:

• add "Variant Code" in table "99000774 Family Line" 

• modify in codeunit "99000787 Create Prod. Order Lines" the CopyFromFamily procedure.


In this procedure should modify call to InitProdOrderLine adding the "Variant Code"


local procedure CopyFromFamily(): Boolean

var

Family: Record Family;

FamilyLine: Record "Family Line";

ErrorOccured: Boolean;

begin

Family.Get(ProdOrder."Source No.");

FamilyLine.SetCurrentKey("Low-Level Code");

FamilyLine.SetRange("Family No.", ProdOrder."Source No.");

OnCopyFromFamilyOnAfterFamilyLineSetFilters(FamilyLine, ProdOrder);

if FamilyLine.FindSet() then

repeat

if FamilyLine."Item No." <> '' then begin

//Original

// InitProdOrderLine(FamilyLine."Item No.", '', ProdOrder."Location Code");

//New

InitProdOrderLine(FamilyLine."Item No.", "Variant Code'', ProdOrder."Location Code");

//EndChange

OnCopyFromFamilyOnAfterInitProdOrderLine(ProdOrder, FamilyLine, ProdOrderLine);

ProdOrderLine.Description := FamilyLine.Description;

ProdOrderLine."Description 2" := FamilyLine."Description 2";

This functionality would be great, when companies sometimes produces a kit of items with different variant-codes.


As an example clothes with different sizes and/or colours.
