Use this activity to add a new by-product to a specific shop order of type manufacturing, remanufacturing, repair, prototype or disassembly. A by-product is an unintentional secondary product produced simultaneously with the main product, typically holding a lower value compared to the main product.
Add a by-product by creating a new line with Type set to By-Product on the Shop Order/Produced Parts tab. Enter the required part number in the Produced Part field and the quantity produced relative unit of the parent part in the Qty per Unit field. Optionally the by-product can be connected to the operation where it is produced.
As a result of this activity, a by-product is added to the shop order.
