Use the Auto Kitting option to have Micronet create works orders for all kit items that have a quantity on backorder for customers. Micronet scans the item file for items to be assembled and then displays those items on screen for additions and amendments. Note that all kit works orders need to be assigned to a customer; if you plan to make the items for stock, you need to create a dummy customer called say STOCK.
To run the Auto Kitting program:
Micronet displays the Auto Kitting screen.
