assemble-to-order

scenario covers the process flow for managing manufacturing operations associated with assembly of a finished product from standardized components already available in stock.

The scenario is initiated when a sales order is placed,

starts with converting the sales order into individual assembly orders. The assembly is then carried out according to the customer's requirements.

In contrast to the make-to-order scenario, the stock availability in the assemble-to-order scenario is checked at the sales order level. As a rule, assembly operations are simple, that is why they do not require complex planning and scheduling.
