Advanced Kitting Module

Advanced Kitting Streamlines Distribution Assembly

Do you distribute products and have a need for advanced kitting functions? Do you assemble products before shipping them? If so, then Advanced Kitting is the perfect product to help you manage production and kit assembly without material issues. The streamlined Advanced Kitting system allows distributors, assemble-to-order industries, and other light manufacturers to concentrate on other critical business issues without getting tied up in complex manufacturing processes.

Advanced Kitting provides an easy-to-use production entry screen where finished goods are reported after the fact. This single point of entry eliminates numerous labor and production transactions by automatically issuing material quantities, outside process transactions, and labor time to finished kits.

MAS 500 ERP Distribution Modules
Distributors can identify labor as part of the kitting process. This dramatically improves product costing, subsequent pricing, and the kitting procedure.

Other Sage MAS 500 modules, such as Estimating, Product Configurator, and Inventory Replenishment, can be used with Advanced Kitting.
