We are attempting a new process and I need some help from the experts who work in more robust manufacturing environments.
We have two facilities across the United States - most of the manufacturing is done on the West Coast, but we export the product to another country from the East Coast. For example's sake, we fill a tube of goo with product at the West Coast facility and then send it to the East Coast facility to add an insert and shrink band.
I'd like to avoid having to create two different item numbers for the good (tube of goo without shrink band/insert and tube of goo with). I know you can update the items on the BOM with different branches. However, is there any way to "receive" the partially completed product (tube of goo) on the West Coast, use ST processing to send it to the East Coast, and tube of goo with insert and shrink band on the East Coast?
