However, could you answer another question please? The organisation that I work at assembles items per job, so the assembly invariably does not get used again for another job, but we would like to use the build report as a “job card” for the staff in the factory to build and for the manager to identify what assemblies are outstanding so that appropriate lead times are given on new jobs. Since an assembly item creates an inventory item, do we have to create an assembly item for each job? This could result in many assembly items that are only used once? Any thoughts?

Great blog, I have referred to it often!
