Fusion Product Types

Enhances the stock item feature in Acumatica to ensure that users can create and customize their own items.

Build-Your-Product

Allow customers to build their own bundles

BYP allows users to build a custom stock item via a flexible, rules and options-based product definition within Acumatica. Based on the options they select for the product; customers can build and price a unique stock item using this functionality.

BYP replaces “Bundle” Product in the now-retired Product Configurator solution.

BYP Features

  • Define other stock or non-stock items as configurable options to build a custom product.
  • Reduce the overall SKU count within the product catalog by allowing a single BYP SKU to represent all combinations/choices on a custom product.
  • Utilize attributes as configurable options as well.
  • Define complex “include” and “exclude” rules to determine which options can or cannot be used with each other.
  • Calculate product price dynamically based on the chosen options.
  • Allocate costs automatically based on the chosen options.
  • Support salespersons by allowing them to easily identify available choices for custom products.
  • Allocate inventory for chosen options at the time of creating the sales order preventing oversell.
  • Create serialized inventory for each configured BYP SKU, allowing for standard Acumatica operations including returns.
  • View all serial numbers for previously created BYP products.
  • Enhanced forms (Order confirmation, Pick List, Shipment Confirmation, etc.) to show chosen options.
  • Use standard Acumatica import scenarios to import products in bulk.
  • Use reason codes to track inventory allocation and reporting.
  • Ship in full or partially based on the availability of the product options, as per the configuration.
  • Use BYP when creating sales quotations or orders.

C-Kits provides the ability to extend the Kit functionality offered by Acumatica.

This module allows users to select the quantity of kit components when creating a sales order based on the minimum and maximum values supplied via the kit specification screen. Additionally, it provides the option to publish the kit’s component parts on a variety of forms, such as pick lists, shipment confirmations, and sales order reports.
