Warehouses and Bin Locations

There are significant differences between the two products in their range of functionality regarding multiple locations. However, as these differences impact not just on Planning but on Works Order Processing, Traceability and to a lesser extent on Bill of Materials, they are dealt with under ‘System-wide Differences’. Please click here for details.

Units of Measure

Sage 50 Manufacturing has the ability to convert stock units between ‘Bought In’ units and ‘Allocated/Issue’ units. If a raw material is bought and stocked in tonnes but used in metres, the program will create Purchase Orders in tonnes but Works Orders, including Route Cards will show metres. There is no equivalent facility in S200 Manufacturing.
