Reverse Explosion of Goods Received
So here is an interesting scenario and one I have never come across in my career...
We have items that come in from our Supplier/Vendor that are a single PN which is a simple assembly or kit consisting of two items:
+ The container holding the product
+ The product within the container
The container has value significant enough that it must be tracked and can be resold to a customer as they are all in new condition. We will also buy these containers empty of product so we can keep them in stock/inventory.
In some cases we will resell it as a whole:
+ Container+Product just as it was received
In some cases we will sell it as a portion:
+ Partially-filled Container
+ Some measure of Product
Remaining Product stays in stock/inventory and we keep extra new empty Containers in stock.
So... We can very obviously explode our own kits/assemblies into related parts but has anybody ever done the opposite -- Exploding an incoming kits/assembly into related parts?
In the real world I can think of no case where such a thing would be done. It would be like buying an PC and then disassembling it into parts to be put into stock/inventory. What???
Any thoughts or ideas are greatly appreciated.
