The new item will be used to make a name brand product and two generic brand products.

This item has the following requirements:

✑ Production of the name brand and generic products must use the same formula.

✑ The company must produce all three items at the same time.

You need to create a produced item that can make two generic items and one main item.

How should you set up the item?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

To meet the requirement that production of both the name brand and generic products must use the same formula and be produced at the same time, the correct setup would be to create the name brand product as the main product using a formula production type. The two generic products should be created as co-products within the formula for the name brand product. This approach allows the utilization of a single formula for the production and ensures that all three items are produced simultaneously.

B is correct. A is incorrect, as planning items are not used for the components of a formula. For this scenario, specify the generics as co-products instead. C and D are also incorrect, as process manufacturing use formulas, not bill of material type items.
