Kitting & Assembly
Kitting lets one sales order line for a kit SKU turn into component picks, an assembly task and a finished kit license plate. Kits can be assembled to order or built to stock ahead of demand, and a built kit can be taken apart into its components again.

How kitting works in Waresify
A supervisor defines each kit as a bill of materials: the component SKUs, the quantity of each per kit, and the assembly zone where the work happens. The list order is shown to the worker as an assembly sequence.
Assemble to order or build to stock
Each kit uses one of two models.
- Assemble to order: the kit has no stock of its own. An order reserves the components, workers pick them to the assembly zone, build the kit, and the kit goes to outbound staging.
- Build to stock: a build order drives component picking and assembly ahead of demand. The finished kit is put away and later picked like any other item.
Rules to know
Components cannot be kits themselves, so kits do not nest. There is no component substitution in this version: if a component is short, assembly blocks and the supervisor resolves it through the normal short-allocation flow.
