Hi Ahmed Hassan,

Thank you for reaching out to us on Microsoft Q&A forum. 

Both Assembly Order and Assembly Stock are integral to the process of managing assembly items. However, they serve distinct purposes in the manufacturing and inventory management process. Below is a detailed differentiation:

Assembly Order:

An Assembly Order is a specific request or instruction to assemble raw materials or components into a finished product. It represents the manufacturing process in which individual components are combined to form a final product.

• The primary purpose of an assembly order is to manage and track the assembly process, ensuring the correct allocation of components and the production of the finished goods.
• This is commonly used in manufacturing environments where products are constructed from multiple parts or materials.
• Upon creation of an assembly order, the system allocates the required components from inventory and facilitates the production of finished goods based on predefined specifications.

Assembly Stock:

Assembly Stock refers to the inventory of finished goods that result from the assembly process. These are the products that have been fully assembled and are now available for use, sale, or distribution.

• The purpose of assembly stock is to track and manage the inventory of assembled products that are ready for further processing or sale.
• Once the assembly process is completed, the finished goods become part of the assembly stock, representing the final product within the organization's inventory.
• Upon completion of an assembly order, the system updates the assembly stock, adding the finished goods to the inventory. These items are now available for distribution, sale, or internal consumption.

Note:

Assembly Order: Refers to the specific order created to assemble components into a finished product.

Assembly Stock: Refers to the inventory of finished products that are produced and stored as a result of the assembly process.
