Create Repair Shop Order Manually
Explanation
Use this activity to manually create a new repair shop order for a
specified part. A repair shop order means the same part is issued to the
order as received back to inventory once the repair is completed.
To create a new shop order for parts with date structure effectivity,
create a new record and enter below values:
- Enter the site and the part number of the part that you want to
repair.
- Enter the desired Lot Size that you want to repair.
- Select Repair in the Order Type drop-down.
- In the Scheduling
Direction drop-down, select either
Forward Scheduling or
Backwards Scheduling.
- With backward scheduling, the system schedules material
requirements and operations based on the Need Date that you
enter. The start date is equal to the need date minus the
total lead time time.
- With forward scheduling, you enter the Earliest Start Date.
The finish date is equal to sum of the earliest start date and the
total lead time time.
- If the part is configurable, select the original configuration for
the part to repair in the Configuration field.
- Enter new values in the Structure or Routing sections if
you want to use another structure or routing revision and/or
alternative. You can only use structure/routing of type Repair.
By default the system will fetch the revision based on the shop order
dates, and the * alternate. The repaired part is always added as a
material line regardless of the selected structure alternate.
To create a new shop order for parts with serial structure effectivity:
- Enter the site and the part number of the part that you want to
repair.
- Enter the desired Lot Size that you want to repair.
- Select Repair in the Shop Order Type drop-down.
- In the Scheduling
Direction drop-down, select either
Forward Scheduling or
Backwards Scheduling.
- With backward scheduling, the system schedules material
requirements and operations based on the Need Date that you
enter. The start date is equal to the need date minus the
total lead time time.
- With forward scheduling, you enter the Earliest Start Date.
The finish date is equal to sum of the earliest start date and the
total lead time time.
- When you save the record, the Select Revision/Alternate for
Serial Effectivity Part dialog appears.
- Select either Select Revision/Alternate from Serial, or
Select Revision/Alternate Manually:
- Select Revision/Alternate from Serial - Enter the serial
number to fetch the revision/alternate based on.
- Select Revision/Alternate Manually - Select the required
structure and/or routing revision and alternate.
- Note: You must manually ensure that the serial number of
the part(s) reserved to be repaired matches the selected
revision/alternate.
Prerequisites
To create material allocations, and to allow receipt of the order, a
valid repair structure revision alternate must exist for the repaired part.
To create operations, a valid repair routing revision alternate must
exist for the repaired part.
System Effects
As a result of this activity the system creates a new shop order with
Order Type set to Repair for the
selected part. When this happens, the system creates material requirements and
schedules operations. The repaired part is always automatically added as a
material line. It retrieves operations and structures according to the
part, structure revision and alternative, and routing revision and alternative
that you selected.
