Release DOP Order

Explanation

This activity is used to release a specific DOP order manually.

To release a DOP order manually from the DOP Order page, click Release, then click Order. This can also be done from the DOP Header page after expanding the tree structure in order to display the DOP order.

Prerequisites

This activity requires that the DOP order has a status of Unreleased or Netted. If the DOP order is serial effective, serial numbers must be reserved.

System Effects

• The system releases the selected DOP order. The status will be changed to Released, which will allow you to process the DOP order further.
  • If the Create Pegged setting set to Pegged Orders, a pegged shop order is created if the part is manufactured and a purchase requisition created if the part is purchased with a supply quantity that meets the remaining demand of the DOP order.
  •  Lot sizing rules defined for the part will be ignored.
  • Supply order/requisition generated for part with a scrap factor will be created with a quantity higher than the DOP order quantity to cover for the planned scrap.
  • Shop order is created with a Need Date set the same as the Due Date of the DOP order. If Plan Manufacturing Supply on Due Date is enabled for the part, the need date time is set to the last working time that day according to the site manufacturing calendar. If disabled, the time is set to 00:00.
  • Purchase requisition is created with a Wanted Receipt Date set the same as the Due Date of the DOP order.
• If the Netting setting has been set to Auto Netting, quantities available in stock and/or excess quantities on existing shop/purchase orders will be automatically reserved/pegged to the DOP order thus reducing the quantity for which the DOP order needs to create its own pegged supply orders.
• When releasing pegged, project-specific DOP orders, the system will generate project-specific shop orders or purchase requisitions/purchase orders depending on the part type. These orders will be received into project inventory. If the DOP netting method on the DOP order had been set to Auto Netting, the DOP order will be automatically netted upon release.
• A check is done before release to see if the routing is in status Buildable. If the routing still is Tentative or has become Obsolete a DOP log is created.
• If the DOP order was connected to a project activity and if there were shop orders that had been connected to this DOP structure they will start reporting committed cost and hours back to the activity through the DOP order. These will be reported along with the specific project cost elements that have been previously defined.
• The Lot/Batch Origin setting for DOP supplied material lines on pegged shop orders will not be enabled even though it is enabled in the product structure line.
