Create Manufacturing Shop Order Manually
Explanation
Use this activity to manually create a new manufacturing shop order for a
specified part.
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
manufacture.
- Enter the desired Lot Size that you want to manufacture.
- Select Manufacturing 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 manufacture time. If the part has Plan Manufacturing
Supply on Due Date enabled, you can also specify the desired
time the parts should be available in stock.
- With forward scheduling, you enter the Earliest Start Date.
The finish date is equal to sum of the earliest start date and the
total manufacture time. If the part has Plan Manufacturing Supply
on Due Date enabled, you can also specify the desired time the
order earliest can start.
- 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 Manufacturing.
- By default the system will fetch the revision based on the shop
order dates, and the * alternate.
- If loot size dependent alternates has been defined, the lot size
will control the alternate fetched.
- If the part is configured, the alternate might be selected based
on the configuration rules.
- If the shop order is created from the Production Line Management
page,
the routing revision and alternate will be set based on the routing revision/alternate
selected for the production line part.
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
manufacture.
- Enter the desired Lot Size that you want to manufacture.
- Select Manufacturing 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 manufacture 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 manufacture 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 on. If you also want to
reserve serial number(s) to the order, enable the Reserve Serials
option and enter the number of serials to reserve.
- Select Revision/Alternate Manually - Select the required
structure and/or routing revision and alternate.
- Note: If you do not reserve serials in this step, you
must make sure to reserve serial number(s) that matches the
revision/alternate at a later stage.
Prerequisites
- The part that you want to manufacture must have been entered on the
Inventory Part
page.
For the system to automatically add material lines, the part must have a
manufacturing structure
in status Buildable. If a manufacturing routing is used, it must be in status
Buildable as well.
- You cannot create a shop order manually for a multilevel configured
part. I.e. a configurable part with at least one configurable component
in the selected structure.
- To create a shop order manually from the Production Line Management
page, a routing revision/alternate valid for the production line must have
been selected using the Routing Operation Parameters
dialog.
System Effects
As a result of this activity the system creates a new shop order with
Order Type set to Manufacturing for the
selected part. When this happens, the system creates material requirements and
schedules operations. It retrieves operations and structures according to the
part, structure revision and alternative, and routing revision and alternative
that you entered.
