Create Default Structure from BOM
Explanation
This activity is used to copy a default structure from BOM. The valid structure
revision and alternate due to the date or serial numbers reserved is used.
To copy a default structure from BOM click Create Structure,
then Create Structure.
Prerequisites
This activity has the following prerequisites:
- The status of the DOP header should be Created.
- The DOP structure cannot be created for parts with a recipe structure.
- The DOP header part must have a valid structure revision and
alternate.
- If the DOP header part is serial effective serial numbers must be reserved.
System Effects
- DOP orders are created with quantities and in a structure according
to the default BOM for the part.
- If the Structure Depth field in the Settings
section on the Details tab is set to DOP Parts,
DOP orders will be created
for the parts with the Default Supply Type
field set to DOP
in the
Part Info Planning section on the
General tab on the Inventory Part Planning
Data page, and the level
below it in the BOM. The Create Pegged field in the
Settings section on the Details
tab on the DOP Order page will be set to
Pegged Orders for all parts with the default supply type set to
DOP.
- If the Structure Depth field in the Settings
section on the Details tab is set to Full Level, DOP orders will be created for all levels in the BOM.
The
Create Pegged field in the Settings
section on the Details tab on the
DOP Order page will be
set
to Pegged
Orders for all the generated DOP orders.
- If the DOP header is project specific, DOP orders with
Create Pegged set to Pegged Orders will be tagged with project ID and activity sequence.
For DOP orders with Create Pegged set to No
Pegged Orders, only DOP orders with Std Planned Item
disabled will be tagged with the project ID and activity
sequence.
- The status of the DOP orders will be Unreleased unless Auto Release
has been enabled in the Settings
section on the Details tab on the
DOP Header page. In that case, the status will be
Released. Releasing a DOP order means generating a shop order or
a purchase requisition for the DOP order.
- When releasing pegged project specific DOP orders, the system will generate
project specific shop orders or purchase requisitions/purchase orders dependent
on the part type. These orders will be received into project inventory.
- If a DOP order is serial effective,
the breaking-down will stop at the DOP order level and a log will be created.
The log will be displayed in DOP Logs page. If you have
allowed an automatic release of DOP orders, higher levels structures straight
to the top order will not be released. If serial numbers are reserved for
the DOP header, they are moved to the top DOP order.
- When creating a DOP structure which includes phantom parts
(inventory parts with planning method P), the DOP
order is created for the phantom part if there is enough inventory to fulfill
the order. Phantom parts are needed to net as and when the DOP order is
created to avoid material shortages in the future. If enough inventory
is not available for the phantom, and for blow through parts (inventory
parts with planning method K), intermediate steps in the structure are
deleted.
- A valid routing revision and buildable routing alternate will
be added for each DOP order. If no buildable or plannable routing alternate
exist for the part a DOP log is created, but the creation of the structure
will continue. If the routing is serial effective
and no serial numbers
are reserved for the DOP order a DOP log is created, but the creation of
the structure will continue.
- The due date and the start date are calculated for each DOP order in
the structure, depending on due date and start date of the parent DOP order,
lead-time and lead-time offset, where the lead-time is depending on lot
size and routing revision and alternate. These lead-times will be calculated
based on the manufacturing calendar, whereas the pegged purchases will
use the distribution calendar.
