Release DOP Header
Explanation
This activity is used to release a DOP structure manually. This is mandatory
for DOP orders that are not released automatically.
For a DOP header
connected to a project activity, it will not be possible to release the DOP
header if the activity has not been released.
To release a DOP structure manually click Status, then
click Release All.
Prerequisites
- At least one DOP order with a status of Created, Netted
or Unreleased must exist.
- If any DOP orders in the structure to release are serial effective,
serial numbers must be reserved for these DOP Orders.
System Effects
- The system releases all DOP orders which are not released in the DOP
structure. The status will be changed to Released, which will allow
you to process the DOP orders further.
- For DOP orders with 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
orders/requisitions generated for parts with a scrap factor will be created
with a quantity higher than the DOP order quantity to cover for the planned
scrap.
- Shop orders are 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 requisitions are created with a Wanted Receipt Date
set the same as the Due Date of the DOP order.
- When releasing a project pegged DOP header, the system will create a
project pegged shop order or purchase requisition/purchase order, depending
on the part type given for the project part in inventory. The project pegged
order is received into project inventory.
- 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.
- 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.
- An error message will pop up if user attempts to release a DOP
header
connected to an activity which is not released.
- 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.
