Update DOP Header Supply Configuration
Explanation
This activity, preferably run as a background job, is used to modify
the configuration of a DOP header when an alarm exists for a configuration mismatch
between the DOP header and its pegged customer order line. This activity performs
a complete rebuild of the DOP structure according to the modifications made
in the requested configuration from the customer order line.
The configuration alarm of type Configuration with source
Customer Order Demand cannot be ignored or acknowledged; it
must be solved. Configuration alarm of type Configuration and
source Demand Site Customer Order can only be acknowledged
as it is an information DOP alarm for the supply site
to inform the user that a DOP alarm with source Customer Order Demand is expected
to be created later in the business flow. Therefore, it can be acknowledged
if necessary
before the new DOP alarm is created. If the DOP alarm with source Demand
Site Customer Order exists when DOP alarm with source Customer
Order Demand is created, the Demand Site Customer
Order DOP alarm will be replaced.
As long as a DOP alarm of type Configuration exists, all
shop orders, purchase requisitions, and purchase orders will be locked and cannot
be processed until the alarm is solved or acknowledged.
To perform the activity, click Update Supply Configuration on
the DOP Alarms page, the Alarms tab
on the DOP Header page or the Alarms tab
on the DOP Order page.
Prerequisites
- The DOP order and structure must have been created.
- Peggings must not exist on a shop order in the Started status.
- Peggings must not exist on a DOP order promoted to a status that is
not allowed to perform changes according to the update settings on the Details tab
on the DOP Order page.
- No reserved items are allowed for the customer order line.
- The DOP header must have been connected to only one customer order line.
- An alarm must exist due to a configuration mismatch between the DOP
header and its pegged customer order line.
In addition to the above prerequisites, if the flag Allow Configuration
Changes for Started Supplies is enabled on the
Site/Manufacturing page in the
Configuration Change Management Settings section:
- Peggings can exist on a shop order in the Started status.
System Effects
- Any existing alarms for a configuration mismatch between the DOP header
and its pegged customer order line will be resolved.
- The configuration will be updated in the DOP header.
- The changed configuration is promoted to the DOP header from the customer
order line. The DOP structure is completely rebuilt, taking into consideration
the modifications made. Any manual modifications made to the DOP structure
will be removed.
- The Structure Changed will be displayed on the Details
tab on the DOP Header
page for the parent DOP order.
- The whole DOP structure will be recreated, and new DOP orders and
their supplies
will be recreated with the new configuration ID for each level in the DOP
structure with new BOM unless the status is started or closed.
- Started and Closed DOP orders that are affected by the configuration
change will be recreated with new DOP ID and existing pegged orders will
be re-pegged to the new DOP order.
- Started DOP orders and supplies that are not affected by the configuration
change are ignored. DOP ID and Supply ID remain unchanged.
- Closed supplies that are not affected by the configuration change
remain as they are in the DOP structure.
- DOP orders might not be recreated as they are not needed in
the new configuration. These DOP orders will be disconnected from the current
sub DOP level and reconnected to the top DOP order. This is done since
the product/DOP order is not needed in the structure, and user must first manually
unpeg the supply SO and then close the DOP Order to remove it completely.
- DOP Log related to configuration changes will be cleared.
Additionally, if the flag Allow Configuration Changes for Started Supplies
is enabled on the Site/Manufacturing
page in the Configuration Change Management Settings
section:
- Configuration ID will be updated on DOP order and supply if any
started (not Closed) supply order on this level is affected by the
configuration change. NOTE: Supply material and operations will not be
updated, update of BOM must be done manually.
- Configuration ID on closed supply shop order will not be updated.
- BOM and operations are created based on the new configuration ID for
any newly created supply orders.
- When a reservation for the old configuration towards parent exists,
both old and new DOP orders will be present in the structure. The user
must now decide if the old reservation and DOP order shall be kept for
the production changes or if the newly created DOP order shall be used.
DOP order and supply order BOM/Operation changes need to be decided and
done manually by the user.
