Create Complete Structure/Operations from BOM/Routing
Explanation
This activity is used to create a DOP structure by selecting a structure revision and alternate and use the
corresponding BOM structure.
This is done using the Create DOP Structure/Routing dialog. To open the dialog click
DOP Structure, then click Create DOP Structure. In the dialog enable the Create DOP
Structure/Routing from Part Structure/Routing setting. In the Create DOP Structure/Routing
from Part Structure/Routing section select the revision and alternate for the structure and routing
you want to use in the BOM/Routing area.
Prerequisites
This activity has the following prerequisites:
- The DOP header status should be Created.
- The DOP structure cannot be created for parts with a recipe structure.
- If the DOP header part is serial effective and serial numbers are reserved, no selection of another revision
or alternate can be made.
- If no serial numbers are reserved, any valid revision and alternate can be selected.
System Effects
- DOP orders are created with quantities and in a structure according to the selected BOM revision and
alternate.
- 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.
