Create DOP Order Manually
Explanation
This activity is used to create a DOP order manually. This is an alternative to copying a structure from an
existing DOP or BOM structure.
To create a new DOP order manually from the DOP Order page click the new command on
the Components tab and enter information. Specify the part number of the DOP order in the
Part field and the quantity needed to manufacture one parent part in the Qty per Assembly field.
If the parent DOP order has status Unreleased, the new DOP order will be created in status
Created. If the parent DOP order has status Released, the new DOP order is created in
status Released. To change the status from Created to
Unreleased, click Status then then Plan on the
Components tab. This is required in order to create structure for the part, e.g.
add branch, or to release the order.
It is also possible to execute these tasks from the DOP Header page when expanding the
tree structure in order to display the DOP order.
Prerequisites
- The status of the parent DOP order may not have reached status Started.
- The DOP structure cannot be created for parts with a recipe structure.
- The part type must be Manufactured, Manufactured Recipe,
Purchased, Purchased (raw) or Expense.
- The Allow Changes to DOP Structure setting must be enabled for the DOP header.
System Effects
As a result of this activity:
- A new DOP order is created.
- If the parent DOP order is in status Unreleased, the DOP order will be created in status
Created. The status will be changed to Unreleased when the DOP order is planned.
- If the parent DOP order is in status Released, the DOP order will be created in status
Released.
- If a pegged shop order exists, the part will be added as a component in the shop order.
- The Structure Changed flag will be displayed for the parent DOP order and the DOP header.
- If the DOP header is project specific, DOP orders that are created will be tagged with project ID and
activity sequence.
- A valid routing revision and a plannable or buildable routing alternative will be added for each DOP order.
If no buildable or plannable routing alternative exist for the part a DOP log is created. If the routing is
serial effective and no serial numbers are reserved for the DOP order a DOP log is created.
- If the start date is not manually entered it is calculated for the new DOP order in the structure, due to the
due date and lead-time, where the lead-time is depending on lot size and routing revision and alternative.
