Define Direct Supply
Explanation
This activity is used to define a part that could be disassembled or remanufactured to directly supply a
remanufacturing shop order using this structure alternate.
To define the direct supply for a remanufacturing structure alternate, open the Direct
Supply tab, create a new record and enter the Part and whether the Supply
Type should be Disassembly or Remanufacturing. Optionally enter/edit
below values:
- Priority which indicates how optimal the supply from this part is.
- Supply Qty per Unit which is the quantity of the part that should be planned to be
disassembled or remanufactured to supply the remanufacturing of one unit of the main product.
- Lead Time Offset which is the number of workdays prior to the start of the remanufacturing
of the main product that the direct supply should be available.
- Requisition Conversion which controls what will happen to a shop order requisition for this
part if its status is Proposal Created and it is pegged as direct supply to a remanufacturing
requisition for the main product when that remanufacturing requisition is converted into a shop order.
Prerequisites
- A structure alternates for a structure header with Structure Type set to
Remanufacturing must exist.
- To add a part as direct supply, it must have a structure header with a Structure Type that
corresponds to the selected Supply Type.
System Effects
It will be possible to peg a supply shop order for the entered part and supply type to a shop order using this
structure alternate.
