Create Structure for Serial Effectivity
Use this function to continue the structure breakdown of a serial effective DOP order part.
To continue the structure, breakdown of a serial effective DOP order part from the DOP
Logs page, click Create Structure. To do it from the DOP
Header or DOP Order page, click Create Structure on the
Logs tab.
Prerequisites
- A DOP log of type Serial No Breakdown must exist.
- Serial numbers must have been reserved for the DOP order.
System Effects
As a result of this activity:
- If you have allowed an automatic release of DOP orders by enabling the Auto Release setting in the
Settings section on the Details tab on the DOP
Header page, the system automatically releases the component DOP orders when the structure is
created. Releasing a DOP order means generating a shop order or a purchase requisition for the DOP Order. The
actual DOP order and the higher levels structure will not be released.
- The status of the DOP orders will change to Unreleased unless the orders are automatically released.
In that case, the status will be Released.
- If the DOP header is project specific, DOP orders created in the structure will be tagged with project ID and
activity sequence. When releasing pegged project specific DOP Orders, the system will generate project specific
shop orders or purchase requisitions/purchase orders dependending on the part type. These orders will be received
into project inventory.
- When you create a DOP structure, any intermediate steps in the structure are deleted. Parts with planning
method K and P (blow throughs and phantom parts) are considered intermediate steps.
- If a DOP order is serial effective, the breakdown will stop on the DOP order and a log will be created. The
log will be displayed on DOP Logs page. If you have allowed an automatic release of DOP
orders, higher levels structure straight to the top order will not be released. After continuing the structure
breakdown for the DOP order the actual DOP log will disappear from the table.
- 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 exists 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 start date are updated for the DOP order that the structure breakdown is continued for. For
each new DOP order that is created, the due date and start date are set. For information on how this is done, see
Plan DOP Orders.
- If the site has Schedule and Create Load for DOP Order Operations enabled, machine and labor
load of source Scheduled DOP are created for the DOP order operations based on the quantity
remaining to supply on the DOP orders, plus the planned supply scrap for that quantity. This applies to DOP
orders with manufactured parts that have the status Unreleased and Create
Pegged set to Pegged Orders.
