Create DOP Header
Explanation
This activity is used to create a dynamic order processing (DOP) header containing part and demand information
and configure its settings. Creating the DOP header is the first step toward creating a DOP structure. Only
company-owned stock is allowed for DOP.
To create a DOP header enter the relevant information in the New DOP Header assistant.
The assistant can be opened directly from the navigator or by clicking New on the DOP
Header page. A part is selected in the Part No field, a due date is entered in the Due
Date field and the demanded quantity is entered in the Demand Qty field. If the part is
Allow Condition Code enabled on the Part page, use the list of value
(LOV) selector to select a condition code in the Condition Code field.
In the Settings section:
- Select whether the DOP structure should be created for all parts in the structure, or only for the parts set
to be DOP supplied in the Structure Depth field.
- Select whether or not code part values should be created automatically in the Financial Integration
field.
- Enable Auto Release if the DOP orders should be automatically released when the DOP structure is
created.
- Enable Allow changes to created DOP structure if it should be allowed to manually add and remove
components (configurable and not configurable) and operations within the DOP structure once it has been created.
Allow changes to created DOP structure will be enabled by default for non-configurable parts. For
configurable parts the default value will be inherited from the Part Configuration
Settings section on the Part page.
In the Netting section:
- Select whether or not netting from inventory and/or existing shop/purchase orders should be allowed in the
Netting field. The default value is inherited from the Supply and Demands
Controls section on the Main tab on the Inventory
Part page, and will be further inherited to the top DOP order when the DOP structure is
created.
- If Netting or Auto Netting, was selected in the Netting field, specify the
sources allowed to net from by enabling/disabling the Inventory, DOP Sourced Supply and/or
Inventory Sourced Supply settings.
After the creation of a DOP header the entered information can be adjusted on the DOP
Header page.
Prerequisites
The Part Type must be Manufactured, Manufactured Recipe,
Purchased or Purchased (raw).
System Effects
As a result of this activity, the system creates a DOP header containing part and demand information. The DOP
header settings will control how the DOP orders are processed when you create the DOP structure.
