Production Schedule Connector

A production schedule is a manufacturing execution tool used when shop orders are inappropriate. Manufacturing production schedules can be created in different ways, depending on how the primary demand for an item is managed. Line schedules can be created from Master Scheduling, MRP, or manually. Schedules are not necessarily required to report the production of assemblies in this application.

This documentation provides insights into the premium APIs available within the Production Schedule Connector projection. For payload and response examples, please refer to the projection documentation accessible in the API Explorer.

The flow illustrations use arrows with the following meanings:

With these APIs, you can efficiently manage and report Production Schedule-related activities, ensuring accurate tracking and reporting of production quantities and scrap.

Get Production Schedule information

These APIs are designed to retrieve information about Production Schedules.

Get Production Schedules

Get information about Production Schedule Line IDs with remaining quantities.

Payload options:

  • Use "contract" in the payload to retrieve all IDs with remaining quantities on the site. image-20230110105004900

  • Add "PartNo" to narrow the filter by part. image-20230110105204277

  • Include "ProductionLine" in the payload to further narrow the filter by line. image-20230110105121759

  • Utilize "FilterDate" to retrieve until the specified date. This is helpful to limit the production schedule horizon to relevant schedules within a close time frame.

Get Progress Points

image-20230110104612607

Obtain information about progress points based on a given Site, PartNo, and ProductionLine.

Get Analysis Information

image-20230110104700718

Retrieve information structures related to inspection analyses with a focus on a Site, PartNo, and ProductionLine.

Report Production Schedule actions

These APIs invoke an action and register Production Schedule related activities.

Report Quantity

image-20230110104443244

This API is used for reporting Production Schedule quantities, including parts produced on a production line.

  • By default, the Effective Structure date is set to the current site time and is used to fetch Alternate and Revision information. You can override this by adding Alternate and Revision information in the payload.
  • The time of production defaults to the current site time, but you can specify it by adding the time of production in the payload.
  • You can configure handling units, but they can not be generated from packing instruction.
  • This API does not support background jobs, editing components, packing instructions, or Catch UoM.

Report Progress Point Quantity

image-20230110104246387

  • Use this API to report quantity for progress points on a production line.

  • Similar to "ReportQuantity," the Effective Structure date defaults to the current site time but can be overwritten by adding Alternate and Revision information in the payload.

  • The time of production also defaults to the current site time and can be overwritten as needed.

Report Scrap

image-20230110104142382

This API allows you to report complete scrap or scrap on a progress point.

  • As with the previous APIs, the Effective Structure date defaults to the current site time but can be overridden with Alternate and Revision information in the payload.
  • The time of production defaults to the current site time and can be specified in the payload.
  • If you don't use the Partial Progress Point in the payload, it is interpreted as complete scrap.
