This function allows you to post labor activities (labor validation), which creates the production tracking record. 

The Labor validation process:

  • Uses core labor posting routines to create work order tracking records.
  • Updates the Shop floor tracking transaction (SFTTXN) entries as posted and moves them to the Shop floor tracking transaction history (SFTTXNH). 
  • Can be run interactively or as a scheduled batch request.

Before posting activities, you need to complete the following steps:

  1. Create Shop floor transaction records. This can be done through the Shop floor tracking (SFT) workbench or manually using the Employee activity function (FUNSFTEAC).
  2. Review the activity record and modify as needed using the Employee activity function (FUNSFTEAC).

Criteria

You can filter activities to post using a variety of criteria including:

Team and/or Employee - Filter by team, employee, or both. (See field help for details).

Entry transaction – Entry must be a valid transaction code that is setup to support time tracking via the Time tracking plan function (GESMOL).

Site – Optional. If specified it must be a valid production site.

Define ranges – employee, shift dates, work centers, work orders, and operation.

Activity – Clock in/out, Indirect reference, Setup, and Run.

Log file

Validating labor activities generates a log file that contains details about processed records and tracking activity. It includes successful and failed activity postings.

The log file contains the following information:

  • Work order number
  • Setup time completed
  • Run time completed
  • Completed qty.
  • Rejected qty.
  • Tracking number
  • Error message (when applicable)

The log file groups activities by Work order and activity type. A Setup and the related Run activity appear in different sections of the log file. For each Setup, the log includes the related Run activities by default, even if the Run activity is not complete. In this case, the Run time defaults to 0.
