MFMALL: Inserting additional filters

This entry point is used to insert additional logic in the allocation of each component linked to the production. It is called in all allocation cases (WO management, planning workbench, automatic processings, etc.) and is used in particular to activate/deactivate the allocation of a component matching certain criteria.

Context and operating mode

Transaction

There is one transaction in progress.

Log file

There is no open log file.

Available screens and file classes

The MFGMAT ([F :MFM ], ITMMASTER ([F :ITM]) and ITMFACILIT ([F :ITF]) tables are loaded when calling the entry point.

Use

This entry point has been designed so that the allocation of components matching certain criteria can be deactivated. This deactivation is possible by setting the WRET variable to 9. Leave the WRET variable to its current value if the component must be assigned.

ALLCHO: Modifying the value of the allocation mask fields

This entry point is used to take control immediately after loading the WO allocation mask. It is used to modify the content of allocation mask fields.

Context and operating mode

Transaction

There is no transaction in progress.

Log file

There is no open log file.

Available screens and file classes

The MFMALL mask is loaded when calling the entry point.

Use

This entry point has been designed so that the value of the MFGALL mask fields can be modified. For example, it can be used to modify the [M :MFA]TALL field, so as to suggest by default a detailed allocation rather than a global allocation.

ALLCHOMAT: Possibility to allocate specific components of WOs

Use this entry point to take over right before the WO component allocation. It is used to short-circuit the standard allocation in order to carry out an allocation based on specific criteria.

Context and operating mode

Transaction

There is one transaction in progress.

Log file

There is no open log file.

Available screens and file classes

The MFMALL mask is loaded when calling the entry point.

The MFGHEAD [F:MFG] and MFGMAT [F:MFM] tables are loaded when calling the entry point.

Use

This entry point has been designed to allow the taking over in the WO component allocation loop.

It is used to short-circuit the standard allocation in order to carry out an allocation based on specific criteria. For instance, it can be a specific field linked to each material that indicates the allocation type (global, detailed, etc.) that must be applied to allocate the material.

The GPE variable is used. It is set to the value 0 by default. It must be set to 1 to short-circuit the standard processing allocation.

MFMMAJ: Specific update of the MFGMAT WO materials file

This entry point is used to take over during the update of the WO material allocation, right before the MFGMAT table is updated.

Context and operating mode

Transaction

There is one transaction in progress.

Log file

There is no open log file.

Available screens and file classes

The [F:MFG] and [F:MFM] buffers are loaded when the entry point is called.

Use

This entry point is used to take over when updating a WO material allocation (ALLOC_MAT sub-program) or all the materials of a WO (ALLOC_OF sub-program). It is used to intervene  right before updating the allocation of each component, in other words before updating the MFGMAT table.

it is possible to know the call context of each allocation sub-program by querying the value of the LTRT variable.

Possible values of LTRT:

.         LTRT = "C": creation,

.         LTRT = "M": modification,

.         LTRT = "A": cancellation,

.         LTRT = "E": switch from a global allocation to a detailed allocation.

MODALLMAT: modification of the material allocations

This entry point is used to take control if the WO component allocations is modified. It is used to short-circuit the standard processing in which the quantity shortage was allocated in order to replace it by a specific processing, for example in order to comply with a single lot allocation rule.

Context and operating mode

Transaction

There is one transaction in progress.

Log file

Available screens and file classes

The ALLPAR screen class is loaded when calling the entry point, as well as the MFGMAT ([F :MFM]), ITMMASTER ([F :ITM]) and ITMFACILIT ([F :ITF]) tables.

Use

This entry point is used to short-circuit the allocation of WO components when allocations are modified in order to replace it with a specific allocation.The GPE variable is used.It is set to the value 0 by default.It must be set to 1 to short-circuit the standard processing allocation.
