The purpose of this function is to make it possible to display all the available load (order type OWx or ORx) for a given site. It is possible to display this load based on specific criteria (Work Center, Work Center group, Date)

The load represents the load generated during the creation of a works order (firm or planned) or generated during the launch of the MRP with load calculation. This load may be scheduled or not.

The non scheduled order load is displayed by operation start and end dates that correspond to the start and end dates of the works order.

Screen management

This screen takes the form of a header (selection criteria), then of a grid that can be set up.

Header

The header information is used to specify the principal selection criteria for the inquiry being used.

  • Site: It is mandatory to enter a site. The site shown by default corresponds to the site associated with the user.
  • Work Center/Work Center Group: this entry is not mandatory, it is used to filter the load to be displayed based on the work centers or work center groups used up by this load.
  • Start date: This range makes it possible to display those operations that must start within the date range entered or the operations that are not finished within this date range.

Selection

Site (field FCY)

The production site associated with the user is proposed by default. It can be modified by another site authorized for the operator, depending on its authorizations.

Start - end range

Work center group (field WCRSTR)

The work center group is a physical or fictitious entity grouping several work centers of machine, labor or sub-contracting type.
field WCREND
Work center (field WSTSTR)

The work center is attached to a work center group. It corresponds to a production resource on which a routing operation is carried out.

This is an entity for which it is requested to plan loads and track production times.

Each work center is associated with an attachment site.
field WSTEND
Labor center (field WSTLABSTR)
field WSTLABEND
Work center type (field WSTTYPSTR)

This field identifies the type of operation that is performed at this work center. This might be a machine, a labor resource, or a subcontracted operation. Work centers of type Subcontracting are managed externally by subcontract suppliers.

 
field WSTTYPEND
Start date (field STRDATSTR)

Use this field to filter the orders to be loaded.

SEEWARNING Observe loading times.
field STRDATEND

Tab Loads

The columns present in this grid depend on the setup of the screen code chosen.

By default, the grid restores for the chosen site some information, among which are the order type, the operation number, the work center, the start and end dates, the planned quantity, the achieved quantity, the various times (setup, running times etc.)

Specific Buttons

Criteria

This button is used to access the additional selection and sort criteria with respect to the criteria entered in the inquiry header.

Selection criteria

It is possible to filter the load WIP by project, work order and operation number.

It is possible to filter the load to be displayed based on its status (suggested, planned, firm): by default all the statuses are proposed.

Global load: The global load corresponds to the display of the load of OWx and ORx type.

The load of ORx type is generated by the Master Production Schedule (MPS) calculation when the latter is carried out with a load calculation.

By default, only the OWx type load is displayed.

Automatically scheduled WIP: by default, all the WIP is proposed, automatically scheduled or not: it is possible to only filter the automatically scheduled WIP.

Former/current operations: by default only the operations whose start date is included in the start date range entered are displayed. Using this setup, it is possible to also display the operations whose start date is prior to this range but that must occur within this date range. As a consequence, the user can, using this inquiry, display the totality of the load that must be carried out on a given day, for instance: the operations starting on that day and those that have already started and are not finished yet.

Display criteria:

Screen code : generally speaking, the inquiries can be set up. It is possible to call up customized inquiry screens via the screen code. This customization makes it possible to choose what are the information that should be shown in the screen and in what order it should be positioned in the grid.

Classification

The display can be classified on the basis of various sort criteria: by default the operations are classified by ascending start date. it is possible to classify them by work center, WO, status or load type (OWx/ORx ).

Graphic

This button is used to display the graphical load.

Error messages

The only error messages are the generic ones.
