This function summarizes the progress level for the released products, materials, and operations for a work order.

Prerequisites

Refer to the documentation on Implementation.

Screen management

You cannot edit a work order.

Home section

Production site (MFGFCY)
The work order production site.
Work order (MFGNUM)
The work order number. You can only select a firm work order.
WO status (XMFGSTA)
The status of the work order is Firm.

Tab General

This section displays the important details for the selected work order.

Planning site (PLNFCY)
The planning site. The planning site can be different from the production site.
Release mode (XMFGMOD)

Defines the release mode for the work order.

Complete: The work order has both components and routing operations.

Materials only: The work order has components. It might not have any production operations.

Operations only: The work order has routing operations. It might not have any components.
Released routing (ROUNUM)

The routing used for the product manufacturing process.

The released routing is a product reference, which can be the reference for a manufactured product or a generic reference that's linked to multiple products.
Routing code (ROUALT)
Multiple routings can be defined for a single product. Each routing code can be assigned specific management features. These include restriction of the routing to a specific site and to specific areas of functionality such as for use in a manufacturing environment, for costing, or for capacity planning.
Last tracking (TRKLAST)
The date of the last tracking for the work order.
Closing date (CLODAT)
The date the work order was closed.

Lead times

Scheduling mode (XSCDMOD)

Defines the scheduling method for the work order.

Backward: With "backward" or upstream scheduling, the system calculates the production start date (Start date field) from the end or required completion date (End date field).

Forward: With "forward" or downstream scheduling, the system calculates the required completion date (End date field) from the defined production start date (Start date field).

These calculations rely on the production lead time, reduction factor, and economic quantity defined on the product-site record.
Start date (STRDAT)

The planned production start date for the work order. The date is determined by the Scheduling mode:

  • Forward scheduling respects this date.
  • Backward scheduling respects the defined End date.

The system calculates the date from the production lead time, reduction factor, and economic quantity defined on the product-site record.
End date (ENDDAT)

The end or required completion date for the work order. The date is determined by the Scheduling mode:

  • Backward scheduling respects this date.
  • Forward scheduling respects the defined Start date.

The system calculates the date from the production lead time, reduction factor, and economic quantity defined on the product-site record.

Status

Status (XMFGTRKFLG)

The Allocation status (components), Scheduling status, and Status fields display a status for the work order. These fields are updated automatically by the system.

Project (PJT)

The associated project code. The content can be one of the following:

  • A project code
  • A project code and a project budget code
  • A project code and a project task code, that is a material task code, a labor task code (sales only), or a combined (mixed) labor and material task code.

If the content of the field includes a character such as an exclamation mark "!" this field links to the structure of the project. The character is the separator between a project code and the structure, either the project cost structure or the project operational structure. For example, if a material task code is "USA-P3" and a project code is "USA12345678", this field displays a link to the project operational structure as "USA12345678!USA-P3".

To provide a quick and easy visual reference, the link to the project or project structure is distinguishable by the number of separator characters used. If there's no separator, the link is made to the project. A single separator such as an exclamation mark after the project code (the first code) indicates that the link type is a task. The link is made to the project operational structure. 2 separators placed after the project code mean that the link corresponds to a budget code. The link is made to the project budget structure.
