End (field OPEEND)

This field displays the operation end date.
Expected resources (field EXTWSTNBR)

The number of work centers makes it possible to set up all or part of the resources of a work center with a view to performing an operation.
Unit (field OPEUOM)

Work order operation quantities are expressed in the operation unit. Use this operation unit to express operating time in a different unit to that of the product being produced by the routing.

For example, a product managed by unit is subject to three different operations, none of which produce intermediate stock:

  • Mixing time (operation 1) is expressed for a lot with Kilogram as the unit;
  • Extrusion time (operation 2) is a rate in meters per hour;
  • Cutting time (operation 3) is expressed in hours per unit.

There is no need to create semi-finished products for each production phase.

The operation unit is associated with a conversion coefficient for the stock unit of the product being produced by the routing and the operation unit.
Actual work center (field CPLWST)

This field identifies the production resource used for this operation, that is the actual work center used. This work center is the main (principal) work center for this operation. It can be a machine or labor work center. The work center is attached to a work center group.

This field displays the actual rejected quantity.

The sum of the "quantity produced under quality control" plus the "rejected quantity" cannot exceed the Total completed quantity
Time unit (field TIMUOMCOD)

The time unit defines how time for the operations in this routing is expressed. The time unit can be 'hours' or 'minutes'.

It applies to the setup time, run time and the rate for all operations in the routing.
Setup time (field EXTSETTIM)

The setting time is a fixed amount of time necessary to prepare the work center.
It is part of the work center load.
It is expressed in the time unit specified in the routing.
Actual stp. time (field CPLSETTIM)

This is the actual setting time.
The setting time is a fixed amount of time necessary to prepare the work center.
It is part of the work center load. It is expressed in the time unit specified in the routing.
Run time (field EXTOPETIM)

The operation time is the time necessary to manufacture the product described in the routing.

The operating time:

  • in hours or minutes (see the time unit),
  • is expressed for 1, 100, 1,000 or a lot of units of the operation based on the management unit,
  • can be proportional or fixed, based on the type of operation times.
    Example :
    Time unit = Hours
    Time type = Proportional
    Management unit = Time for 100
    Operating time = 2
    Operation unit = Kg
    Finished product unit = One
    Conversion coefficient DU-OU = 0.5
    The operating time equals 2 hours for 100 Kg. If the Work Order is launched for 1,000 units of finished product, the time necessary to produce this operation is 10 hours to obtain 500 Kg.
Actual run time (field CPLOPETIM)

This is the actual operation time.
It is possible via a contextual button to enter start and end times.
In that case, the system automatically calculates the actual operation time.

The operating time:

  • in hours or minutes (see the time unit),
  • is expressed for 1, 100, 1000 or a lot of units of the operation based on the management unit,
  • can be proportional or fixed based based on the operating time type.
    Example:
    Time unit = Hours
    Time type = proportional
    Management unit = Time for 100
    Operating time = 2
    Operating unit = Kg
    Finished product unit = Un
    REL-OPE conversion coefficient = 0.5
    The operation time is equal to 2 hours for 100 Kg. If the Work Order is launched for 1000 units of finished product, the time necessary to produce this operation is 10 hours to obtain 500 Kg.
Labor center (field LABWCR)
Labor wk C (field EXTLAB)

Planned labor work center.
A labor work center can be associated with the machine-type principal work center.
The labor work center times are calculated using two coefficients:
Exp. no. labor (field EXTLABNBR)

The number of work centers makes it possible to set up all or part of the resources of a work center with a view to performing an operation.
Supplier (field BPSNUM)

Enter the supplier at the origin of the receipt. The selection lists specific to the intersite and intercompany orders and deliveries available for receipt are filered to those related to the entered supplier.

From the Selection icon, you can:

  • select a supplier from the list of active suppliers.
  • access, based on your authorizations, the supplier record, and create a new supplier if necessary.
Order no. (field POHNUM)

Each order has its own order number. It is used to identify it.

If the order sequence number is to be manually assigned, the user must also enter an order number. Where the order number sequence assignment is automatic, a number will be assigned at the end of the creation.

When you copy a purchase order and its order date is different from the current date, a messages suggests that you recalculate the prices and discounts according to the new order date.
Line (field POPLIN)

This is the purchase order line.

For an open order, the purchase order line corresponds to the product line.
Sequence (field POPSEQ)
