Production tracking

Use this function to customize the Production tracking (GESMTK) function to the needs of your organization and your processes.

Your system is provided with a standard or master Production tracking entry format. You can modify the master or create new entry definitions to suit your processes, your users or just to make your system more convenient to use. Each entry definition affects the way in which information is entered, and what information is displayed and printed. 

You create each entry definition as a "Transaction". Each transaction you define is available for selection when the Production tracking function is loaded, either from the menu or from an action in a linked function. The default entry screen will be displayed and a choice will not be offered if you do not define additional transactions to the standard or master Production tracking entry format.

Warning You are advised to get a basic understanding of how your system works before changing the master entry definition.

Tab Operation/Manufacturing

You use this section to provide default entry fields and values.

The Time type and Product type fields control display of the tracking type in the Production tracking sections Operations and Manufacturing respectively. This information can be useful when viewing and modifying plans containing different types of tracking.

Field descriptions

Operation tracking

Time type (field TYPTPS)

Parameter used to define the display type.

Unit can be modified (field OPEUOMMOD)

Use this checkbox to permit (select) or prevent (clear) modification of the operation unit.

Default unit (field OPEUOMTYP)

Use this field to define the default operation tracking unit. This can be defined as the operation unit or the stock unit of the produced product.

Employee ID entry (field MATRICULE)

Use this field to identify, for this entry transaction, if entry of an employee code is:

  • Mandatory: An Employee ID needs to be assigned.
  • Optional: An Employee ID can optionally be assigned.
  • Prohibited: The Employee ID cannot be assigned. The Employee ID field is not available for entry.

If entered, operation tracking results will be filtered for the employee.

Non-conformance - process (field NCSPRO)

Use this field to identify, for this entry transaction, if a non-conformance can be raised against an operational process in a routing. An operational process in this context is defined as a specific numbered operation in a routing, or an operation in a routing specifically related to a previous operation, that is the operation has a successor. This checkbox is only displayed if the NCS-Non-conformance activity code is active.

 Before setting the value of this checkbox you are advised to consider the role of users that have access to this entry transaction. Essentially this checkbox identifies if the user of this entry transaction can raise a non-conformance incident requesting an investigation into a potential "problem", where the source of the problem is an operation in a route. Typical routing operations within a manufacturing environment that could cause a problem (a non-conformity) might be that the setup and run time are not adapted to the machine, the order of an operation needs to be changed, additional operations are necessary or a more stable machine needs to be used. Employees with the experience to raise a non-conformity against a perceived fault in an operational process are typically, therefore, the more senior or skilled workers such as a foreman, shop floor manager and design engineer. In many organizations, an employee might not have the skills to determine a non-conformity for a process but they might have the skills to determine a non-conformity on a resource such as reporting a broken machine or a defective tool. If this entry transaction applies to that group or those types of employees you should consider setting the Non-conformance - resource checkbox (field NCSRES) instead.

Non-conformance - resource (field NCSRES)

Use this field to identify, for this entry transaction, if a non-conformance can be raised against a resource used for a routing operation. A resource in this context is defined as a single machine (a work center), or a work center group, or a labor resource, or both a machine and a labor resource. This checkbox is only displayed if the NCS-Non-conformance activity code is active.

 Before setting the value of this checkbox you are advised to consider the role of users that have access to this entry transaction. Essentially this checkbox identifies if the user of this entry transaction can raise a non-conformance incident requesting an investigation into a potential "problem", where the source of the problem is a resource used for an operation in a route. Operational resources within a manufacturing environment that typically result in a problem (a non-conformity) often occur at setup and run-time. For example, a machine does not comply or is set outside the agreed tolerances, the allocated welding time of 10 seconds does not provide a strong enough join, 15 seconds is required, or a tool is defective. If this entry transaction applies to employees that have the skills or authorization to report these types of non-conformities, select this checkbox.

Production reporting

Product type (field TYPART)

Parameter used to define the display type.

Transaction group (field TRSFAM)

Movement group, initialized by the movement group of the transaction being used.
This statistical information is recorded in the stock journal when saving the receipt/disposal movements. This movement group comes from the miscellaneous table number 9. The value given in the transaction setup corresponds to a default value that can/cannot be visualized and/or modified according to the transaction setup (entered, displayed, hidden field).

Statistical information used in the stock transactions associated with the shipment. This value is fixed if the original document does not reference a movement group. Otherwise, the movement group of the document at the origin of the quality control is suggested in priority.

Auto journal code (field ENTCOD)

This field is used for this transaction to specify the code of the accounting automatic journal used to generate, via the stock accounting interface, the accounting entries with respect to the stock movements created with this transaction.
This field can only be accessed if the SCOIFA - WIP accounting interface parameter is set to No.

Movement code (field TRSCOD)

A stock transaction code is used to specify rules within a similar transaction type.

These codes need to be created in the miscellaneous table number 14.

The movement code is used to define specific stock receipt and issue rules for some transactions. For example, a dedicated transaction associated with experienced users can authorize the receipt to stock of goods in A status while the other users may be associated with a transaction authorizing the receipt to stock of goods in Q status.
WarningThis will only be possible for product categories authorizing this type of receipt rules and having such a movement code. (See Product category.)

Tab Materials

You use this section to provide default entry fields and values if material consumption tracking is available with this entry transaction (as defined in the General section). This includes the following information:

The following combinations of filters are possible:

The value given in the transaction setup corresponds to a default value that can/cannot be visualized and/or modified according to the transaction setup (entered, displayed, hidden field).

Statistical information used in the stock transactions associated with the shipment. This value is fixed if the original document does not reference a movement group. Otherwise, the movement group of the document at the origin of the quality control is suggested in priority.

Auto journal code (field ENTCODS)

This field is used for this transaction to specify the code of the accounting automatic journal used to generate, via the stock accounting interface, the accounting entries with respect to the stock movements created with this transaction.
This field can only be accessed if the SCOIFA - WIP accounting interface parameter is set to No.

Movement code (field TRSCODS)

A stock transaction code is used to specify rules within a similar transaction type.

These codes need to be created in the miscellaneous table number 14.

The movement code is used to define specific stock receipt and issue rules for some transactions. For example, a dedicated transaction associated with experienced users can authorize the receipt to stock of goods in A status while the other users may be associated with a transaction authorizing the receipt to stock of goods in Q status.
WarningThis will only be possible for product categories authorizing this type of receipt rules and having such a movement code (see Product category).

Automatic determination (field STKFLG)

Select this checkbox to specify that the stock to issue for this transaction should be automatically determined. The automatically determined stock information is the product, the unit, and the quantity.

If this checkbox is not selected, the stock needs to be manually chosen.

Automatic determination is based on:

  • the filters entered at product category level, especially the issue flow management rules for the relevant movement type/code.
  • the allocation rule dedicated to the relevant movement,
  • the stock information entered on the line.

The automatic determination rules applied to stock to issue are the following:

  • If the product is managed by Receipt/Issue serial number, the serial numbers are necessary and sufficient. Other entered information is not used.
  • If the product is managed by lot or lot/sublot, the lot number or lot/sublot numbers are necessary. The following information is used if it has been entered:
    • The license plate number (in priority) or the location
    • The status, the identifiers 1 and 2
  • For the other products, at least one of these three pieces of information is needed.
    • The license plate number (in priority) or the location
    • Identifier 1
    • Identifier 2

The following information is used if it has been entered:

  • The license plate number (in priority) or the location
  • The status, the identifiers 1 and 2

If the product is not managed by location on the site, and identifiers 1 and 2 are not specified, then only one stock line corresponds to the information entered.


When the entry transaction only concerns "pick location" replenishments, this checkbox cannot be accessed.
