Notes

This editable text field displays routing header notes.

For new rows, this field is populated with the notes associated with the Routing No.

If you modify the notes, your changes are saved separately in the Costpoint database if there is at least one routing operation row. Upon implementation, your changes are reflected in this routing header notes field.

Routing No

Enter, or use to select, the routing number of the part to be built. This value is limited to two digits and is populated from the main screen, but it can be changed.

Include Alternate Operations

Select this check box to have the system pull in alternate operations on the selected routing. When creating or updating the MO, you can choose which routing operations, alternate operations, and steps to record against the MO. When using a routing that has alternate operations, the system validates the row for matching operation sequences and alternate operations with a value greater than zero. If you click the Auto-Load button, the system displays the message "Alternate Operations exist for this routing, please delete the Operation Sequences and steps that are no longer applicable." If you add a new line and enter this information, and the same operation sequence/alternate operation already exists, this message displays: "You have chosen a routing with alternate routing operations, please manually delete any operations you do not want to use with this Manufacturing Order."

Table Window

This table window displays labor and/or subcontract routings for this MO. If a line's Lab/Subcon field is "L" (Labor), the operation information is populated by default from the Maintain Labor Operations screen in Costpoint Routings. Similarly, if a line's Lab/Subcon field is "S" (Subcontract), the operation information is populated by default from the Maintain Subcontract Operations screen. If you did not select the Load Capacity Planning Routing Lines to MO check box in the Production Control Settings screen, capacity planning-only routing lines (where the Step Type is "P" for the routing line in the Maintain Routings and/or Release Routings screens in Costpoint Routings) is excluded when you select the Auto-Load button.

Auto-Load

Click this button to automatically load routing lines. This pulls in only routings of the build part. Subassembly routings are not included, no matter how many levels of explosion are requested in the main screen. The routing number at the top of the screen determines which of the build part's routing lines are loaded. You cannot auto-load Routings after timesheets have been entered against the MO or if the MO is completed or closed.

The Auto-Load function included routing lines with a starting effective date earlier than, or the same as, the As of Date in the main screen (for the MO build part) and an ending effective date (if not blank) later than the As of Date.

If you select the Include Alternate Operations check box, the Auto-Load function loads alternate routing lines (resulting in duplicate operation and step numbers). If you enter an active routing number for the build part and select the Auto-Load button, even if the routing table window is populated, the system displays the following warning:

"Routing rows already exist for this MO. Auto-loading routings will overwrite existing routing rows."

If you select Yes, the table window is populated with the routing information for the routing specified in the Routing No field. If you select No, you will return to the subtask as it currently displays.

If you did not select the Allow Full Changes on MO Routing Lines check box in the Production Control Settings screen, you can select and load alternate work centers. You can delete routing lines only if alternates exist. You cannot add new lines.
