Manage Manufacturing Orders

Use the Manage Manufacturing Orders screen to create, maintain, and view information about manufacturing orders.

You can issue Component Parts to manufacturing orders, charge timesheets to them, and create special requisitions and purchase orders to capture subcontractor operation costs required for a part. The system captures all the costs related to these activities and uses them to value the completed parts on an MO. You can copy Manufacturing Bills of Material (MBOMs) to an MO to generate a material requirement list and a corresponding inventory reservation. You can copy routings to MOs as well to record all labor and subcontractor processing requirements required to build.

Note: If a part exists in an engineering change notice, on the Manage Engineering Change Notices screen, and the ECN's Status is Pending, In-Approval, Approved, or Documents Updated, and the Provide Warning for Parts and Documents with Open ECNs check box is selected on the Configure Engineering Change Notice Settings screen, the system displays a warning message with the ECN ID and status code when the part is loaded (either as a build part or MBOM component).

Use this screen to create and maintain manufacturing orders as required.

This screen has three tabs:

• Details: Use this tab to enter manufacturing order detail.
• Additional Info: Use this tab to enter additional information about a manufacturing order.
• Notes: Use this tab to enter text about this relief transaction.
• Project Manufacturing: Use this tab to indicate if the manufacturing order will be sent to Manufacturing Execution or Shop Floor Time.
