Printing the Job Packet

The Job Packet form prints the paperwork that follows the actual job throughout the production process, including these:

Option Description
Job Header Provides a summary of the job, including:
  • Status of the job
  • Item description
  • Details about how the job was created
  • Information about job material quantities
  • Job schedule dates
Job Traveller Provides, in sequential order, a listing with details of all the stages (work centers) involved in the job.
Operation Listing Provides a detailed list, for each unit, of the materials and time required at each stage (work center) of the job.
Material Pick List Provides a detailed list of all the materials required to complete the job. This report indicates:
  • The quantity of each material item required
  • The quantity available
  • A place for someone to notate the quantity actually picked up.
Job Tickets Provides a form that employees can use to manually record labor and productivity information. This form can be used later to enter the information into the database, using the Unposted Job Transactions form.
Note:  The Material Pick List option executed from this report does not post any materials to the journals. To post and allow the system to pick needed material, use the Job Pick List report.
  1. Enter a starting and ending job number, item, operation, and job date, and accept the remaining defaults. See the help topics for individual fields for descriptions of options on this report.
  2. Click the Print button to print the report. If the Job Number starting and/or ending fields are left blank, a message will display asking you to verify that you meant to leave them blank. If you did, click Yes. If you click No, the print job will be canceled and you will be given the opportunity to add a range of job numbers.

You can select a variety of options in several combinations on this form. However, to limit system memory usage, Infor recommends that you accept the default Job Status selections as well as specify a starting and ending job number. Then select Actions > Store Options to save selection criteria. To retrieve your saved options, select Actions > Get Options.

After you print the job packet, you can record labor and move finished goods to inventory using job transactions.
