Issuing Material to Jobs

Job

A job number required to issue material.

Note:  If the job number is not specified, the application displays this message: There is not one Job Operation where Complete exists for the Job that has [Job: (Blank)].

Suffix

A sub-assembly of another job.

Operation

An operation numbers.

Material

The material in use.

Note: When the BOM material specified is negative, the material is displayed with ‘*’ symbol. The Issue By-Product check box is selected by default.

Warehouse

A warehouse from which the material is issued.

Note: Warehouse details are displayed based on the values specified for the Job and Suffix fields.

Location

A staging location from which the material is issued.

Note: Location details are displayed based on the values specified for the Job and Suffix fields.

Issue Qty

The quantity of material to be issued.

Issue By-Product

Select this check box to issue material as a by-product. The Job Order, Suffix, Operation and Material field values of the previously issued by-product are defaulted until all the required quantity for the material is issued.

Note: The recursive logic is not applicable for non-BOM items.

Document Number

A document number for the material transaction.

Note: 

• The document number is refreshed only if the Job number or Suffix is updated. You can perform multiple transactions for job and suffix combination using the same document number.
• The job and suffix combination can be edited based on the global parameter document number.

Import Document Number

Scan the import document number.

Note: This field is only displayed if the Track Tax-Free Imported Materials parameter is selected on the Inventory Parameters form and the Tax-Free Imported Material check box is selected for the item you are issuing.

To Container

Select this check box to issue the completed items to a container. This check box is only displayed if you do not have the Time Track module implemented and this is the last operation.

Container

Scan a container to which to issue the completed items. Optionally, leave blank to generate a new container number. This field is only displayed if the To Container check box is selected.

• If applicable, select a lot number on the Lot/Serial tab.
• If applicable, specify the lot number in the Confirm Lot field.
• If applicable, the quantity of serial numbers that are assigned, are displayed in the Un-Assigned field on the Lot/Serial tab. To assign serial numbers to the material you are issuing, select the arrow button. See Assigning Serial Numbers for details.  You must assign all unassigned serial numbers to issue the material.
• If applicable, specify this information on the Lot/Serial tab:

Job Lot

A Job lot number to which the material is assigned. You can select from a list of pre-assigned lot numbers for the job. The job lot number tracks the items that are assembled from the material.

Note: The selected lot is defaulted until the inventory is available for that lot. If the inventory is not available, a blank value is displayed. You can then select another lot from the list based on the location. The value of the Job Lot is defaulted until all the quantity required for the operations are issued or the job and suffix values are modified.

Job Serial

A job serial number to which the material is assigned. You can select from a list of pre-assigned serial numbers for the job. The job serial number tracks the item that are assembled from the material.

Note: The value of the Job Serial is defaulted until all the quantity required for the operations are issued or the job and suffix values are modified.

The values of the previously issued job material are defaulted in the Job Order, Suffix, Operation and Material fields, until the required quantity for the material is issued completely. However, the default values can be modified during the Job Material Issue process. The Discrete Transaction parameter in the transaction parameters must be disabled to use this functionality.

The Material field is cleared only after all the quantities are issued. Similarly, the Job Order and Operation field values are defaulted until all the required materials are issued. However, you can modify these default values during the Job Material Issue process. If you modify the field values before all the quantity is issued, the latest value for these fields are defaulted until all quantities for the material are issued.

Note:

• The label is printed automatically, or the Label Printing form is displayed if the Print Labels parameter is selected for this transaction. See Printing Labels for information about printing labels using the Label Printing form. To close the form without issuing material, select the Close button.
• If the Allow Cross-Docking parameter is selected for this transaction, this order is not cross-referenced to another order, and there are open cross docking requirements, to cross dock. For instructions on cross docking, see Cross Docking Items.
