Stopping Job Operations

Use the End Run form to stop job operations. You can report completed and moved quantities, scrap items, and assign lot and serial numbers when stopping job operations. To perform these activities for a job operation that has not started, use the End Run Only form.

Note:  The "End Run Only" form is a time track only form.

To stop a job operation:

  1. Open the End Run form.
    Note: If the End Run form is started from the Home page the form defaults the job fields from the start run record for the employee. If no start record is found, the form displays the message: Employee: xxx does not have a run transaction running with an ok button. When the employee clicks the button the form is closed.
  2. Optionally, specify a date and time to record for this transaction. The current date and time is specified by default. You can only modify the date and time if your user ID has the appropriate authorizations on the User Extensions form.
  3. Specify a job and job suffix. The item number, unit of measure, warehouse, and job status are displayed along with the total, scrapped, completed, and remaining quantities. To view the current progress of each operation in the selected job, select the Progress tab.
  4. Select the operation number you are stopping. The work center where the operation will be performed is displayed along with the time the operation started and the elapsed time.
  5. Specify or review this information:
    Good
    Specify the number of completed items for the selected operation.
    Moved
    Specify the number of completed items to move to the next operation. This value might be specified by default. If Time Track is implemented and this is the last operation on the order, this field is unavailable.
    Complete Operation
    If you are completing the operation, select this check box. This check box is only available if Allow Operation Complete is selected for this transaction.
    Close Job
    If you are completing the operation and it is the last operation on the job, select this check box. This check box is only available if Time Track is not implemented and Allow Close Job is selected for this transaction.
    Combine Labor and Machine Time
    Select this check box to report machine time as a ratio of labor time for this operation. Clear this check box to report machine time manually in a separate transaction. If the Time Track module in Infor Factory Track is implemented, this check box is only available if the Combine Labor and Machine Time check box is selected for your employee type on the Employee Types form.
    Machine Ratio
    This field is only displayed if Combine Labor and Machine Time is selected and if the Time Track module in Infor Factory Track is implemented. Specify a machine ratio. The machine ratio determines what portion of the reported labor time will be reported for the machine. For example, a ratio of .5 will report half the reported labor time for the machine. If the Time Track module is not implemented and the Combine Labor and Machine Time check box is selected, this field is unavailable and machine time will be reported as a one-to-one ratio to labor time.
    Resource ID
    Employees can select a resource ID for starting a labour transaction if the Combine Labor and Machine Time check box is selected.
    • You can only view the resource ID field on start and end forms, if the Display Resource ID is selected.
    • The resource ID displays resources that are in the resource groups on the Syteline job operations form's resource tab.
    • Employee can only select resources associated with the job, if the parameter Only allow job resource is selected. However, employee can enter any valid resource if Only allow job resource is not selected.
    • The Machine Resource field is displayed and the value is based on the validation of the resource ID field.
    Location
    If applicable, specify the stock location where the completed items are to be received. This field is only available if:
    • the last operation of the job is selected
    • the Put Away parameter is selected for this transaction
    • and Time Track is not implemented
    Issue to Parent
    Select Yes to issue completed items from this sub-assembly job to its parent job. This field is only displayed if:
    • the Prompt for issue to Parent Job parameter is selected on the Generic MES_JobMove Parameters form
    • a parent job is defined as the destination for the completed items
    • this is last operation for this sub-assembly job
    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, use the Details tab to display operation related data. The tab displays the received quantity of the operation.
    • If applicable, use the Scrap tab to scrap items. See Scrapping Items for details. This tab is only available if Allow Scrap is selected for this transaction.
    • If applicable, specify the lot number on the Lot/Serial tab. If backflushing is required or Time Track is implemented, the Lot/Serial tab is unavailable.
    • If applicable, select the arrow button on the Lot/Serial tab to assign serial numbers. See Assigning Serial Numbers for details. You must assign all unassigned serial numbers to stop the operation. If backflushing is required or Time Track is implemented, the Lot/Serial tab is unavailable.
    • If applicable, select Backflush Lots to backflush material for other operations. See Backflushing Lot Material for Job Operations for details. This button is only available if the item is lot-controlled, and the item and operation are eligible for backflushing.
    • If applicable, select Backflush Serials to backflush serialized material for other operations. See Backflushing Serialized Material for Job Operations for details. This button is only available if the item is lot-controlled, and the item and operation are eligible for backflushing.
    • To stop the selected operation, select the green process button.

    If you are creating a new lot, you might be prompted to specify lot attributes. If the Lot Attributes form is displayed, specify lot attributes. See Specifying Lot Attributes for details.

    If the Print Labels parameter is selected for this transaction, labels are automatically printed or the Label Printing form is opened. See Printing Labels for information about printing labels using the Label Printing form.
