Starting a Single Job

Job Booking is a transaction belonging to the Labor Sub-Menu on the Warehouse Mobility icon based and list based menus.

On the Labor Sub-Menu:

  1. Select Job Booking.
  2. Scan your employee ID or badge number and select Next.
  3. Specify or review this information:
    Employee
    Your employee ID or badge number is displayed.
    Hours Today/This Week
    The number of hours that you and, if applicable, your team have worked today is displayed to the left of the slash; the number of hours worked this week is displayed to the right of the slash.
    Current Job
    The current job you are working on is displayed.
    New Job Type
    Select the type of job to which you are reporting labor and, if applicable, quantities.
    Note: If the user specifies the job type as Production, the application checks if the labor set is backflushed. If the user posts labor to a job where labor is backflushed already, a warning or reject message is prompted. Based on the Backflush Option parameter setting the following types of action is performed:
    • If the parameter is set to Warning, the application gives a warning, if the employee tries to start or report time against a backflush job. The employee can choose to override this warning.
    • If the parameter is set to Reject, the application gives a rejection message, if the employee tries to start or report time against a backflush job. The employee cannot override this message.
    • If the parameter is set to Ignore, the application allows an employee to start or report time against a backflush job without any warning message.
