Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000)

Use this session to maintain and display the serialized end items built in the Assembly Control (ASC) module or the Shop Floor Control (SFC) module.

For every individual serialized item of an assembly order or a production order a line is present in this session. For example, for an ordered quantity of six items, six lines are present in this session, each line having a serial number that is a unique identification of a single physical item. An example of a serial number is the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) of a car.

If you select an item in this session, and you click As-Built Components from the appropriate menu, the serialized components of each serialized end item are displayed in the Serial End Item - As-Built Components (timfc0111m000) session. The serialized end item and its serialized components form together the as-built structure, which enables you to track order data, and to investigate which components are in each individual end item.

Shop Floor Control (SFC)

The moment you can display the as-built structure of a serialized item produced in Shop Floor Control depends on the Serial Generation Moment field in the Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session. At various moments, you can enable LN to generate serial numbers based on a mask. If the mask is not present, you must insert serial numbers manually.

Assembly Control (ASC)

Serial numbers can be generated when you have confirmed the line sequence in Assembly Control. You can then display the as-built structure of the item.

Note

You can only delete an as-built serial item if the serial status is Created.

 

Production / Assembly Order

The production order or the assembly order for which the serialized item is produced.

Item

The parent item for which the serialized item is derived.

Operation for Rejects

Specify the operation for which serials are Rejected from the production order when you click Set to 'Rejected'.

Quantity Ordered

The order quantity to be produced. The estimates of materials and hours are based on this quantity.

If no routing or date has been entered yet, the calendar is based on the default routing and 100% utilization.

If you are using production order distribution when you alter the value of the current field, the value of the Quantity Ordered field in the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session for each of the effectivity units will be altered so that their total is the same as the value of the current field, and the quantity is evenly distributed between each of the effectivity units.

When a distribution is present the quantity ordered is controlled by the sum of the quantity ordered for the distribution lines.

Serial Number
Lot Code

A number of items produced and stored together that are identified by a (lot) code. Lots identify goods.

Item Effectivity Unit

The item's effectivity unit.

Note

When project pegging is implemented, only zero or one effectivity unit is allowed on the distribution lines of one production order.

Serial Status

The status of the end item's serial number.

Allowed values

Serial Number Status

Rejected At Operation

View the number of the operation specified in the Operation for Rejects field at which serials are removed from the production order.

Valid

If this check box is selected, the as-built structure is complete. An as-built structure is complete when serial numbers are present for serialized components, and lot numbers for lot-controlled (serialized) items. LN automatically checks the completeness of the as-built structure when the serial status changes (manually or automatically) from Created or Rejected to Assigned.

If an as-built structure is not valid, you cannot copy the as-built structure to an as-maintained structure in the Create Physical Breakdown Structure (tscfg2210m000) session. Furthermore, if the Check as-built serials field in the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session is Warn or Block, the item cannot be shipped.

Rework Order

If a rework order exists for the serialized item, this field displays the rework order number.

As-Built Components

LN starts the Serial End Item - As-Built Components (timfc0111m000) session. In this session you can display the components of the serialized item.

Generate Serial Numbers

If you click this button, LN generates serial numbers for the items produced for the assembly order.

Validate

Click to check if the as-built structure is complete. An as-built structure is complete when serial numbers are present for serialized components, and lot numbers for lot-controlled (serialized) items. An as-built structure is incomplete when serial numbers and/or lot numbers are missing.
