| | Estimated Tool Requirements (titrp0111m000)Use this session to modify the estimated
tool requirements for production orders, and to list tool requirements for
service orders, and work orders. Order Type The type of order for which you can plan the tool availability. If a production order has the Scheduled status, you cannot
alter its tool requirements. Note - You can only modify the estimated tools requirements for
production orders. The work orders and service orders requirements are
maintained in Service.
- If you click the New Group button, only production orders
are displayed. The Order Type field is disabled. To access work orders and service orders,
press CTRL + F. The Estimated Tool Requirements - Find window pops up, and you
can select your order from the Order Type field.
Order Number This field represents the types of orders for which you can
plan the tool availability. If a production order has the Scheduled status, you cannot
alter its tool requirements. Note There can only be one estimated tool requirement present
for a refurbishing order. No line number or activity line is specified for the
refurbishing order. Operation One of a series of steps in a routing that are carried out
successively to produce an item. The following data is collected during a routing operation: - The task. For example, sawing.
- The machine used to carry out the task (optional). For
example, sawing machine.
- The place where the task is carried out (work center). For
example, woodwork.
- The number of employees required to carry out the task.
This data is used to compute order lead times, to plan
production orders and to calculate cost prices. This field is only relevant for production orders. Operation Step A suboperation connected to a routing operation. An operation step can contain information such as,
instructions, process information, and tools information. Activity Line The activity line for which the tool is issued. This field is
only relevant for refurbishing orders from Service. Tool Type The tool type is the first level that is used to identify the
tool in the coding system for tools. Some examples of tool types are: - Hammer
- Screwdriver
- Wheelbarrows
Hammer 1, screwdriver 2 and wheelbarrow 3 are examples of
tool types in combination with a tool serial number, and represent unique
tools. Tooltypes are defined in the Tool Types (titrp0101m000) session. Tool Serial Number A number to identify a tool. The combination of a tool type,
for example, hammer, and a tool serial number, for example, 1, results in a
unique identification of a tool in LN. The tool serial number is defined in the Tools by Tool Type (titrp0102m000) session. Use in TRP Planning If this check box is selected, the tool is used for
planning purposes as well as printed on the production order documents for
instruction purposes. If this check box is cleared, the tool is only printed
by operation on the production order documents, and not used for tool planning
purposes. Tool's Life Based On The tool's life can be based on the number of times the tool can be used or the number of hours the tool can perform. Tool Usage Amount of the tool's life that will be used during the
operation or activity. When reporting operations complete for SFC Production Order and service activities for Service Order, the tool's remaining tool life is reduced by the amount
specified in this field. You can maintain the tool usage field to plan the tool for
a longer time, such as for refurbishing reasons. The Tool's Life Based On is expressed in the Number of Times Used or the Number of Hours Used, depending on the default entered in Tool's Life Based On field in the Estimated Tool Requirements (titrp0111m000) session. Tool Requirement Status The status of the estimated tool requirement. | |
