Items - Production Defaults (tiipd0102m000)

Use this session to find, list, or maintain item-production default data for item types and item groups. Enter item groups in the Item Groups (tcmcs0123m000) session.

Note

If you enter an item in the Items - Production Defaults (tiipd0102m000) session, LN retrieves the item-production data that is defined for the item type and/or item group that belongs to the item.

 

Item Group

Groups of items with common characteristics. Item groups can be used in combination with item types to store various types of data. When you record items that belong to a particular item type and group, the default values stored under the item type/group appear on the screen.

Item Type

Places the item in a group of items, so that certain functions of the package apply only to that item.

Note

You can only select the manufactured, purchased, or generic item type.

Allowed values

Item type

Default Supply Source

Specify the supply source that is assigned to de item if no particular supply is specified.

Allowed values

Supply Source

BOM
BOM Quantity

Defines the number of manufactured items on which the item's bill of material is based. The current field enables you to specify very small item quantities as bill of material components.

Scrap Factor

The percentage used to anticipate the loss of quantity in the manufacturing process of a product.

Scrap Quantity

The quantity used to anticipate the loss of quantity in the manufacturing process of a product.

Specify Warehouse in BOM

If this check box is selected, and you define the bill of material (BOM), you must specify the warehouse for each component. As a result, when a dependent demand explosion is performed, the component items are supplied by the warehouse as defined for the BOM line in the Bill of Material (tibom1110m000) details session.

If this check box is cleared, and consequently no warehouse is defined for the BOM line, the warehouse that is defined in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) details session supplies the component items that are determined in the dependent demand explosion.

Phantom
Phantom

The default value for the Phantom field in the Items - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.

When Item is Material
Issue Unlinked Materials At

The default value for the Issue Unlinked Materials At field in the Items - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.

Routing
Order Lead Time

Indicates how many workdays are required to manufacture the item before the item becomes available.

Routing Quantity

The quantity of the manufactured item on which the routing is based. This unit enables you to include very short operation times in the routing of an item.

Quantity-dependent Routing

If this check box is selected, LN selects a particular routing. The selection depends on the order quantity, therefore, the operation times for an item can depend on the order quantity.

Note

This does not apply to generic items.

Subcontracting with Material Flow

The default value for the Subcontracting with Material Flow field in the Items - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.

Methods
Backflush Materials

If this check box is selected, the components are issued through backflushing.

Serialized items

Serialized items can only be backflushed if in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared, and the Register Serial Issue During As Built field is Yes. In all other cases, serialized items cannot be backflushed.

If the serialized item is lot-controlled, the lot from which the items are backflushed is based on the outbound method ( Last In First Out (LIFO), First In First Out (FIFO)) as is defined in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session.

Backflush Hours

If this check box is selected, you can backflush the hours spent to manufacture the item to a backflush employee.

Backflush if Material

If this check box is selected, the item is backflushed when it is used as a component in the product structure of another item.

Serialized items can only be backflushed if in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared, and the Register Serial Issue During As Built field is Yes. In all other cases, serialized items cannot be backflushed.

If the serialized item is lot-controlled, the lot from which the items are backflushed is based on the outbound method ( Last In First Out (LIFO), First In First Out (FIFO)) as is defined in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session.

Direct Process Warehouse Order line

If this check box is selected, the warehouse outbound procedure is carried out automatically after that materials in the warehouse are unblocked.

If this check box is cleared, and you unblock warehouse order lines using the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session, the quantity to issue is added to the To Issue by Warehousing field in the Material to Issue for Production Orders (ticst0101m100) details session. You must carry out the rest of the warehousing procedure manually.

If you use the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session, warehouse order lines for the materials to issue are unblocked. You can also select the Direct Initiate Inventory Issue check box for the materials. In that case, warehouse order lines are automatically unblocked during production order release.

Critical for Inventory Check

This check box is the default value for the Critical for Inventory Check check box in the Items - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.

Direct Initiate Inventory Issue

If this check box is selected, the warehouse order line for the material is automatically unblocked during production order release. Consequently, you do not need to run the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session to unblock the material.

If this check box is cleared, and if the material is not backflushed, you must use the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session to unblock the material's warehouse order line.

An unblocked warehouse order line serves as a signal for the warehouse employees to begin the warehouse outbound procedure, starting with an outbound advice for the material. The warehouse outbound procedure results in material sent to the shop floor. If the Direct Process Warehouse Order Line check box is selected for the material, the warehouse outbound procedure is carried out automatically.

Repetitive
Repetitive Item

RPT (repetitive) item.

The item is an RPT (repetitive) item if:

  • It is produced in relatively large quantities.
  • It is subject to repetitive demand.
  • It is produced anonymously.
  • The production is based on a rate.
  • The production is controlled through schedules.
  • The lead time is relatively short.
Schedule Code

A repetitive item is produced in large quantities and is subject to repetitive demand. LN handles the production of repetitive items through schedules, which have schedule codes.

Note

The schedule code is mandatory, and is defined in the Items - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.

Rate Factor for Planning

If this check box is selected, rate factors are used for repetitive items during planning.

Note

The Job Shop Production Schedules check box in the Repetitive Manufacturing Parameters (tirpt0100m000) session must be selected for this parameter to apply.
