You can use four events as triggers in Assembly Control.
These events are:
- Complete Line Station Orders
- Offset Line Station Orders
- Start Assembly Order
- Freeze Line Station Orders
Process Trigger Definition (tiasl8100m000)Use this session to define the processes that occur at a specific line station, or the session that is triggered by that event.
Process You can use four events as triggers in Assembly Control. These events are:
Triggered by Station The line station on which the event takes place that triggers
the session. For example, you can state that the session must be carried out on
a main assembly line when the order is completed in a supplying assembly
line. You define the trigger in the Process field. Station The line station for which the triggered process has to be
performed, such as the printing of the work instructions on that line station.
This can either be the same line station as the one that triggers the process,
or another one. Assembly Kit The assembly kit for which the triggered process is performed.
This kit should have kit type Product.
Kit is only applicable in combination with Session/Model in Replenish Shop Floor Warehouse (tiasc8210m000). Session/Model The name of the formal workflow process or the session name of
the session that you want to trigger, which you have defined in your workflow
model. You can trigger the following sessions: Process Type The name of a process used by the software in the Enterprise Modeler package. In this field, you have the following options:
Device If the process produces a report, the device that prints or
displays the report. Job Sequence Type The planned requirement date and the planned requirement time
of the assembly part requirements are calculated on the basis of what you enter
in the Job Sequence Type field in the Replenish Shop Floor Warehouse (tiasc8210m000) session. You can schedule materials based on the planned sequence of the line station for which the materials are scheduled (called-off), but this is not always a realistic solution because the planned sequence can differ from the actual sequence. If the planned and actual sequences differ, you can send a message based on the actual sequence the line station on which the triggers are activated. With this solution, materials are only scheduled for the assembly orders that have already passed the trigger point. LN calculates the arrival times of the materials based on:
Note The planned requirement date of items that are ordered with order-controlled/batch is always based on the planned start times of the assembly orders. Therefore, the calculation of the planned requirement date, based on the actual sequence, can only be used by order-controlled/batch items. The field can have the values Planned and Actual. If the assembly order at Triggered by Station is not completed or closed, the Job Sequence Type can only be set to Planned, because no actual timings will be present for the order at this line station. You can set the Job Sequence Type to Planned or Actual, if the assembly order at Triggered by Station is completed or closed. This is because the actual timings will be present for the order at this line station. If you select Planned, the assembly parts are ordered in a supply line sequence that is based on the planned start time of the line station order. If you select Actual, the assembly parts are ordered in a sequence that is based on the actual sequence. You can consider the next sequenced assembly order in the line sequence, if the following conditions are met:
When the replenish process is executed, order controlled SILS / batch messages are generated. These messages are not automatically transferred to Warehousing and Purchase Control. To transfer these messages, the Transfer Assembly Part Supply Messages (tiasc8220m000) must be run, which is normally run as a scheduled job. The transfer order number is only filled if the Order Controlled SILS/Batch Messages are transferred to Warehousing and Purchase Control, using the Transfer Assembly Part Supply Messages (tiasc8220m000) session. The Transfer Order Number is filled in the Line Station - Assembly Part Supply Transfer (Batch) (tiasc8510m000) session and in the Assembly Part Supply Transfer (SILS) (tiasc8520m000) session.
