Production Order Group - Production Orders (tisfc0501m100)

Use this session to display the contents of an production order group. In addition, you can use the options in the appropriate menu to release production orders, report production as completed, backflush material and hours, and close production orders. You can also add or remove production orders to an order group.

Source of orders in this session

You can create order groups by carrying out the following two steps:

  1. Make an initial selection of production orders in the Create Production Order Group (tisfc3250m000) session.
  2. Accept or reject individual orders as part a an order group in the Assign Orders to Production Order Group (tisfc3151s000) session (started from the Create Production Order Group (tisfc3250m000) session).

Or you can transfer orders from the Enterprise Planning package using the following session:

Production Order
An order to produce a specified quantity of an item on a specified delivery date.
Order Data
Item
The end item of the production order.
Quantity Ordered
The order quantity to be produced.
Production Start Date and Time
The date that the production is planned to start.
Delivery Date
This date is created by Configurator or the Job Shop Control module when the order is created. It is initially the date when the buyer has requested delivery, but LN will alter this date if the planning is changed.

This date is affected by the following parameters:

Backflush Materials
If this check box is selected, you can backflush the material that is required to produce the item.

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.

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) or First In First Out (FIFO)) as is specified in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) details session.

Calculation Office
A work center of the type Costing that is used to determine the enterprise unit for a project, or production order and also has an administrative function.

The calculation office in this field is the default value for the Calculation Office field in the Production Orders (tisfc0501m000) details session.

Related topics

Quantity Backflushed
The quantity product for which materials are backflushed.
Quantity to Backflush
The quantity of items, whose components and/or hours still have to be backflushed.

If you backflush quantities, they are posted automatically when an operation is completed. The quantity is based on the hours estimated to be necessary to complete an operation rather than the actual number of hours worked on the operation or the materials estimated for an operation.

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

Related topics

Split Hours in Setup and Production
If this check box is selected, the estimated and actual hours of an operation are split up.

The estimated and actual hours of an operation can be split up in setup time hours and cycle time hours. This results in a setup part and a production part for the estimated and the actual man and machine hours as can be viewed in, for example, Estimated vs. Actual Hours Costs (ticst0502m000) session.

Note

Selecting this check box can negatively impact system performance if hours are backflushed. Hours are backflushed if the Backflush Hours check box in the Items - Production (tiipd0101m000) session is selected.

WIP Transfer Cost Component
Moment Freezing Estimates
The moment when LN freezes the estimated order costs. When the estimated order costs have been frozen, you can no longer modify the data in the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session.
Note
  • This field applies only when the Version Control check box is cleared in the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session.
  • The value in this field is the default value for the Moment Freezing Estimates field in the Production Orders (tisfc0501m000) details session.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Moment of freezing estimates.

Allowed values

Possible Values

Moment of Completion Posting
The moment when LN posts the financial transactions for the completed quantities to Financials.

For more information, see Moment of Completion Posting.

Calculation Date
The date on which the calculation of the estimated end item unit costs is based.

The date in the Calculation Date field in the Production Orders (tisfc0501m000) session is not necessarily the date when the calculation is performed, because you can define in the Calculate Estimated End Item Unit Costs (ticst0210m000) session another date than the current date for the calculation.

Note
Actual Closing date
The date and time when the production order was closed.
Financial Transactions by Work Center
If this check box is selected, you can view the production results by work center. The material costs and the hours costs are posted to the work center to which these costs apply.

If this check box is cleared, you can view the production results by production order. The surcharges, as well as the material costs and the hours costs, are posted to the production order's calculation office.

Note

The calculation office currency is also used for production orders that have no operations and work centers, but only materials.

Currencies

When you calculate the estimated costs, and a Dependent currency system is used, the Financial Transactions by Work Center check box also determines the currency that is used:

  • If this check box is selected, the local currency of the costing work center for which the costs are calculated is used.
  • If this check box is cleared, the currency of the calculation office is used.

Estimated end item unit costs

The calculation of the estimated end item unit costs depends on the Financial Transactions by Work Center check box and the cost view, that is, whether the costs are work-center-based or item-based:

Financial transactions by work centerWork center based costsItem based costs
No12
Yes34

 

1: The total end item unit costs are posted for each work center by detailed cost component. The only work center available is the calculation office. The costs are expressed in the calculation office's currency.

2: The total end item unit costs are posted for the calculation office by the item's effective cost component structure. The costs are expressed in the calculation office's currency.

3: The total end item unit costs are posted for a costing work center or a calculation office by detailed cost component. The costs on a work center include operation costs and material costs. The costs on the calculation office include (added) end item surcharges and the costs for unlinked materials. The costs are expressed in the local currency of the costing work center.

4: The total end item unit costs are posted for the calculation office by the item's effective cost component structure. The costs are expressed in the calculation office's currency.

Note

You can view the end item unit costs, work center-based as well as item-based, in the End Item Unit Costs (ticst0510m000) session.

WIP transfers

If the Financial Transactions by Work Center check box is cleared, WIP transfers are not calculated. Because the production results are viewed by production order, the costs are posted on the production order's calculation office, and no costs are posted on the work centers. Consequently, there is no need to calculate WIP transfers between different work centers.

Calculating efficiency/price variances

If a production order is closed, the Financial Transactions by Work Center check box determines on which level efficiency variances and price variances are calculated. The posting, however, depends on the posting methods that are defined in the following fields:

  • Posting Method Efficiency Variances on Calculation Office
  • Posting Method Price Variances to Calculation Office
  • Posting Method Efficiency Variances on Calculation Office
  • Posting Method Price Variances to Calculation Office

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Financial transactions by work center.

Estimated Costs Are Frozen
If this check box is selected, the estimated end item unit costs have been frozen, which means they can no longer be modified.

The moment the estimated end item unit costs are frozen depends on the Moment Freezing Estimates field.

Definitively Closed
If this check box is selected, all financial transactions for the production order are deleted by the Delete Production Order Transactions (ticst3200m000) session. You cannot reset the production order status anymore.
Use Actual Cost for Receipt Posting
If this check box is selected, end items are received in inventory at their actual costs, and valued according to the actual valuation method.
Use Actual Valuation for Subassembly Receipt Posting
If this check box is selected, subassemblies are received in inventory at their actual costs, and valued according to the defined actual valuation method.

Valuation methods are defined in Warehousing.

The actual valuation methods are:

  • Moving Average Unit Cost (MAUC)
  • First In First Out (FIFO)
  • Last In First Out (LIFO)
  • Lot Price (Lot)
