Using the Where Supplied option in the Item, Lot and Serial session

The Where Supplied option provides a top-down view of the item selected in the Selection (whltc3600m200) session. The top-down view is displayed in the graph that constitutes the Tracking (whltc3800m000) session.

In the graph, the item selected in the Selection (whltc3600m200) session is displayed in the top folders titles As Built and, if an as-maintained structure is present, As Maintained. The lower levels of the physical breakdown structure of the selected item are displayed in the subfolders.

For example, if the selected item is the end item, the cascading folders display the component items.

Note

  • To view the breakdown structure of an item in the graph, you must specify a lot or serial number in the Selection (whltc3600m200) session.

    If you specify an item without a lot or serial number in the Selection (whltc3600m200) session, the lot and serial numbers and the related transactions of this item are displayed in the Item, Lot and Serial Transactions (whltc3510m000) session.

  • The date displayed in the As Built heading in the graph is the transaction date of the warehouse receipt of the lot or serial specified in the Selection (whltc3600m200) session.

  • The date displayed in the As Maintained heading in the graph is the start date of the status of the lot or serial item specified in the Selection (whltc3600m200) session, if the specified item is a component.

    If the specified item is the end item, the As Maintained heading does not display a date. The start date of the status is taken from the Status Start Time field of the Physical Breakdowns (tscfg2110m000) session.

  • The status start time is not specified for the top node of the physical breakdown.

  • The As Maintained folder displays the current version of the as-maintained structure. Previous versions of the as-maintained structure are not supported.

If you right-click a folder in the graph, you can start various sessions in which details of the item, lot, and/or serial number contained in the folder are displayed.

If you select a folder in the graph, all transactional information relating to the item, lot, and/or serial number contained in the folder is displayed in the Item, Lot and Serial Transactions (whltc3510m000) session, which constitutes the lower half of the Item, Lot and Serial 360 (whltc3600m100) session.

Example

[...]

The picture shows the Item, Lot and Serial 360 (whltc3600m100) session, in which item A, serial number 14, and the Where Supplied option is selected. Item A was received in the warehouse on January 1, 2023.

In the graph, the user selects serial number 14 of item A and then selects item D, serial number 0039. This is one of the bottom-level components of the as-built structure of item A, serial 14.

Next, the user opened the as-maintained structure of item A and cascaded down to item D, serial number 0073. This component was used to replace the defective item D, serial number 0039.

In the lower half of the Item, Lot and Serial 360 (whltc3600m100) session the transactions related to item D, serial number 0073 are displayed. For example, the service order in which the replacement of item D, serial number 0039 with item D, serial number 0073 is registered.
