Assembly Lines (tiasl1530m000)

Use this session to display and define the general and costing data of an assembly line.

 

Assembly Line

A set of consecutive line stations in which FAS (Final Assembly Schedule) items are manufactured. The items are manufactured by passing the items from line station to line station and by carrying out operations at each line station. An assembly line is subdivided into a number of line segments separated by buffers. An assembly line can be either a main line or a supplying line.

Company

A working environment in which you can carry out logistic or financial transactions. All the transaction data is stored in the company's database.

Depending on the type of data that the company controls, the company is:

  • A logistic company.
  • A financial company.
  • A logistic and a financial company.

In a multicompany structure, some of the database tables can be unique for the company and the company can share other database tables with other companies.

WIP Transfer Handling

How the WIP transfer is carried out.

Configuration Dependent

If this check box is selected, the supply line can be included in the assembly line network model or exluded from the assembly line network model which is planned to be used for the assembly of the end item.

Calendar Code

The calendar code and availability type combination specified in the parameters, that defines the working times of the assembly line.

Costing data

Calculation Office

Specify the line station that you want to use as the calculation office for this assembly line. After the final assembly line of the assembly orders is closed, the WIP is transferred to the calculation office.

Note
  • If you are working in a different company from the company of the assembly line, this field will be empty and unavailable.
  • In Assembly Control, this line station is used for administrative purposes only.
Assembly Order Horizon

The time period for which LN maintains planning data for an item.

The planning horizon is expressed as a number of working days from the date you carry out the simulation.

Enterprise Planning does not generate supply plans or planned orders that are after the item's planning horizon.

To calculate the planning horizon, Enterprise Planning uses the calendar that you specified for the enterprise unit of the default warehouse to which the plan item belongs.

Note

Enterprise Planning moves the planning horizon to the end of a plan period.

Refresh Horizon

The time taken to refresh assembly orders.

Miscellaneous
