An item that occurs in any module of Manufacturing. It is a purchased, manufactured, or generic item that is used in a generic/production bill of material or in a generic/production routing.
Operation/Operation Step - Tools (tirou1110m000)Use this session to link tools directly to an operation, or to an operation step of a microrouting. Note You can define tools in the Tools Requirement Planning module, a module that is used to control, track, and plan tools. To link tools to an operation If the sequence in which the tools are presented on the production order documents is not important, you can link tools directly to an operation. To link tools to an operation, select a record in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session and on the appropriate menu, click Tools. As a result, the Operation/Operation Step - Tools (tirou1110m000) session starts, in which you can link one or more tools to an operation. These tools are presented directly below the operation number on production order documents. To link tools to an operation step Tools information linked to operation steps can indicate, for example, which tools are required to carry out a specific operation. To add several tools to a specific operation in a specified order, you must link a tool to an operation step. After you defined operation steps for the operation in the Operation Steps (tirou1105m000) session, you can link one or more tools to each operation step. Select an operation step in the Operation Steps (tirou1105m000) session for the correct item/routing/operation combination, and on the appropriate menu, click Tools. As a result, the Operation/Operation Step - Tools (tirou1110m000) session starts, in which you can link one or more tools to an operation step. Note You can either link tools to a specific production order's operation or to operation steps. However, you cannot link tools to both an operation and operation steps, because planning of tools can only be performed on one level. Default value If the current session is started for an operation that makes use of a task relationship to which tools are linked in the Task Relationship - Tools (tirou0115m000) session, the tools from the Task Relationship - Tools (tirou0115m000) session are defaulted to the current session. When operation steps are added, these defaults are removed again. You can list and define the tools that are required for an actual production order's operation in the Estimated Tool Requirements (titrp0111m000) session. Based on the data in the current session, tools information is defaulted to the Estimated Tool Requirements (titrp0111m000) session on operation level, or on operation step level. However, in the Estimated Tool Requirements (titrp0111m000) session, you can link additional tools to an operation, or to an operation step of an actual production order in the following ways:
Note If you add additional tools to the production order by means of the Operation/Operation Step - Tools (tirou1110m000) session, the inserted tools are defaulted to future production orders that make use of the relevant operation or the relevant operation step.
Manufactured Item An item that occurs in any module of Manufacturing. It is a purchased, manufactured, or generic item that is used in a generic/production bill of material or in a generic/production routing. Routing The sequence of operations required to manufacture an item. For each operation, the task, machine, and work center are specified, as well as information about setup time and cycle time. Operation One of a series of steps in a routing that are carried out successively to produce an item. The following data is collected during a routing operation:
This data is used to compute order lead times, to plan production orders and to calculate standard cost. / The sequence number of the operation. This number is based on the effective/expiry dates, and is used to distinguish between operations. The effectivity and expiry date for operations are used in:
Sequence Number The number that identifies a data record or a step in a sequence of activities. Sequence numbers are used in many contexts. Usually LN generates the sequence number for the next item or step. Depending on the context, you can overwrite this number. Tool Kit A set of specific tools required to perform a single task. A tool kit can be linked to a machine, a task, and/or a routing operation to specify the tool(s) required to perform the task and/or operation. Tool The tool type is the first level that is used to identify the tool in the coding system for tools. Some examples of tool types are:
Hammer 1, screwdriver 2 and wheelbarrow 3 are examples of tool types in combination with a tool serial number, and represent unique tools. Tool Number A number to identify a tool. The combination of a tool type, for example, hammer, and a tool serial number, for example, 1, results in a unique identification of a tool in LN. Number of Needed Usages The number of times the tool can be used for a particular operation. Routing Unit The quantity of the manufactured item on which the routing is based. A routing quantity enables you to include very short operation times in the routing of an item. Example
In a 60 minute time span, 100 items are produced. Consequently, the operation time of one item is 0.6 minute. Routing The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter. The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock. Operation Step A suboperation connected to a routing operation. An operation step can contain information such as, instructions, process information, and tools information. Use in TRP Planning If this check box is selected, the tool is used for planning purposes as well as printed on the production order documents for instruction purposes. If this check box is cleared, the tool is only printed by operation on the production order documents, and not used for tool planning purposes. Task An activity to manufacture or repair an item. For example, sawing, drilling, or painting. A task is carried out on a work center, and can be related to a machine. Machine The machine on which the operation is performed. Work Center The default work center where the task is carried out.
Explode Tool Kit Explodes the tool kit. If the tool kit contains tools and the tool kit is exploded, the tools linked to the tool kit are inserted in the Operation/Operation Step - Tools (tirou1110m000) session and the tool kit is deleted. If the tool kit does not contain any tools, the tool kit is not deleted from the Operation/Operation Step - Tools (tirou1110m000) session. Machine - Tools Starts the Machine - Tools (tirou0110m000) session.
