Job Shop Routing

To be able to define a routing, these must already be defined:

1. Define reference operations

   Prerequisite:

   • The work centers for site are defined in the Sites (tcemm0150m000) and the Work Centers (tirou0101m000) session.

     For more information, refer to Activating sites and Defining entities for sites.

   • Machine type (s) is defined in the Machine Types (tirou4160m000) session.

   • The Machine capacity group(s) is defined in the Machine Capacity Groups (tirou4161m000) session.

2. Link skills and tools.

   Prerequisite:

   • Skills are defined in the Skills (tcppl0110m000) session.
   • Tools defined in the Tools (titrp0101m000) session.

3. Link process variables

   Prerequisite:

   • Process variable defined in the Process Variables (tirou0105m000) session.

To define a routing for a product:

1. Use the Job Shop Routing (tirou4600m000) session to generate a new routing revision.

   The revision is assigned the status New on generation.

2. Specify the site to which the routing will apply in the Site field.

3. Specify the product for which the routing will be used in the Product field.

   Once the product is selected, the routing ID number and revision will automatically be generated. If a previous routing for this product and site combination exists, the revision number will be upped by one.

   The new routing revision automatically receives the status New.

4. Edit the routing header as necessary.

5. Add operations to the routing

   Note: Prerequisite to adding operations that reference operations have been defined int he Reference Operations (tirou4150m000) session.

6. Once all operations are added use the Validate command to check for consistency.

7. After validation use the Approve Revision command to change the revision status to Approved.
