JSC - line side labeling and scan to book for non-referenced schedules

Line side labeling is the process of printing the final shipping labels already during production. This process is typically implemented for these reasons:
  • To avoid relabeling at the time of shipment. This saves costs and time. Additionally, full traceability of a handling unit through the complete process is provided.
  • To report production orders complete through the Scan to Book process. A new Factory Track transaction is available to support this Scan to Book process. With this transaction, an operator can report quantities complete for a production order by scanning the handling unit ID from a label that is attached to a container.
  • To reduce mislabeling, by attaching container labels during production or receipt rather than at the shipping dock.

These enhancements have been made for the Line Side Labeling functionality:

  • The demand pegging type Order Based is now supported. Consequently, information from the sales schedule can be printed on the label.
  • Final shipping labels can now be printed and reprinted anytime after the production orders (job shop orders) have been released.
