Backflushing of hours

These parameters have been added to the Repetitive Manufacturing Parameters (tirpt0100m000) session:

• Automatic Labor Hours
• Automatic Work Cell Hours

If the Automatic Work Cell Hours parameter is selected, these options for booking hours are available:

• Register Work Cell Hours: The hours are taken from the clocked hours by user.
• Backflushing Hours: The hours are taken from the theoretical hours.
• MES: This option is available for further development and will be used to pull the data from an external source.

There is now a better flow of RPT hours initialization, accounting (booking), and approval with the aim of making the reporting process automatic and more streamlined.

Backflushing of material and hours for a line station

Previously, when a line station order was reported complete in the Line Station - Assembly Orders (tiasl6510m000) session, the material requirements and hours budgeted for that order could be backflushed only manually in the Backflush Requirements (tiasc7241m000) session.

Now, the Trigger Automatic Backflushing check box has been added to the Stations (tiasl1545m000) session. If this check box is selected and a line station order is reported complete, the order's budgeted material requirements and hours are backflushed automatically for the applicable station and the preceding connected stations.
