Job Shop Routing
To support multi-site production, routings are now linked to product per site.
Note: If multisite is implemented, you must be authorized to define and maintain routings for the selected site.
Routing Master Data
To be able to define a routing, these must already be defined:
-
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.
-
-
Link skills and tools.
Prerequisite:
- Skills are defined in the Skills (tcppl0110m000) session.
- Tools defined in the Tools (titrp0101m000) session.
-
Link process variables
Prerequisite:
- Process variable defined in the Process Variables (tirou0105m000) session.
New Routing
To define a routing for a product:
-
Use the Job Shop Routing (tirou4600m000) session to generate a new routing revision.
The revision is assigned the status New on generation.
- Specify the site to which the routing will apply in the Site field.
-
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.
-
Edit the routing header as necessary.
-
Add operations to the routing
Note: Prerequisite to adding operations that reference operations have been defined int he Reference Operations (tirou4150m000) session.
-
Once all operations are added use the
command to check for consistency. -
After validation use the Approved.
command to change the revision status to
Standard Routing by Site
A standard routing is a routing that can be coupled to multiple products. Using a standard routing can reduce maintenance.
Use the Standard Job Shop Routings (tirou4100m100)or Standard Job Shop Routing (tirou4600m100) sessions to define standard routings that can be used either globally or for a specific site.
When you have a standard routing defined, you can define a job shop routing in the Job Shop Routings (tirou4100m000) orJob Shop Routing (tirou4600m000) sessions for a specific item.
Later on, you can link the standard routing to one or multiple items in the Item - Routings (tirou1101m000) session by selecting a manufactured item and site when you record a new item routing code. First, select the Standard checkbox in the Item - Routings (tirou1101m000) details session. Next, select a standard routing to which the new routing can be linked. The operation data is adopted from the standard routing during the input of a production order.
