Production Order

The production order that uses the materials.

Order Status

The order status of the production order.

Allowed values

Created

The initial status of a production order. All production order data can still be changed. Materials are not issued yet. Materials can be added or removed, and quantities can be changed.

Modify

The production order may be modified in the same way as with the Created status. If the Version Control check box is selected, this status is assigned to a newly created version of a production order. It is possible to adjust estimates for this production order. The already registered actuals are saved with the new version number on the production order.

Note: You must print the production order documents and release the production order once you have made the necessary changes. Once the new production order is printed, or released the estimated costs are frozen again.
Scheduled

The production order receives this status after being scheduled in Infor SCM Scheduler . This status is only applicable if Infor SCM Scheduler is Active.

Printed

The documents for the production order were printed. If the Printing Production Order Documents Mandatory check box is selected in the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session, the production order cannot be released before the order documents are printed. The Printing Production Order Documents Mandatory check box is not valid for repetitive items, because printing order documents is never mandatory for repetitive items. For a description of the types of order documents, see Contents of order documents.

Note: Once the production order documents are printed, estimates for the order can no longer be adjusted.
Released

If a production order is released for production, materials are issued to the job shop for production, and hours can be posted. You can still perform the following:

  • Adjust planning data
  • Change the estimated materials and estimated operation costs as long as the cost estimates are not frozen.

Production orders can be released in the Release Production Orders (tisfc0204m000) session.

Active

Work on the production order has started. The order status becomes Active when any WIP transaction takes place for the production order. If the production order status is Active, hours are posted and materials are issued. The estimated costs cannot be changed .

Production Completed

The order is reported as completed. When Warehousing finishes the inbound procedure for produced items that must be delivered into inventory, the production receives the Completed status.

Completed

The order is reported as completed and all completed products were delivered into inventory. You can still account hours and issue materials for the production order. You can report an order as completed in these sessions:

  • Report Orders Completed (tisfc0520m000)

    Use this session to report one or more orders, partly or entirely, as completed.
  • Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000)

    Use this session to report the final operation of an order as completed.
  • Report Operations Complete by Order Group (tisfc0205m000)

    Use this session to report orders as completed by order group.
  • Report Production Schedules Completed (tirpt1201m000) and Report Production Orders Completed from Production Schedule (tirpt1502m000)

    Use these sessions to report production orders in production schedules as complete for RPT items.
Closed

The financial results of the production order have been calculated. Before a production order is closed, all materials for the order must have been issued and all hours must have been accounted. Purchase orders for subcontracted operations must have been processed. After an order has been closed, materials can no longer be issued nor can hours be accounted unless the order status is reset. You can close production orders with the Close Production Orders (ticst0201m000) session.

Archived

The production order data was moved to the archive. For more information, refer to Archiving production orders.

Main Item

The item produced in the production order.

Estimated Costs Frozen

If this check box is selected, the estimated materials cannot be changed anymore.

At which specific moment LN freezes the estimated costs depends on the value of the Moment Freezing Estimates field in the Production Order (tisfc0101s000) session.

Quantity Ordered

The order quantity expressed in specified inventory units to be produced. The estimates of materials and hours are based on this quantity.

Backflush Materials

If this check box is selected, the materials for the production order are issued through backflushing.

Serialized items can only be backflushed if in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4600m000) session the Serials in Inventory check box is cleared, and the Register Serial Issue During As Built field is Yes. In all other cases, serialized items cannot be backflushed.

If the serialized item is lot-controlled, the lot from which the items are backflushed is based on the outbound method ( Last In First Out (LIFO), First In First Out (FIFO)) as is defined in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) session.

Operated Item

The main item, or the phantom on which the operation is executed.

If the Operated Item field does not contain the same item as the Main Item field, the operated item is a phantom. In this case, the routing of the phantom is connected to the routing of the main item.

If the operated item is not a phantom, the main item and the operated item are the same.

Position

The position number identifies the estimated material within the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session.

.
Operation

The operation which uses the material.

  • If the production order has operations, you must enter an operation.
  • If the production order has no operations, LN will assume that the material is needed at the start of the production.

Default value

The default for this field is derived from the Bill of Material (tibom1110m000) session.

If backflushing is applied to this material, you cannot change this field if the result would be a change in the quantity to backflush or the backflushed quantity.

Note: If a material is used in multiple operations, you must link the material to the operation where it is used first. You can also enter the material more than once, and specify the quantity for each operation.

Item

The item that is used as a material in production.

Warehouse

The warehouse that issues the material.

Allowed values

You must enter a warehouse of types Normal or Shop Floor.

Default value

The default for this field is the Warehouse field in the Bill of Material (tibom1110m000) session.

Note: If you use a shop-floor warehouse, the items are first transferred from this warehouse to the shop-floor warehouse before they are issued. In this case, the allocation of the material shifts to the shop-floor warehouse when you release or generate the production order (depending on the Move Allocation to Shop Floor Warehouse parameter)

You can check the type in the Warehouse Type field in the Warehouses (tcmcs0503m000) session in Common .

You can no longer change this field:

  • When you have started to issue the material from this warehouse
  • When the estimated costs are frozen
  • When the estimated quantity is not equal to zero
  • When the valuation price in the warehouse is different

Allocation Date

The date and time of a time-phased inventory movement, that is, the date and time on which the material that is allocated to the production order is included in the planned inventory transactions of Warehousing .

BOM Unit

The unit in which the related Net and Scrap quantities are defined.

Net Quantity

net quantity

If you work with serialized items, this field's quantity can be less than expected. For more information, refer to Rework order procedure for serialized items.

Net Quantity in BOM Unit

The net quantity to be specified in BOM unit.

Estimated Quantity

The estimated quantity of material needed based on net quantities specified in the bill of material (BOM), taking in to account the material increases to compensate for loss through scrap and yield.

LN calculates the estimated quantity according to the following formula:

Estimated quantity = (net quantity * (1+ scrap factor/100%) + scrap quantity) * planned quantity factor
  • Net quantity: required material quantity, disregarding scrap and yield
  • Scrap factor: scrap factor defined for the material in the BOM
  • Scrap quantity: scrap quantity defined for the material in the BOM
  • Planned quantity factor: quantity planned input of current operation/quantity planned output of last operation

Revision

The revision of the item.

Allowed values

A revision can only be entered if the item is a revision-controlled engineering item and the Engineering Revisions Active check box in the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session has been selected.

Default value

The default for this field is the current revision.

You must enter a valid revision that has been defined for the item in the Engineering Data Management module.

Note: Once you have started issuing the material, you cannot change this field any longer.

Issue Method
Reported Material

Specify how the material consumption is reported:

Allowed values

  • Backflush

    This is an automatic calculation based on reported quantities.
  • Manual

    Reporting is done by an employee.
Direct Initiate Inventory Issue

If this check box is selected, the warehouse order line for the material is automatically unblocked during production order release. Consequently, you do not need to run the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session to unblock the material.

If this check box is cleared, and if the material is not backflushed, you must use the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session to unblock the material's warehouse order line.

An unblocked warehouse order line serves as a signal for the warehouse employees to begin the warehouse outbound procedure, starting with an outbound advice for the material. The warehouse outbound procedure results in material sent to the job shop. If the Direct Process Warehouse Order Line check box is selected for the material, the warehouse outbound procedure is carried out automatically.

Note: 
  • Floor stock must always be issued with the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session.
  • This check box does not affect material issue to subcontractor. It is recommended to keep this check box selected, so no data is lost if you chose not to subcontract the operation in the future.
  • Materials supplied to a subcontractor cannot have inventory issue directly initiated during the release of the order.

Direct Process Warehouse Order Line

If this check box is selected, the warehouse outbound procedure is carried out automatically after that materials in the warehouse are unblocked.

If this check box is cleared, and you unblock warehouse order lines using the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session, the quantity to issue is added to the To Issue by Warehousing field in the Material to Issue for Production Orders (ticst0101m100) details session. You must carry out the rest of the warehousing procedure manually.

If you use the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session, warehouse order lines for the materials to issue are unblocked. You can also select the Direct Initiate Inventory Issue check box for the materials. In that case, warehouse order lines are automatically unblocked during production order release.

Reference Designators Present

If this check box is selected, one or more reference designators are present in the Reference Designators by Estimated Material (ticst0106m000) session.

You cannot modify this check box.

To view or maintain reference designators, click Reference Designators by Estimated Material.

Alternatives Present

If this check box is selected, one or more alternative materials are present in the Alternative Estimated Materials (ticst0150m000) session.

You cannot modify this check box.

To view or maintain alternative materials, click Alternative Estimated Materials.

Allow Multiple Items

If this check box is selected, LN can distribute the estimated quantity of the estimated material over multiple items. For example, the net quantity can be divided over the use-up material and the standard material or over the standard material and one or more alternative materials. If this check box is cleared, LN issues only a single item for this BOM line for one production order.

For examples, refer to Searching for alternative materials.

Alternative for Position

If this field is filled, this line contains an alternative material that can completely or partially replace the material with the position number that this field displays.

The position number is displayed in the Position field in this session.

Lot Selection

If the item is lot controlled, you can select how the material must be issued.

Note: 
  • The Lot Controlled check box in the Items (tcibd0501m000) session must be selected for the item.
  • If the Lot Controlled check box is cleared, the Lot Selection field displays Any and is disabled.

Lot Code

Material Control Method

The method that determines which materials from the BOM must be printed in the order document, and/or which BOM materials must be allocated. Examples of order documents are material lists, material issue notes, production order check lists, sawing lists, cutting lists, collective sawing lists, collective cutting lists.

The value of this field depends on the Print on Order Document check box in the Bill of Material (tibom1110m000) session, and the Floor Stock check box in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4600m000) session. The following table gives the default combinations and the resulting material control method.

Print on Order Document Floor Stock Material Control Method value
No Yes No material line created
No No Allocate Only
Yes No Print and Allocate
Yes Yes Print Only
Note: You can only change this field when you manually add a (floor stock) material while the production order status is Created.
Inspection Order Status (QMS)

The status given by an inspection.

Supplied by Subcontractor

If you subcontract one or more operations, or an item's entire production process, you can choose whether or not to send material to the subcontractor to use for the subcontracted item.

If this check box is selected, the material is not sent to the subcontractor. The material is supplied by the subcontractor.

If this check box is cleared, and the material is linked to a subcontracted operation, the material is sent to the subcontractor.

Subassembly

If this check box is selected, the item is a subassembly.

Ownership

View the owner of the materials to be used in the order.

Note: If the order contains customer furnished materials ownership of the item or subassembly will be set to Customer Owned.
Customer Furnished Material

If this check box is selected, the material is a customer furnished material.

Note: Only visible when the Customer Furnished Materials parameter are selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.

Contains Customer Furnished Material

If this check box is selected, the production order contains customer furnished material.

Rework Item

If this check box is selected, the selected item is reworked.

Item Text

If this check box is selected, additional text associated with the end item is present.

Material Text

If this check box is selected, additional text associated with the bill of material (BOM) lines is present.

General
General
Quantity Planned Input

The quantity planned input is the basis for the calculation of the estimated materials. It includes the quantity reported complete and rejects.

WMS Controlled

If this check box is selected, you defined in the Warehouses (tcmcs0503m000) session that an integration with a Warehouse Management System (WMS) exists. The value of the Lot Selection field in this session must be the same as in the used WMS.

.
.
To Issue

The allocations in the warehouse, that is, the blocked quantities in the warehouse order lines.

Serialized items

In case of a serialized item for which the Serials in Inventory check box in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4600m000) session is selected, LN by default puts the quantity to be issued in the Subsequent Delivery field. However, you can also anonymously issue a quantity of serialized items. This means that in Warehousing , the items' serial numbers are determined, such as by scanning a bar code. To do so, type the quantity to be issued in this field, and run the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session.

If there is still a quantity of serialized items left in the Subsequent Delivery field, LN issues those items based on the serial numbers entered in the Serial End Item - As-Built Components (timfc0111m000) session.

Subsequent Delivery

The quantity in this field can relate to the following concepts:

Backflushing

If you use backflushing, the quantity to be backflushed is displayed in this field. This quantity is not taken into account when you run the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session. In Warehousing , the quantity is expressed as a blocked quantity in a warehouse order line.

Manual issuing

If the Manual Issuing check box in the Production Order Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session is selected, the planned allocated quantity is displayed in this field. To issue, enter the required quantity in the To Issue field. For more information, refer to Material issue setup.

Serialized items

If the item is a serialized item for which the Serials in Inventory check box in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4600m000) session is selected, this field displays the quantity of the serialized item that must be issued.

If you run the Initiate Inventory Issue (tisfc0207m000) session, LN issues the quantity in this field based on the serial numbers entered in the Serial End Item - As-Built Components (timfc0111m000) session. Only the items for which you entered a serial number are issued; the rest of the item quantity stays in the Subsequent Delivery field. For example, if the quantity in the Subsequent Delivery field is 10, and for three items a serial numbers is available in the Serial End Item - As-Built Components (timfc0111m000) session, only these three items are issued. The quantity in the Subsequent Delivery field becomes 10 - 3 = 7.

LN puts the serialized item quantity in the Subsequent Delivery field for the purpose of issuing the items according to the serial numbers specified in the Serial End Item - As-Built Components (timfc0111m000) session. To issue serialized items anonymously, enter that quantity in the To Issue field. For more information, refer to the To Issue field help.

In case of a rework order, where a material line contains a serialized item that must be reworked, the end item with the correct serial number must be issued. The serial number is registered in the Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000) session. For more information, refer to Rework order procedure for serialized items

Note: 

You cannot access this field in the following cases:

  • When the operation is blocked for issue.
  • When backflushing is used for the material; if so, the quantity in this field is the quantity to be backflushed.

Percentage Required

The percentage of raw material that must be available before the operation can be started.
