Item - Production (tiipd0601m100)

Use this session to specify item production data.

Field Information

Item

The item for which production data is defined.

Inventory Unit

The unit of measure in which the inventory of the item is recorded.

Customized

If this check box is selected, he item is customized.

Standard To Order

If this check box is selected, the item is created based on the Standard-to-Order generation method, as specified in the Generation Method field of the Generate (Project PCS) Structure for Sales Orders (tdsls4244m000) session. The bill of material and the routing are derived from the original item.

Derived-from Item

The item from which the item, in the Item field, is derived.

Note: If a standard item is copied to a customized item using the Copy Standard Product Structure to Customized Structure (tipcs2230m000) session, LN displays the standard item code in the customized item's Derived from Item field.
Job Shop Site

If the Job Shop by Site parameter in the Concept Activation (tcemm4600m000) session is set to Active, this is the site for generic bills of material and routings (and the manufacture of generic, non-assembly items only).

If the Job Shop by Site parameter in the Concept Activation (tcemm4600m000) session is set to Inactive, the specified site is also used for products with this site specified in the bill of material and routing.

Note: This field is applicable only if the Configurations by Site field is other than Active in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
BOM Quantity

BOM quantity

You must determine the BOM quantity in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.

The BOM quantity enables you to specify very small item quantities as bill of material components. You might want to do this, for example, if you are creating a bill of material for a chemical dilution.

Example

You want to make a millionth part salt dilution. If the dilution's inventory unit is liters, you can specify a BOM for one liter, and a component item of one milligram of salt. However, one milligram could be too small to be measured accurately. It is more practical to specify a bill of material for a BOM quantity of 1000 liters, so the component item will be one gram of salt.

Routing Quantity

The quantity of the item based on which the routing is planned. You can use this unit to include short operation times in the routing of an item.

Subcontracting with Material Flow

If this check box is selected, subcontracting with material flow is supported for production orders which have this item as the end item.

  • If the Job Shop by Site parameter in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session is cleared, this check box is default for the Subcontracting with Material Flow check box in the Production Order (tisfc0101s000) session header.
  • If the Job Shop by Site parameter in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session is checked, this check box is default for the Subcontracting with Material Flow check box in the Job Shop Routings (tirou4100m000) session header, which is created when the product structure is generated for a product variant.
Order Lead Time
The order lead time applicable for the item.
Note: This field is displayed and enabled only if the Job Shop by Site field is other than Active in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
Order Lead Time Unit

order lead time

The order lead time is determined when you click Update Order Lead Time in this session.

Select Hours or Days as the time unit in which you want to express the order lead time.

Note: This field is applicable only if the Configurations by Site field is other than Active in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
Outbound Inspection

If this check box is selected, material is inspected when issued from a warehouse.

Critical for Inventory

This check box is the default value for the Critical for Inventory check box in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.

Phantom

If this check box is selected, the component item is defined as a phantom in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session. You can use phantom items to record technical information about the product structure or to carry out standard cost calculations.

Note: 
  • If the component item is a phantom, you cannot define alternative materials.
  • If the Main Item is a phantom, a check mark is displayed on the header and derived from the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.
  • If the Item is a phantom, the check box on the BOM line is selected.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Phantoms.

Scrap Percentage

Recording a scrap factor prevents shortages in production. The scrap factor is expressed as a percentage loss.

A scrap factor of 5% means that LN will allocate 5% more of a component for a production order (gross material requirement).

Scrap is an extra loss in addition to the loss caused by the yield being less than 100%.

If you generate the BOM from an engineering BOM, the scrap factor and scrap quantity values will also be copied. However, these values will only be copied if the sequence number is the only thing changed, for example, wheel 10/1 to wheel 10/2. If there is a new item on the BOM line, for example, wheel to spare wheel, the scrap data will not be copied. In this case, the scrap quantity and scrap factor will be zero (0).

Scrap Quantity

scrap

The quantity of material that will be lost during production. The quantity is a fixed quantity that is independent to the quantity produced. Recording a scrap quantity prevents shortages in production.

Scrap is an extra loss in addition to the loss caused by the yield being less than 100%.

If you generate the BOM from an engineering BOM, the scrap factor and scrap quantity values will also be copied. However, these values will only be copied if the sequence number is the only thing changed, for example, wheel 10/1 to wheel 10/2.

If a new item exist on the BOM line, for example, wheel to spare wheel, the scrap data will not be copied, In this case scrap quantity and scrap factor will be 0.

Conformance Reporting

The conformance reporting code.

Receipt Inspection

If this check box is selected, and the item produced is the end item, an inspection must be performed when the item is received in the warehouse.

Item Production Text

If this check box is selected, item production text is present.
