Production Planning Details (tisfc0110m100)

Use this session to manage a production order. You can carry out a number of tasks in this session that relate to the material side and to the operations side of a production order.

Field Information

Overview
Production Order

production order

Order Status

production order status

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.

Planning Method

If the Planning Method field is Forward, the delivery date is planned forward based on the Production Start field.

If the Planning Method field is Backward, the production start date is planned backward based on the Planned Delivery field.

You can only alter this field for:

  • Manually-entered orders
  • Orders transferred from the Warehousing package.
Item

The item that is produced by the production order.

The item must have been defined in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session, and costing data must have been defined for the item in the Item - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session. The item must be one of the following types:

  • Manufactured
  • Purchased
  • Product
  • Generic if item can be standard, or customized.
Operation

The operation for which operation the material of the BOM line is issued to the job shop.

  • If you enter zero (0), you can use the BOM Line - Material-Routing Relationships (tibom0140m000) session to determine on which operation the material is issued.
  • If you enter a value other than zero (0), for example, 10, the material is issued at operation 10. This operation applies to all routings that are defined for the manufactured item. If the operation does not exist for the manufactured item's routing(s), the BOM line material is issued at the first operation of the routing.
Note: To avoid entering the code of a nonexistent operation, you are advised use the zoom function for this field and select an operation from the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Material for multiple operations.

Operation Status

operation status

Allowed values

Planned

The status when the plan is created.

Ready to Start

When there is enough Quantity Completed on all the previous operations to report complete the minimum order quantity of the operation in the Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000) session, the operation status is set to Ready to Start by the previous operation.

Started

If you use LN the operation status is Started when any quantity is reported as completed in Job Shop Control .

Active

A WIP transaction has been performed on this operation. When the first operation is set to Active, the order status becomes Active too.

Blocked

The operation has been blocked in Job Shop Control by the user or by an inspection order. Refer to Blocking operations.

Completed

All the work has been completed for the operation. The quantities reported as completed and rejected are final. You can set this status in the Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000) details session. If required, you can click Reset Operation Status in the Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000) details session to change the operation status from Completed back to Active.

Closed

The financial results of the operation have been calculated. Operations can only be closed in LN.

Start Operation

If this check box is selected, there are no operations before this operation.

Blocking Reason

If the operation has been blocked, the reason for blocking.

Operated Item

The item produced in the production order.

Planning Related
Next Operation

The operation after the current operation. If this field is 0 (zero), this operation is the end operation.

Subcontracting

If this check box is selected, the operation is subcontracted.

Task

The task that is performed in the operation.

If anything is reported on the operation, you cannot change the task anymore.

Reference Operation

reference operation

Machine

The machine on which the operation is performed.

Default value

The default for this field is the Machine field in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session.

This field is irrelevant in the case of a non-machine task.

You can modify this field. If, for example, the machine is overloaded or must be repaired, it may be necessary to move the operation to another machine.

Machine Type

The type of machine on which the reference operation is performed.

Start Date
Production Start Date and Time

The date and time on which the order is planned to be taken into production. The Production Start field is filled during production order creation. If the production planning changes, this date can be automatically updated.

The start date of the order can be copied from the planned orders generated in the modules:

  • Warehouse Orders
  • Inventory Planning
  • Order Planning

Forward planning If the planning method field has the value Forward, the production start date can be used to calculate the delivery date.

Backward planning If the planning method field has the value Backward, the production start date can be derived from the delivery date and the order lead time of the item. The production start date is then calculated as follows: Production start date = delivery date - order lead time of item This formula is used in the following situations:

  • When you manually enter a production order
  • When you click the Plan button to recalculate the production start date
  • When a production order for an item of type Manufactured or Product has no routing and is transferred to the Job Shop Control module.
Transport Date To

The date on which the item is transferred from the sending warehouse of the previous operation.

Note: This field is relevant in case of operation subcontracting with material flow support.

Queue

The start date and time of the operation's queue time. You defined the duration of the queue in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session.

Click the Automated Queue Time Compression option on the appropriate menu of the Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) session to start the session which you can use to reduce the planned queue time.

Setup

The date and time on which LN plans to start the production time.

If you alter the date and/or time of the Remainder Start Date field, LN recalculates the value of the Setup Start Date field.

The start date of the operation is copied from planned production orders, which are generated in Enterprise Planning , when the orders are transferred from Enterprise Planning to Job Shop Control .

If the production order is transferred from the session in Production Order Advice (whina3100m000) in Warehousing , LN copies the start date of the operation from that session.

When you manually enter an order in the Production Order (tisfc0101s000) session, LN calculates the value of the Setup Start Date field using the lead-time elements of the operation that you specified in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session.

Run

The date and time production was started on the specified order.

Remaining Time

The remaining production lead time required to finish the operation.

Wait

The date and time on which the setup and run time of the operation are planned to finish, and the wait time is planned to start. for the production order.

Note: The wait start date is calculated in the Shop Floor Control (SFC) module.
Move

The date and time on which the wait time is planned to finish, and the move time is planned to start.

Transport From

Date on which the item is transferred from the receiving warehouse, that is, the warehouse of the subcontracting work center.

This field is relevant in case of operation subcontracting with material flow support.

Transport To (Next Oper.)

Date on which the item is transferred from the sending warehouse of the current operation.

This field is relevant in case of operation subcontracting with material flow support.

Queue (Next Operation)

The date and time on which the move time of the operation is planned to end, and the queue time of the next operation is planned to start.

Setup (Next Operation)

If this operation is followed by other operations, this field displays the Setup (Next Oper.) field. If this operation is the last operation, this field displays the Requested Delivery Date field.

These fields are defined as follows

  • Setup (Next Oper.)

    The date and time on which the queue time of the next operation is planned to finish, and the setup and run time of the next operation is planned to start.

    If you selected the Use Transfer Batch check box, and defined a batch quantity in the Transfer Batch Qty field for the first operation, the next operation can start before the first operation finished. In this case, the date and time in the Setup (Next Oper.) field of the first operation is equal to time and date in the Queue Start(Next Operation) field.

  • Requested Delivery Date

    The date that the customer has requested the production order.

    If a production order, originating from a sales order, is transferred from Enterprise Planning , the requested delivery date equals the sales order delivery date minus the warehouse inbound, warehouse outbound, safety time and extra lead time. These four lead times cause a difference between the sales order delivery date and the planned delivery date.

    For more information, see To determine on order dates.

Fixed Planning Dates

If this check box is selected, LN uses fixed planning dates, and the operation cannot be shifted due to changes in other operations.

Select the Shift Planning option on the appropriate menu to start the Shift Production Planning (tisfc1202m000) session, which you can use to plan the operation to another date.

Fixed Duration

If this check box is selected, the operation has a fixed duration, and its production time does not depend on the batch size.

If an operation has a fixed duration, LN applies the following formula to calculate the run time:

run time = cycle time / routing quantity

If this check box is cleared, the formula that LN uses to calculate the run time is as follows:

run time = (cycle time * quantity planned input) / routing quantity
Use Transfer Batch

transfer batch quantity

If this check box is selected, you can start the next operation before the complete production batch is finished. You must enter a value in the Transfer Batch Quantity field, which indicates when the next operation can be started. If this check box is cleared, the next operation starts when the complete production batch is finished.

If the Transfer Batch Method field in the Job Shop Master Data Parameters (tirou0100m000) session is Quantity, you must type a quantity in the Transfer Batch Quantity field. If the Transfer Batch Method field is Percentage, you must type a percentage.

Transfer Batch Quantity

transfer batch quantity

Note: If the first operation of the routing is subcontracted, this field is zero, because in that case no subassembly is transported from the manufacturer to the subcontractor.

Queue Time

The queue time of the operation as you defined it in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session.

Click the Automated Queue Time Compression option on the appropriate menu of the Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) session to start the session which you can use to reduce the planned queue time.

Fixed Setup Time (SCS)

The sequence independent time required to set up or change over a machine in order to start running the machine.

The fixed setup time is only used when Infor SCM Scheduler and Infor SCM Planner are installed.

Average Setup Time

The average setup time of the operation.

Note: 

If Labor Resources for Setup (FTE) = 0 and Average Setup Time > 0, the following applies:

  • The machine hours' required capacity calculated for the order operation is not impacted and includes setup time.
  • The setup time is not included in the man hours' required capacity for the order operation and the required man hours for the work center. This affects the man hours displayed on the work center utilization reports and the resource order plan.
  • The setup time is not included in the estimated man hours and is not included in the calculation of operation costs for man capacity work centers.
  • The setup time is used in calculating operation schedules.
Process Time

The time needed to manufacture the specified item.

Production Rate

The production rate of the number of products produced per unit of time.

You can use a different production rate for different orders.

  • If you change the value of this field, LN changes the value of production time. That means that you can use this field as an alternative way of entering the operation production time.
  • If you click the Calculate Production Rate option on the appropriate menu, LN calculates the production rate, using the cycle time of the operation. This is only possible if the Use Production Rates check box in the Job Shop Master Data Parameters (tirou0100m000) session is selected.
Note: Whether the production rate is expressed in hours or minutes is shown in the next field. You can alter that in the Production Rate Time Unit field in the Job Shop Master Data Parameters (tirou0100m000) session.
/

The unit of time in which the production rate is expressed.

Routing Unit

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.

The wait time of the selected production order between operations.

Move Time

The move time of the selected production order between operations.

Transport Time From

Lead time of transport of the subassembly from the warehouse at the subcontractor to the receiving warehouse. In the manufacturer's system, the warehouse at the subcontractor is defined as an external warehouse.

This field is relevant in case of operation subcontracting with material flow support.

Default value

The default value is calculated in Freight based on the addresses of the warehouses and work centers.
