Work Order Activity (tswcs2610m000)

Use this session to view, maintain and create a work order activity. A work order activity can be based on the reference activities that are defined in the Activity Management module. If you do not use reference activities, you can identify the work order activity with a description. For more information on the satellite and the MMT sessions, refer to:

  • To Display satellite sessions for ease-of-use
  • To view the satellite sessions in the MMT sessions of Work Control System module

Integration with Infor LN Quality

LN allows you to create non-conformance reports for service objects, using the Create Non-Conformance Report option on the Action menu. The Non-Conformance Reports (qmncm1100m000) session is invoked, wherein you can create the report for the service object.

LN allows you to link non-conformance reports for service objects, using the Link Non-Conformance Report option on the Action menu. The Non-Conformance Reports (qmncm1100m000) session is invoked, wherein you can select the report to be linked to the service object.

You can use the Unlink Non-Conformance Report option on the Action menu to unlink the Non-Conformance report. The Related Orders - Quality Management (tsmdm4500m100) session is invoked, wherein you can select the report to be unlinked.

Note: 
  • These non-conformance report options are visible only if the Non-Conformance Reports check box is selected in the General Service Parameters (tsmdm0100m000) session.
  • The Create Non-Conformance Report option is enabled only if the Item is specified for the service object.
  • You cannot delete a work order activity with Activity Status field set to Free or Planned if:
    • The work order is external (work order linked to a part maintenance line).
    • The Allow to Delete Estimates field is set to No in the Maintenance Sales Control Parameters (tsmsc0100m000) session.
    • The work order is linked to a maintenance sales order activity line that is created for a part line with the Line Status set to Free.
