Sequence shipping schedules

Sequence shipping schedules are pull call-off schedules that are generated from Assembly Control through the order-controlled/SILS supply system.

To update a sequence shipping schedule line, the assembly order that generated the sequence shipping schedule line must be changed.

To create sequence shipping schedule lines

If Assembly Control calls off goods via the SILS supply system, LN performs the following steps:

  1. In Assembly Control, a reference number/ID is generated, which represents a combination of VIN, Line Station, and Assembly Kit.
  2. If a call-off is made, a schedule line for every item is generated in the Purchase Schedule Lines (tdpur3111m000) session and the generated reference ID is inserted in the Reference ID field.
  3. For every schedule line, sequence shipping data is inserted in the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session.
  4. For every sequence shipping schedule line, a record is inserted in the Purchase Release Lines - Sequence Shipping Data (tdpur3523m000) session.

To update sequence shipping schedule lines

To update a sequence shipping schedule line, the assembly order that generated the sequence shipping schedule line must be changed.

Updates are of two types:

  • Non-unique fields

    Updates are made to fields that are not unique.

    In the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session, these are updates to the fields, such as:

    • Job Sequence
    • Quantity
    • Requirement Date
    • Option List ID

  • Unique fields

    Updates are made to unique fields. These are updates to other fields in the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session, such as Assembly Kit, VIN, Line Station, and so on.

The action LN takes does not only depend on the kind of field that must be updated, but also on whether or not the sequence shipping schedule line is already sent in a purchase release.

Note: In the Sent field of the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session, you can view if the sequence shipping schedule line was already sent in a purchase release.

To update not yet sent sequence shipping lines

  • If Assembly Control changes any field on a sequence shipping line, the applicable field is simply updated in the Purchase Schedule Lines (tdpur3111m000) session, the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session, and the Purchase Release Lines - Sequence Shipping Data (tdpur3523m000) session. The status of the schedule line remains Order Generated in the Purchase Schedule Lines (tdpur3111m000) session and Created in the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session/ Purchase Release Lines - Sequence Shipping Data (tdpur3523m000) session.
  • If Assembly Control wants to delete a requirement, the applicable sequence shipping schedule line in the Purchase Schedule Lines (tdpur3111m000) session and the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session receive the status Canceled. The line is simply removed from the Purchase Release Lines - Sequence Shipping Data (tdpur3523m000) session.

To update a unique field on a sequence shipping line that is already sent in a purchase release

If an update is made to a unique field, LN performs the following steps:

  1. The old sequence shipping schedule line in the Purchase Schedule Lines (tdpur3111m000) session receives the status Canceled.
  2. The corresponding record in the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session keeps the status Created, but another record is inserted with the status Canceled. The value of the canceled sequence shipping schedule line's Revision field is incremented, because the line status changes from Created to Canceled.
  3. The canceled sequence shipping line from the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session is inserted in the Purchase Release Lines - Sequence Shipping Data (tdpur3523m000) session under a new Release Revision. The reason for this is that the cancellation must also be communicated to the supplier by means of a (new) purchase release.
  4. A new sequence shipping schedule line is created with the status Order Generated in the Purchase Schedule Lines (tdpur3111m000) session and the status Created in the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session/ Purchase Release Lines - Sequence Shipping Data (tdpur3523m000) session.

To update a non-unique field on a sequence shipping line that is already sent in a purchase release

If an update is made to a field which is not unique, LN takes the following steps:

  1. The old sequence shipping schedule line in the Purchase Schedule Lines (tdpur3111m000) session is simply updated and keeps the Order Generated status.
  2. The applicable sequence shipping schedule line in the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session keeps the Created status, but another record is inserted with the Modified status. The value of the modified sequence shipping schedule line's Revision field is incremented, because the line status changes from Created to Modified.
  3. The modified sequence shipping line from the Sequence Shipping data (tdpur3517m000) session is inserted in the Purchase Release Lines - Sequence Shipping Data (tdpur3523m000) session under a new Release Revision. The reason for this is that the modification must also be communicated to the supplier by means of a (new) purchase release.

Example 2 - To update sequence shipping schedule lines

The Assembly Control module sends the following updates:

  • VIN001 on JS001 is replaced by VIN004 on JS001.
  • For VIN003, the quantity of ITEM2 is increased from 4 to 6.
  • All requirements from Example 1 are already sent in a purchase release.

As a result, the following changes are made in the Purchase Schedule Lines (tdpur3111m000) session:

Canceled
