Adding production feedback

Use this procedure to enter the actual finished good quantity produced, actual components used, and actual burden costs.

Note: You cannot perform production feedback if the work order has an offsite hold code.

See Production feedback for more details.

Add production feedback

  1. Access Production Feedback (WO40.1).

    When you begin production feedback, certain quantities default to this form when you select the Add form action:

    • Component planned quantities default to the Actual Qty field.

    • Estimated burden costs default to the actual burden fields.

    • Estimated byproduct quantities default to the Actual Quantity field on Byproduct Production Feedback (WO42.1).

  2. Select the Add form action, select the Finished Good tab, and type the finished good and shrinkage quantity produced by the work order. The finished good quantity is the actual quantity of the finished good that is produced by this work order. You must enter the finished good quantity before production feedback can begin.

    The shrinkage quantity is the amount of shrinkage that occurs when the total actual quantity of all components used is less than the actual quantity of the finished goods produced (when all components and the finished good are in the same unit of measure).

    Note: If you try entering a finished good quantity that is less than the planned quantity, a message displays on Split Work Order (WO40.7) prompting you to indicate whether you want to split the work order. The default value is Y (Yes).
  3. Select the Change form action and select from these tabs.
    Select this tab To
    Finished Good Select Byproduct to access Byproduct Production Feedback (WO42.1). Type the actual byproduct quantities.
    Components Type the actual component quantities used.
    Burdens Type the actual burden costs.
    User Fields Type user-defined fields.
  4. Optional. If the finished good is tracked by bin, lot, serial number, or multiple unit of measure, the appropriate option appears on the Finished Goods tab. Choose the option to transfer to the appropriate form. Type the actual quantity of finished goods.
    For Use
    Tracking finished goods by bin Finished Good Bin Feedback (WO40.2)
    Tracking finished goods by lot Finished Good Lot Feedback (WO40.3)
    Tracking finished goods by serial number Finished Good Serial Feedback (WO40.4)
    Tracking finished goods by unit of measure Finished Good UOM Feedback (WO40.5)
    Tracking finished goods by serial number and cross referenced to component serial numbers Finished Good Component Serial Cross Reference (WO40.6)
  5. Optional. If the finished good is serial-tracked and any serial-tracked components exist, you can cross-reference the component serial numbers to the finished good serial number.
    • Select Ser Xref to transfer to Finished Good - Component Serial Cross-Reference (WO40.6).

    • Select the Inquire form action and type the location and work order.

    • Select the Change form action and the Add line action and type the component serial numbers.

  6. Optional. If the byproduct is tracked by bin, lot, serial number, or multiple units of measure, the appropriate button appears on the Finished Goods tab. Select the option or use the appropriate form. Type the actual quantity of byproducts that are tracked by bin, lot, serial number, or multiple unit of measure.

    Tracking byproducts by unit of measure Byproduct UOM Feedback (WO42.5)
  7. Optional. If any component is tracked by bin, lot, serial number, or multiple unit of measure, the appropriate option appears on the Component tab. Select the option to transfer to the appropriate form. Type the actual quantity of components.
    For Use
