Create Planned Manufacturing Order Manually

This document explains how you manually select the values and parameters that will control the planned manufacturing order that you created.

Outcome

You have created a planned manufacturing order that will be handled like other automatically created planned manufacturing orders.

These files are affected:

  • stored in (All the planned manufacturing orders are MMOPLP)
  • Information on load and capacity is taken from, and updated in, (MCPSPE), (MCPSUM) and (MWLOAD).

Manually creating a planned manufacturing order is a complement to the automatic creation of planned manufacturing orders. Planned manufacturing orders are dealt with by the planning function to later be released, that is, they are made accessible for the production function.

Before you start

See Creating Planned Manufacturing Order.

Follow These Steps

  1. Start 'Planned MO. Open' (PMS170).

  2. On the B panel, press F17=Create, to create a planned manufacturing order.

  3. On the A panel, fill in the Responsible, Warehouse and Product no. fields.

  4. On the E panel, fill in these required fields:

    • Finish date

      Shift work is used in some fields of activity. In such cases, the time can also be specified. Shift work is planned in 'Facility. Open' (CRS008).

    • Planned quantity – change units if necessary.

      Some products allow the unit option. See the settings in 'Item. Open' (MMS001).

  5. Check and correct the fields that are required, but that include a previously determined value:

    • Responsible

      Responsible is specified on the A panel. You can, however, also change the field from the E panel.

    • Order type

      The order type controls how the order is to be handled in the order flow.

    • Structure type – occurs only for some products

      Structure type is used to define more than one product structure per product and facility.

      In 'Settings – Product Structures' (CRS787), define whether a structure type will exist for the product or not.

  6. Check and fill in, if necessary, the fields that are available, but not required:

    • Status - applies to the planned manufacturing order
    • Status – applies to the manufacturing order
    • Project number

      The field indicates the number of the work group to which the manufacturing order belongs.

    • Project element

      The field indicates the manufacturing order's type of activity.

    • Schedule number

      The field indicates the manufacturing order's schedule number in a planning group.

    • Production line

      The field indicates the planning group in which the product will be produced.

  7. Press Enter. The planned manufacturing order is now created.
