Provide order status and tracking online for all orders released to production.
Track workinprocess by:
Report volume of work in queue by work center and identifying work in the preceding work center
Issue shop packet documents (e.g., picklist, work order routing, etc.) when the order is released to production
Track rework operations and rework orders and separately account for the labor and material charges
Display online status of all open work orders by:
Transfer quantities from one order to another while both orders are in process
Automatically identify the required tooling for the work order
Estimate actual material, labor, overhead and burden cost at any time after work order has been released
Develop ad hoc routings unique to a work order
Accommodate both repetitive and discrete manufacturing orders
Report labor, setup and run variances by operation on work orders
Check availability of material and capacity prior to releasing work orders to production
Report downtime levels by:
Report:
Report percent of capacity utilized by various resources:
Machines
Work centers
Employees
Generate reports which identify deviations from planned routings
Identify the individual who reported completion of an operation on the work order
Generate and schedule rework orders on the shop floor for warranty returns. This should include linking the rework orders to the customer return order and separately tracking these rework type orders
Report scrap and record the labor and material related thereto for assessment of scrap costs
Identify and report over-production and record labor and material related theretofore assessment of the financial impact on inventory valuation
Interface to automated data collection devices to record work under transactions including quantity movement, and scrap. The reader devices may be independent and separate from the video display terminals/keyboards
Track lot numbers of raw material from stockroom through shipment and allow for history accumulation. The lot numbers must provide an audit trail to the work order numbers, item numbers, and customers. NOTE: Work orders may contain more than one lot number.
Track item serial numbers from stockroom to work orders and onto customer shipment
Track lot quantities separately for split orders
Track work orders which require some outside processing by a subcontractor
Compare actual yield to standard for work orders and to trigger revision to subsequent work orders for the same part number and sales order to insure sufficient quantity for shipment
Designate a minimum percent yield for a work order and provide an online flag if this yield is not obtained
Write additional rework and outside processing operations into the existing work order routing
Replace a given operation with one or multiple operations on a work order routing
Utilize either a primary or alternate routing for the work order assembly
Identify alternate operations when reporting on actual work order material, labor and outside processing charges.
Enter via a work order transaction the item number and revision level of the documents and software used to build and test the work order assembly (e.g., assembly procedure, test procedure, test software, etc.)
Automatically carry over and maintain existing work order component transactions when:
Move work order assemblies to stock, MRB, rework, scrap or another work order by the designated serial and/or lot number
