Create Shop Order from Chart
Explanation
Use this activity to create a new shop order for
the part record selected in a chart. The shop order will be backward scheduled. The start date is equal to the
need date minus the total manufacture time.
Prerequisites
- The part must not be configured.
- The part must not be connected to a project.
- The Part Type list should be set to either
Manufactured or Manufactured Recipe in the Inventory
Part/General window.
- A Part Revision must exist for the part on
the date start date.
- For the system to automatically
create allocations, the part must have a buildable structure.
- If a routing is used, it
must be in the Buildable state. The system cannot reserve, issue to, or receive an order if there are
no allocations on it.
System Effects
As a result of this activity the system creates a new shop order
for the selected part. When this happens, the system creates material requirements and
schedules operations. It retrieves operations and structures according to the part, structure revision and alternative, and routing revision and alternative
that you entered.
The shop order will be created with Revision/Alternate
valid for the given supply date and the lot size entered.
