Defining Seiban Numbers
In a Seiban manufacturing environment, Seiban numbers are associated with supply and demand and are used to manage manufacturing activities.
Seiban numbers are used in the same way as project numbers with the following exceptions:
- Seiban numbers are defined in Oracle Project Manufacturing, not in Oracle Projects.
- No tasks are associated with Seiban numbers.
- The Project Control level in the Organization Parameters window is set to Project.
To define Seiban numbers:
2. Enter a Seiban number and name unique within an Operating Unit. Alternatively, query any existing Seiban numbers and choose New; then enter a Seiban number and name.
3. Optionally, enter Customer Number or Customer Name, Bill to Location, Ship to Location.
4. Optionally, choose Parameters to navigate to the Assign Project Parameters window. This will automatically save your new Seiban number and name. If you do not choose Parameters, save your work.
5. In the Project Parameters window, assign the organization that the project, planning group, cost group, and WIP accounting class association is effective in.
