Issuing and Returning Specific Components
You can use the 'Specific Component' option to issue and return components of any supply type to and from jobs and schedules. If the job or schedule has a routing, components can be issued and returned to any operation.
Ad Hoc Material Requirements
You can use the 'Specific Component' option to issue and return components that are not required on the work in process bills of jobs and schedules. These ad hoc material requirements are created with a required quantity of 0.
Prerequisites
To select sales orders, discrete jobs, or repetitive schedules:
2. Select a Sales Order, repetitive Line and Assembly, Assembly, or Job. The cursor defaults to one of these fields based on how the TP:WIP:Material Transactions First Field profile option is set. See: Work in Process Profile Options.
You can only select a discrete job or a repetitive line and assembly for a repetitive schedule if the job or schedule has a status of Released or Complete.
To define issue or return transaction header information:
1. In the Transaction region, select the transaction Type: WIP component issue, WIP component return, WIP negative component issue, or WIP negative component return. See: WIP Material Transaction Types.
2. Enter the transaction Date and time.
The date and time must fall within an open accounting period and cannot be greater than the current date or less than the release date of the job or the earliest valid repetitive schedule.
If a supply subinventory/locator is entered here, it is used in the transaction detail window as the default for those components that do not have a supply subinventory/locator defined at the component or item level.
If the Oracle Inventory INV:Allow Expense to Asset Transfer profile option is set to Yes, you can select an expense subinventory. See: Inventory Profile Options.
4. Choose the Include Specific Component option.
Attention: You cannot enter transaction criteria when issuing or returning specific components.
5. Choose the Transact button.
Depending on the transaction type selected, the transaction detail folder window (WIP component issue, WIP component return, WIP negative component issue, or WIP negative component return) appears. See: Customizing the Presentation of Data in a Folder.
To transact or add and transact 'ad hoc' component requirements:
1. In transaction detail folder window (WIP component issue, WIP component return, WIP negative component issue, or WIP negative component return), select the component Item.
You can select Push, Assembly Pull, Operation Pull, Bulk, Supplier and Phantom supply type items. You can select lot, serial, or lot and serial controlled items. You can select components that are required by a job or schedule even though they are not automatically displayed.
The item's current revision is defaulted.
If the component does not have an assigned subinventory/locator, the subinventory/locator entered in the WIP Material Transaction window is defaulted. It can be overwritten.
If the Oracle Inventory INV:Allow Expense to Asset Transfer profile option is set to Yes, you can select an expense subinventory. See: Inventory Profile Options.
If no routing exists, the operation sequence defaults to 1.
Attention: Do not assign Assembly Pull items to operations that are non-count point/autocharge operations. This can result in over-issues at the operation if you do not transact all assemblies that you are completing through the operation.
You can enter any nonzero quantity including a quantity that result in an over-issue or over-return of a job or schedule's components requirements.
References can be used to identify transactions on standard reports. They can be up to 240 characters of alpha numeric text.
10. Choose the Done button to save your work.
