Move Transactions
You can move the assemblies you are building from one operation and/or intraoperation step to another using the Move Transactions window (See: Interoperation Moves.) You can move assemblies forward and backward within and between operations. (See: Intraoperation Moves). Moving assemblies into the To Move, Reject, or Scrap intraoperation step of an operations completes those assemblies at that operation. When assemblies are completed at an operation, the system automatically backflushes Operation Pull components and charges resources (See: Operation Completion Moves).
Assembly Move Completion and Move Return Transactions
If function security permits, you can also complete assemblies from any routing operation into inventory or return completed assemblies from inventory to any routing operation. See: Security Functions and Assembly Move Completion and Move Return Transactions.
Resource Charges
Move transactions which complete assemblies at autocharge operations automatically charge resources and overhead at that operation. If assemblies are completed at an operation, and Manual resources are assigned to that operation, the system notifies you that these resources exist. To charge these resources, use the Resources button to access the Resource Transactions window. See: Charging Resources with Move Transactions
Assembly Scrap
You can also scrap defective assemblies by moving them into a scrap intraoperation step. If you enter scrap account number or scrap account alias when you scrap assemblies, the cost of the scrapped assemblies is removed from the job or repetitive schedule. If you do not enter a scrap account or select an alias, the cost of the scrap remains in the job or schedule until job or period close. See: Scrapping Assemblies.
Outside Processing Resource Charges
When you move assemblies into the Queue intraoperation step of an operation that has either PO Move or PO Receipt resources assigned to it, the system automatically creates a purchase requisition in Oracle Purchasing. When you receive assemblies back from an outside processing supplier in Oracle Purchasing, PO Receipt or PO Move resources are automatically charged at the standard or the actual rate. Purchase requisition are also automatically created when you release a job or repetitive schedule if there are PO Move or PO Receipt resources at the first operation. You can track the progress of outside processing assemblies by moving assemblies within the outside operation.
Ad Hoc Operations
You can also add 'ad hoc' operations to discrete job using the Move Transactions window. However, you can only add operations if the Allow Creation of New Operations parameter is set and the TP:WIP:Move Transactions profile option is set to on-line processing. See: Move Transaction Parameters and Work in Process Profile Options.
Shop Floor Statuses
You can view shop floor statuses when performing move transactions. Statuses are removed from intraoperation steps when the quantities at those operations drop to zero.
