Glossary

Bill Type

Enter a value from user-defined code (UDC) table 40/TB (Bill Type) that designates the type of bill of material. You can define different types of bills of material for different uses. For example:

M for a standard manufacturing bill.

RWK for a rework bill.

SPR for a spare parts bill.

The system enters bill type M in the work order header when you create a work order, unless you specify another bill type. The system reads the bill type code on the work order header to know which bill of material to use to create the work order parts list. Material Requirements Planning (MRP) uses the bill type code to identify the bill of material to use when it attaches MRP messages. Batch bills of material must be type M for shop floor management, product costing, and MRP processing.

Branch/Plant

Enter an alphanumeric code that identifies a separate entity within a business for which you want to track costs. For example, a business unit might be a warehouse location, job, project, work center, branch, or plant.

You can assign a business unit to a document, entity, or person for purposes of responsibility reporting. For example, the system provides reports of open accounts payable and accounts receivable by business unit to track equipment by responsible department.

Business unit security might prevent you from viewing information about business units for which you have no authority.

Document Type

Enter a value from UDC 00/DT (Document Type - All Documents) that identifies the origin and purpose of the document. Enter the document type to use as the default value or select it from the Select User Define Codes form. For example, you can specify the default document type associated with the purchase order for a subcontract routing.

Due Date

Enter the date that an item is scheduled to arrive or that an action is scheduled for completion.

Employee Number

Enter a number that identifies an entry in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Address Book system, such as employee, applicant, participant, customer, supplier, tenant, or location.

Freeze Code

Enter a code that indicates if the line on the order is frozen. Master Production Scheduling (MPS) and MRP do not suggest changes to frozen orders. Values are:

Y: Yes, freeze the order.

N: No, do not freeze the order. This is the default value.

Item Number

Enter a number that the system assigns to an item. It can be in short, long, or third item number format.

Line/Cell

Enter a number that defines a production line or cell. Detailed work center operations can be defined inside the line or cell.

Line Type

Enter the default line type associated with the sales order for kit components. This processing option applies only to kit items. Enter the line type to use as the default value or select it from the Line Type Search form.

Order Number

Enter a number that identifies the original document. This can be an invoice number, work order number, sales order number, journal entry number, and so on.

If you use the employee number format for time entry, the system displays the Employee Number field instead of the Order Number field.

Quantity Completed

Enter the number of units committed for shipment in Sales Order Entry, using either the entered or the primary unit of measure defined for this item. In the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Manufacturing and Work Order Time Entry systems, this field can indicate completed or scrapped quantities. The quantity type is determined by the type code entered.

Quantity Scrapped

Enter the number of units canceled in Sales Order or Work Order Processing, using either the entered or the primary unit of measure defined for this item. In manufacturing, this can also be the number of units scrapped to date.

Request Date

Enter the date that an item is scheduled to arrive or that an action is scheduled for completion.

Routing Type

Enter a value from UDC 40/TR (Routing Type) that indicates the type of routing. You can define different types of routing instructions for different uses. For example:

M: Standard Manufacturing Routing

RWK: Rework Routing

RSH: Rush Routing

You define the routing type on the work order header. The system then uses the specific type of routing that you define in the work order routing.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Product Costing and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Capacity Planning systems use only the M type of routing.

Shift Code

Enter a value from UDC 00/SH (Shift Codes) that identifies daily work shifts.

In JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll systems, you can use a shift code to add a percentage or amount to the hourly rate on a timecard.

For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll and Time Entry: If an employee always works a shift for which a shift rate differential is applicable, enter that shift code on the employee's master record. When you enter the shift on the employee's master record, you do not need to enter the code on the timecard when you enter time. If an employee occasionally works a different shift, you enter the shift code on each applicable timecard to override the default value.

Status

Enter a value from UDC 00/SS (Work Order Status) that indicates the status of a work order, rate schedule, or engineering change order.

Unit of Measure

Enter a value from UDC 00/UM (Unit of Measure) that identifies the unit of measurement for an amount or quantity. For example, it can represent a barrel, box, cubic meter, liter, hour, and so on.

Variance

Enter the variance amount, hours or quantity associated with an operation.
