This topic shows you how to run and interpret inquiries for a production schedule, work in process, material variances, batch step variances, resource variances, and resource usage.
This chapter covers the following topics:
Following are some requirements that customers have for inquiries in Process Execution:
Yes. The Production Schedule Selection Criteria window lets you select batches by pending or WIP status.
Production Schedule Inquiry Differentiates Pending and WIP Batches
The Production Schedule Selection Criteria dialog box enables the selection of the type and status of a production schedule. Production Supervisors can display firm planned orders and batches scheduled for production. The inquiry allows differentiation by status.
Yes. The Work in Process Inquiry searches for batches with a status of work in process.
Work in Process Inquiry Displays Specified Batches in Production
The Work in Process Inquiry Selection Criteria dialog box enables the search of batches by plant, document number, start date, and formula or routing used. The Work In Process Inquiry Details window displays relevant information about planned and actual dates for each batch step as well as required completion dates, so that the Production Supervisor can gain an overview of all work in process.
Yes. The Material Variance Inquiry enables the Production Supervisor to monitor processes outside expected production tolerances.
Material Variance Inquiry Shows Discrepancies Between Actual and Planned Batch Quantities
Production Supervisors use the Material Variance Inquiry to monitor material consumption. When a process is outside expected production tolerances, the inquiry assists in the troubleshooting of specific problems in batch production.
Yes. The Batch Step Variance Inquiry enables the display of variances at the step level.
Batch Step Variance Inquiry Displays Step Variances
Step Variances are a valuable diagnostic tool used to troubleshoot process flow issues. Failure to close batch steps or the inability to complete them in an allowable time helps Production Supervisors optimize work processes at the batch step level.
Yes. The Resource Variance Inquiry enables the Production Supervisor to display variances in actual versus planned hours for each resource utilized in the batch.
Resource Variance Inquiry Identifies Resource Consumption Problems
The Production Supervisor runs the Resource Variance Inquiry to identify variations in resource consumption during batch production. By investigating planned versus actual hours used for each resource, it is possible to troubleshoot production bottlenecks and remove contentions for resources in a production run. The Resource Usage window enables management to examine relative efficiencies for a process.

Original Qty is the initial amount of each byproduct when the batch was created. This field is a baseline for the initial creation of the batch.
Planned Qty is the amount of byppoducts planned. The Planned Qty changes when the batch is scaled, and is editable in a batch with a status of Pending.
WIP Plan Qty is the work in process planned quantity of byproducts. This field displays for batches with a status of WIP, Completed, or Closed.
Actual Qty is the actual quantity of byproducts yielded. This field displays for batches with a status of WIP or Completed.
UOM is the unit of measure for the original and planned quantities.
By-Product Type displays as Rework, Sample, Waste, or Yield depending on the byproduct.
Allocated is selected if the material displayed on the product line is fully allocated.
The following fields are display only:
Yield Type displays the type of product yield as:
Automatic when products are yielded automatically when the batch is completed.
Manual when products are yielded manually.
Incremental when product yield is calculated by incremental backflushing.
Automatic by step when products are yielded automatically as the step is completed.
Scale Type displays as:
Fixed if the product is not scalable.
Proportional if the product is scalable.
Scale Multiple is the scaling increment for the ingredient.
Scale Rounding Variance % is the percent variance allowable for rounding when the Scale Type is Integer.
Rounding Direction displays as:
Down if the acceptable rounding direction is down to the nearest multiple.
Up if the acceptable rounding direction is up to the nearest multiple.
Either if the acceptable rounding direction is up or down to the nearest multiple.
Contribute to step Qty displays Yes if the byproduct contributes to step quantity.
Step is the step associated to the product.
