Viewing Job Lot Compositions
You can view assembly and component lot numbers used on discrete jobs of any status. If you have an assembly under lot control that has components under lot control, both the assembly and components are displayed.
You can also graphically view assembly and component lot numbers on a discrete job of any status. You can graphically view the attributes of your lots and "drill down" to view multilevel genealogy compositions for a job or lot. You can also print graphical representations of lot composition.
Component lot numbers are assigned when you issue or backflush lot controlled components to the job. Assembly lot numbers are assigned when you complete lot controlled assemblies from the job.
A negative transaction quantity means that you returned the component item to inventory or completed the assembly.
You can perform a single level genealogy composition for a job or lot and view the transactions that created the genealogy.
Note: Since the material transaction history is used to create compositions, you should not purge any material transactions which contribute to genealogies you need to retain.
To display component, assembly, or component and assembly lot numbers:
2. Optionally, select the Assembly.
If you select an assembly, you must select either a lot or a job to display lot number information.
3. If the job assembly is under lot control and you assigned a lot number to it when you defined the job or when you completed an assembly for job, select a Lot Number.
You can also select a Lot Number if you have not entered an assembly. In this case, the assembly and job associated with the lot are defaulted.
4. Select the Job if you did not enter a Lot Number.
If you entered a Lot Number and the associated Job is automatically displayed, you can enter another job. If you entered an Assembly, you can only choose jobs associated with that assembly.
5. Choose the Find button to populate the Lot Number region.
Attention: If you enter a lot controlled assembly that has lot controlled components, use the Item (Item = Assembly) to distinguish the assembly from its components in the Lot Numbers region.
To graphically view lot numbers components, assemblies or components and assemblies:
To view completion or backflush transactions details for a lot controlled assembly or component:
