Change the production status and release multiple production IDs and production schedules.

Production Selection Page

Use the Release Production Selection page (SF_PRDN_RELSE_REQ) to change the production status and release multiple production IDs and production schedules.

Navigation:

Production Control > Process Production > Release Production > Request Prdn Status Change > Request Prdn Status Change

Report Request Parameters

Enter a request ID and select the business unit.

Current Status and Convert Production To

In the Current Status group box, select whether the current production is Entered or Firmed, and whether you want to change the production status from:

  • Entered to Firmed

  • Entered to Released

  • Firmed to Released

Note: You cannot use the Production Status Change process to reverse orders and change them to prior statuses. Use the Production ID Status Change page or the Production Schedule Status Change page to change production to prior statuses.

Number of Days Out

Enter the number of days out for the production status change. This number indicates the beginning date and the number of days into the future. The default is zero (0); this is the current system date. For example, enter 0 in both the beginning and to fields if you want to change production with the current system date. If you want to change Entered production to Released beginning one day from the current system date and three days into the future, enter 1 in the beginning field and 3 in the to field.

Note: Any production considered to be past due is assumed to start on the current system date. Therefore, you must enter 0 in the beginning Number of Days Out field to include past due production information.

Inc Past Due

Select the Inc Past Due (include past due) check box to include all production of that status with a due date earlier than the early fence in the selection criteria.

Note: You can only select the Inc Past Due check box with one of the entered rows.

Use the Production Selection page (SF_PRDN_RELSE_REQ2) to define additional production status change and release criteria.

Manufacturing Execution System

When you perform this transaction changing production order statuses, if you are integrating to a third-party MES, PeopleSoft Manufacturing uses the Production Order Update EIP to publish a message to the MES with the transaction information. The MES then subscribes to that message and updates the MES information.
