Creating Production IDs

The first step in defining a discrete manufacturing order is to create a production ID. Once you've generated a production plan, manually enter any discrete production or rework orders for those items that were not included in the new production recommendations from PeopleSoft Supply Planning.

When you change any information on an existing production ID, the system optionally sends the Production ID Change workflow notification to selected roles that you defined. These roles could include a planner, buyer, or a production control manager.

You can create production IDs for production, rework, or teardown orders.

If you want to automatically create operation and component lists, you must define BOMs and routings for the end item.

Description

Status

You can add a production ID with a production type of Production in either the Entered, Firmed, or Released status.

You can add a rework or teardown production ID with a Firmed or Released status only.

Note: Pend Cmpl (pending complete), Completed, Clsd/Labor (closed for labor), and Clsd/Acctg (closed for accounting) are used when tracking and closing production, but they are not used when creating or maintaining a production ID.

Maintaining Production ID Information

Field or Control

Description

Production Area

Select to indicate where this production will take place. Once you select a production area, you can view the items produced in that production area by selecting an item ID. You cannot add a production ID for an item that has not previously been defined in the production area selected. Additionally, you must have selected to maintain production IDs for the production area and item combination.

The production area and item combination must have an Active status to add a new production ID.

Item ID

Select one of the items produced in the production area. You can change the item for any production ID in the Entered or Firmed status.

If the production ID has a status of Released, you can change the item for any production as long as subcontracted purchase orders have not been generated against the production ID.

If you change the item ID:

  • The production ID is rescheduled upon saving the page based on the scheduling method for the production ID and the new item's routing, if one exists.

  • The system deletes the existing component list and operation list, and it then creates a new component list and operation list for the new item.

    Once production has a status of In Process, you cannot change the item ID on the production ID.

Note: If you need to change the item ID for In Process production, you can split the production ID into a new production ID—moving the remaining quantity in process—and simultaneously specify a new item.

When adding a production ID for an item with item status of Hold or Discontinue, you'll receive a warning message. However, there is no warning for rework or teardown production type. If the production ID for an item has a status of Hold, the system gives you the option to cancel that order at save time.

Field or Control

Description

Prdn Start Qty (production start quantity)

Displays the quantity required at the beginning of the production process. This quantity may be entered, or it may be calculated when the end quantity is entered. If calculated, this quantity will be rounded up at each operation to account for any operation yield.

You can change the production start or production end quantity for a production ID with a status of Entered, Firmed, Released, or In Process. Changing the production quantity reschedules the actual start or due date and time of the production ID.

Prdn End Qty (production end quantity)

Displays the quantity expected at the end of the production process. This quantity may be entered or it may be calculated when the start quantity is entered. If calculated, this quantity will be rounded down at each operation to account for any operation yield.

Production end quantity may be changed when operation yields are maintained. As production is reported against the production ID, the end quantity is updated to reflect actual production yields.

Expected Prdn Qty (expected production quantity)

Displays the quantity expected at the end of the production process. This is the expected quantity at the time production was started. It is not updated to reflect actual production variances, but it is updated if the production ID quantity is manually changed.

Note: Whether the quantity is a whole number or a decimal depends on the item's unit of measure and quantity precision combination defined in PeopleSoft Inventory.

Note: The production start quantity and production end quantity may not be the same due to operation yield allowances.

Once you add the production ID, keep these points in mind when you change the production start or production end quantity:

  • If the production ID is Firmed or Released, the system recalculates the component's scheduled quantities.

  • If the production ID is In Process and you increase or decrease the order quantity, the system adjusts the component's scheduled quantities to reflect the new order quantity and marks the production ID as changed so that PeopleSoft Supply Planning reschedules the operations during the next planning run.

  • If you have decreased the production quantity and have already issued components, you might have a surplus of components at the WIP location.

  • If you have decreased the production start or production end quantity and already kitted material to the production ID, a usage variance results at accounting close time if the excess material is not returned to stock.

  • If you change the production quantity and the production ID is released and backward scheduled, the system automatically recalculates the actual start date and time.

  • If you change the production start or production end quantity and the production ID is released and forward scheduled, the system automatically recalculates the actual due date and time.

    In this case, the system prompts you to delete the existing component list.

    • If you select Yes to the Component List for Production ID prompt, the system deletes the component list and then creates a new component list for the production ID, based on the BOM in effect on the new production due date.

    • If you select No, the system uses the existing component list for production.

  • If you change the production quantity, and the production ID is Firmed or Released, and subcontracted purchase orders have been created, the system sends a purchase order change request to PeopleSoft Purchasing, indicating a change in production start or production end quantity.

    Note: If a subcontracted operation has more than one purchase order, the system will not automatically create change requests. You will need to manually create the change requests.

  • You cannot decrease the production quantity to a quantity less than the quantity that has already been completed to stock.

Warning! A warning is issued if you decrease the production start quantity to a quantity less than the number of serial IDs associated.

Field or Control

Description

BOM Code and Routing Code

The values appear by default for the production area and item combination effective for the area and item as of the current date. Change the BOM and routing codes if alternate routings are used for this production ID.

Only the BOM and routing codes for the item and the selected production type are available. For example, suppose that you select the Rework production type, you can only select rework BOMs or rework routings if either are defined. Rework and teardown routings are optional. If you do not select a rework or teardown routing, the system does not create an operation list for the production ID, and you need to manually enter the actual start date and time and actual due date and time. For teardown production, the production BOM (or an original production ID) is used to determine the teardown output list. The end item is copied to the component list.

Rtg Itm (routing item)

Displays the item whose routing is used to manufacture, rework, or tear down the end item. Each assembly item can have its own unique primary and alternate routings or reference another item's primary and alternate routings.

Due Date/Time

If you change the due date and time for the production ID so that a different BOM and routing combination is used, a warning message appears enabling you to accept the new BOM and routing combination.

Note: Effectivity dates apply only if you use the Production Option Maintenance component to define the valid BOM and routing combinations.

BOM and routing combinations can be viewed in the Production Option Maintenance component.

Select valid production options (predefined BOM and routing combinations) for the item. If you select the Valid Production Options only option on the Item Attributes by Unit - Manufacturing page, then only the predefined combinations can be entered or selected.

Field or Control

Description

Production Option Button(production option button)

Click the Production Option button to access the Production Option Selection page.

Note: If you create a component list and there are operations linked to the components that do not exist on the routing, the system treats those components as linked to the first operation sequence. This is similar to how the system handles a component with a 0 operation sequence. Unmatched output by-products, on the other hand, are linked to the last operation.

Once you add the production ID, keep these points in mind if you make any changes to the routing code:

  • The system recalculates the production ID's actual start or due date and time based on the new routing's lead times and scheduling parameters.

  • If the production ID is in the Firmed or Released status, changing the routing code also deletes the existing operation list.

    The system creates a new operation list for the production ID using the routing code specified.

  • If the production ID is in the Firmed or Released status, you can change the routing code only if a subcontracted purchase order has not been generated against the production ID.

  • If the production ID is forward scheduled and the due date and time for production has changed based on the new routing, the system prompts you to delete the existing component list.

    If you select Yes to the Component List for Production ID prompt, the system deletes the component list and creates a new one based on the BOM in effect on the new due date.

Field or Control

Description

Sch Method (scheduling method)

If you are using the production start date as a basis for creating the schedule for the production ID, select Forward. If you are using the production completion date as a basis for creating the schedule for the production ID, select Backward.

Start Date/Time or Due Date/Time

If you selected a routing, enter only one of these dates. The system automatically calculates the other date once you define whether the production for this item is based on forward or backward scheduling.

Keep these points in mind when entering a start date and time or a due date and time:

  • If a routing is not used, manually enter both the start and due dates/times, regardless of the scheduling method selected.

  • When using Forward scheduling and entering a start date, the first minute of operation for the earliest shift of the day appears as the default time.

    If the earliest shift spans multiple days, the first minute of the date specified appears as the default time (for example, 12 a.m.).

  • When using Backward scheduling and entering a due date, the last minute of operation for the latest shift of the day appears as the default time.

    If the latest shift spans multiple days, the last minute of the date specified appears as the default time (for example, 11:59 p.m.).

Note: If capacity and material availability are concerns, estimate the start and due dates when you create or maintain the production ID using PeopleSoft Manufacturing, and then schedule the production ID's start and due dates using PeopleSoft Supply Planning.

Revision

If a revision was specified for the area and item, it is displayed here. Otherwise, if the item is revision-controlled, the BOM revision in effect as of the due date for the order is used. Changing the revision is valid only if the item is revision controlled. Select an alternate revision if alternates have been specified. If you are changing the revision and the production ID is in Firmed or Released status, the system prompts you to replace the existing component list.

  • If you select Yes to the Component List for Production ID prompt, the system deletes the component list and adds a new one based on the BOM's effectivity date

  • If you select No, the system uses the existing component list for the production ID.

Prdn Doc Status (production document status)

Indicates whether production documents have been printed. Values are:

  • Do not print: This is the default if the production ID status is Entered.

  • Ready to Print: This is the default if the production ID status is Firmed.

    The system prints production documents when the production ID's status is Firmed or later.

  • Printed: This indicates that documents have already been printed.

    You can only print production documents when the production ID's status is Firmed or later.

Adding and Maintaining Production IDs Using a Weekly View

You can also maintain and view production IDs by using the Production by Area pages.

See Production by Area Summary Page.

Use the Production Start Date/Shift or Production Due Date/Shift page (SF_PRDN_DUE_SBP) to display production start date and shift information or production due date and shift information for the selected production ID.

Navigation:

Production Control > Define Production > Production IDs/Schedules > Maintain PIDs > Production ID Maintenance

Click the Detail button next to the Start Date/Time or Due Date/Time fields.

The first or last minute of the production shift is based on these scenarios:

  • For Forward scheduling, the system uses the work center calendar for the routing's first operation, if one exists.

  • For Backward scheduling, the system uses the work center calendar for the routing's last operation, if one exists.

  • If work center calendars do not exist for the routing's first or last operation's work center, the system uses the production calendar, if one exists.

  • If a production calendar does not exist, the shift's start or end time specified for the five-day work week is used.

  • If you are changing the due date and time and a routing is specified, the system recalculates the start date and time.

    Conversely, if you are changing the start date and time, the system recalculates the due date and time. The production start date and shift and the production due date and shift associated with the start date and time and due date and time are also determined.

  • If the production ID is in the Firmed or Released status and you replace the start date and time or due date and time, the system updates the operation list with each operation's new start and due dates and times.

  • If you are changing the due date or the due date changes as a result of a change in start date, the system prompts you to delete the existing component list.

    If you select Yes to the Component List for Production ID prompt, the system deletes the component list and adds a new one based on the BOM in effect on the new due date.

  • If the production ID is in the Firmed or Released status and a subcontracted purchase order has been generated against the production ID, any changes that result in a change to the start date and time or due date and time may affect the purchase order due date.

    The system displays a warning message when changes occur that result in a change to the start dates and times and the due dates and times.

Output List

Field or Control

Description

Output Type

Values are:

  • Primary: Main output from the manufacturing process.

  • Co-Product: Item that—along with the primary item or output—is planned for and produced as part of the manufacturing process.

    It shares the cost of the process, and there may be independent demand in planning for this item.

  • Recycle or Waste: By-product item that is incidental to the manufacturing process.

    It can be either a waste product or a recycle by-product, which can be used as an input to other processes. The by-product has either a relief (negative) cost for recycle by-products or a disposal (positive) cost for waste by-products. There would probably not be independent demand for by-products.

  • Teardown: Component items that result from tearing down a completed end item.

    Components can be reused in other production and can be returned to stock or routed to another production ID. This output type is available only for teardown production IDs.

Op Seq (operation sequence)

Operation step in which the output is generated. For primary and co-products, this is always the last operation. By-products and teardown outputs can be generated at any intermediate operation. If the operation sequence is 0 or does not exist on the operation list, it is assumed the output is generated at the last operation.

Output Sched Qty (output scheduled quantity)

Output quantity based on the scheduled quantity but adjusted for scrap. The format for this display-only field may depend on the item's unit of measure and quantity precision combination defined in PeopleSoft Inventory.

For example, suppose that item ID A0007 has a unit of measure of EA and a natural round, whole number combination. In that case, only whole numbers entered appear.

  • Co-product quantity.

    If the primary or co-product is expressed in terms of a quantity per order, the quantity specified on the BOM is the output quantity, regardless of the expected output quantity for the production ID or production schedule.

    If the primary or co-product output quantity is expressed in terms of a quantity per assembly, a QPA will first be determined. The primary or co-product QPA is (BOM output quantity) ÷ (BOM quantity). The expected completions for the primary or co-product are (Expected completions at the last operation) × (Primary or co-product QPA).

  • By-product quantity.

    When determining the output for the recycled and waste products, the system uses the expected start quantity for the operation where the by-product is completed.

    If the by-product output quantity is expressed in terms of a quantity per order, the quantity specified on the BOM will be used, regardless of the operation start quantity.

    If the by-product output quantity is expressed in terms of a quantity per assembly, a QPA for each output will be calculated. The QPA is determined by dividing the by-product output quantity by the BOM quantity. The by-product output quantity for the PID and schedule is determined by multiplying the operation expected start quantity by the QPA.

Release Type

This field is used by PeopleSoft Supply Planning and indicates if the entire quantity of an end item at an operation should be completed at the end of the operation. Select None for no incremental release. Select Over Time to indicate that you want a specified quantity of end items to be on hand before completions occur.

Release Offset

This field is used by PeopleSoft Supply Planning and works with the Over Time option of release type. Enter the quantity of end items to be on hand before completions occur.

Note: You can only add teardown outputs to a Teardown type production ID. Similarly, you cannot add recycle or waste outputs to a Teardown production ID. However, you can change the output quantity, operation sequence, and Per field for any by-products.

Output Qty (output quantity)

Whether you can enter a whole number or a decimal depends on unit of measure and quantity precision combination that was defined for the item in PeopleSoft Inventory.

Res % (resource percentage)

Indicates the resource percentage for the primary and co-products.

Important! Only by-products such as recycle or waste products can be added or changed. You cannot change or add primary items or co-products.

If you are maintaining a rework production ID, the output page lists only the reworked item as the end item. You cannot define co-products or by-products with rework.
