Generating Production ID Splits

When required, you can split a single production ID into two or more production orders.

You can only split production with a status of In Process. Quantities can be split by operation based on the quantity that still exists at the original production ID operation sequence. You can also split a batch production ID order that has at least one co-product or by-product in addition to the primary item. You can split the entire production quantity to a new production ID, item ID or production area. All new production IDs will also have a production status of In Process.

You can only split production IDs. You cannot split production schedules.

Note: You cannot split an In Process production ID if there are pending pick plans, pending bar code transactions, or subcontracted operations that are also in process.

If you want to split a Pending Complete production ID, change the production status to In Process. You must reopen production to change the status back to In Process.

If you split a production ID that is being traced using serial genealogy, be aware of these issues:

  • You select the assembly serial IDs to split.

    These serial IDs become disassociated from the original production ID and become associated with the new production ID. Any components associated with split assembly serial IDs are automatically transferred to the new production ID.

  • If the new (To) item is not using serial genealogy, you will no longer be able to track genealogy information.

    In this scenario, the new production ID will not have any historical genealogy information.

  • You can use the associate serial commands to associate additional serial numbers with the new production ID.

  • You cannot transfer components to another production ID if they have been previously associated with a production ID using serial genealogy, unless those components are associated to an assembly serial that is being split.

    In that case, they are automatically transferred. You cannot make serial associations when transferring components during the production ID split process.

Navigation:

Production Control > Process Production > Split Production > Production ID Split > Header

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Production ID Split - Header page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

 Production ID Split - Header page

Field or Control

Description

From Production

Displays the production header data from the production ID that you are going to split.

Split Qty (split quantity)

If the production ID that you want to split has no operation list, enter the total quantity that you want to split from the original production ID. Whether you can enter a whole number or a decimal depends on the unit of measure and quantity precision combination that was defined for the item in PeopleSoft Inventory.

For example, if item ID A0007 has a unit of measure of EA and a natural round, whole number combination, then you can only enter whole numbers. If you enter an incorrect number format, you'll receive an error message.

If this field is unavailable, enter the split quantity on the Operation List page because there may be several operation steps with quantities that can be split.

Note: You cannot split a higher quantity than what is remaining at the operation sequence. For example, suppose that there is a quantity of 20 at operation sequence 10. Then you cannot split more than 20. If you enter a higher split quantity than the quantity that is available, you receive an error message.

View Trace Info

Click to access the Traceability page, where you can view the assembly serial IDs that have been associated with this production ID.

To Prdn ID (to production ID)

Enter a value for the new production ID if you are not using automatic numbering. If you are using automatic numbering, retain NEXT as the value.

New Rev (new revision)

Enter a value if the item is revision-controlled and this new production ID represents a new revision for the end item.

Note: Changes to the revision on the To item ID as reflected on the To production ID header only. Components copied during the production ID split process are based on the From production ID's component list and are not based on the revision number entered in the New Rev field.

To Prdn Area (to production area)

Select the area where the new production ID is processed. The production area for the To production ID can differ from the production area of the From production ID, but the end item must be assigned to the production area where you are moving the split quantities.

If you select an area that has a WIP storage location that differs from the From production area, you receive a warning message indicating that any material issued in WIP is not automatically transferred to the new area's WIP location. Use the EZ Transfer page or the Material Release page to move the components to the new WIP location.

To Item ID

You can split the original production ID to the same item or to a different item. However, you cannot split a primary item to a batch item—that is, an item that has at least one co-product. If you're splitting a batch item to a different batch item, then the new item inherits the by-products from the original item ID as long as they are not fully completed on the from Production ID. In that case, they are not copied.

Note: If the To item ID in a production ID split has an item status of Hold or Discontinue, you receive a warning message; however, the warning message does not prevent you from performing the action.

These situations cannot exist when selecting a value:

  • The To item ID cannot exist as a component on the parent component list.

  • The To item ID cannot exist on the parent output list as a by-product because the To item ID would be the end item as a primary item and a by-product.

  • The To item ID cannot be changed on rework or teardown orders.

Config Code (configuration code)

Select or enter a value if the item is configured:

  • If the From item ID and the To item ID are identical, you can change the configuration code for the To production ID.

  • If you split to a different item, the system prompts you to select a new configuration code for the To item ID.

  • If the configuration code changes during the split process, you can change the sales order for the new To production ID.

Use the Production ID Split - Operation List page (SF_SPLITID_OP) to indicate the production quantity to be split from the original production ID at specific operation steps.

Quantities can be split by operation based on the quantity that exists at the original production ID operation sequence.

OK

Click to return to the Operation List page.

Save

Click to process the production ID split. When you save the page, the production ID split is generated and these actions occur:

  • The To production ID is created with a production status of In Process.

    All assemblies completed and scrapped prior to the production ID split remain with the From Production ID.

  • The From production ID routing and associated component list information are copied to the To production ID.

  • If the components use the issue method, quantities issued are carried forward based on the split quantity.

    Issue quantities after the split operation are not carried forward.

  • Scrap costs remain with the From production ID.

    However, you can make scrap adjustments to the To Production ID during the completions process.

Note: If you are splitting the entire production quantity, all the material, actual labor and machine hours, earned conversion costs, actual conversion costs, and scrap costs are copied to the To production ID. The production status of the original production ID is set to Canceled, and it has a production quantity of 0.

Note: You can make manual changes to the To production ID by using the Production ID Maintenance, Component List Maintenance, or Operation List Maintenance pages. Make changes to the production start or production end quantity, BOM code, scheduling method, start date and time, or due date and time.

Field or Control

Description

Shortage Type Option

You can view all components on the From production ID or only the components that currently have shortages on the To production ID. If you view component shortages, the values are:

  • Pending Shortages: System displays all pending shortages that exist when the pending consumed quantity and the pending yield loss quantity is greater than 0.

    This condition indicates that the component was not found in the WIP location or storage location if kitting (kit issues create pending quantities in some instances) or insufficient quantity on hand was found and the full quantity could not be issued. A pending issue quantity could exist on the newly split production ID if there are material shortages for the component.

  • Production Shortages: System displays all production shortages that exist when the issue and yield loss quantity is less than the component's scheduled quantity.

  • Both Production and Pending: System displays all components on the To production ID, including those that have both production and pending shortages.
