Understanding Production IDs and Production Schedules
PeopleSoft Manufacturing's flexible model enables you to define, maintain, and track production by discrete batches or by production schedules. Production IDs can be used when it's necessary to track information using discrete orders or batches. Production schedules can be used when you want to manage production by day or shift. Alternatively, you can simply backflush an item within a production area even though a schedule has not been previously established, and the system automatically creates the supporting production schedule for you.
You can also use production IDs to create rework orders to track material, machine, and labor costs associated with the rework production. Teardown orders use production IDs to track costs associated with tearing down an end item into its component parts.
When you defined the production areas for the manufacturing items, you indicated whether you wanted to track production at a detailed level using production IDs, or at a summary level using production schedules. Production IDs also enable you to report intermediate completions at various operations in an item's manufacturing process. In addition, production IDs enable you set up any operation on the item's routing as a subcontracted operation.
If you use production schedules, you can create multiple schedule quantities per shift. You enter quantities for each day of the week, and the system determines the start date when the production schedule is added. This enables you to sequence production throughout the day.
If you are using PeopleSoft Supply Planning, you'll generate production ID and production schedule recommendations for regular production when you create the plan and schedule production. PeopleSoft Supply Planning sends recommendations to PeopleSoft Manufacturing in the form of messages.
You can accept and process recommendations (planning messages) to add new production or to apply changes to existing production. The planning messages that recommend changes to existing production include:
Term |
Definition |
|---|---|
Schedule changes |
PeopleSoft Supply Planning recommends a scheduling change when start and end times are changed, when production calendars change, or when work centers or resources are no longer available for the originally scheduled production times. |
Cancellation recommendations |
PeopleSoft Supply Planning recommends cancellation when it finds that the specified production is no longer needed because the demand for an order or scheduled quantity no longer exists. |
Important! PeopleSoft Supply Planning does not recommend creating rework or teardown production. Create rework and teardown production IDs manually using PeopleSoft Manufacturing.
Before you create production IDs and production schedules, you need to determine the type of production. The following sections review production types and provide an overview of the production creation process—from generating planned production to scheduling production IDs and production schedules.
When you manufacture items, you may need to perform additional work on a completed end item that has already been moved out of production and into stock. You might need to do this to correct a defect in the end item, convert the end item to a different end item, implement an engineering change, tear down an end item into its component parts, or for any purpose other than the normal build of an end item from its production bill of material (BOM).
PeopleSoft Manufacturing provides three production types:
Term |
Definition |
|---|---|
Production |
Use this type for regular manufacturing. The system uses the production BOM to determine the material that needs to be issued and consumed. The BOM is also used as the basis for valuation and for calculating cost variances. In addition, the system also uses the specified production routing for the end item to determine the operations that are necessary to manufacture the end item. |
Rework |
Use this type when you need to do additional or repair work on a completed end item. In this case, the system can use a rework BOM to issue and consume material when you have a standard rework process that requires additional components. Whether or not you have a rework BOM, the system automatically adds the end item being reworked to the component list when you release the rework production ID. The system automatically applies the kit issue method to the end item being reworked when the component list is created. You can add other components to the component list as needed to repair or rework the end item, and the system uses the issue method set at the production area and item level for each component. The issue method appears automatically from the Define Business Unit Item - Manufacturing page, and it can be overridden on the Production Area - Item Detail page. You cannot use multiple outputs with rework production; the output list only includes the reworked item as the end item. In addition, you can create a rework routing for standard rework processes with common operations. When a rework routing has been defined and then selected for the rework production ID, an operation list is automatically created. Because the use of an operation list is optional for rework production, you can also manually create and maintain an operation list as needed to repair or rework the end item. You can change the production type from Production to Rework, or from Rework to Production, if the status is Firmed. If it's in the Released status, you can change the production type as long as subcontracted purchase orders have not been generated against the production ID. If you are changing the production type to Rework in the Released status, the system automatically adds the end item to be reworked to the component list with the kit issue method. Either select a rework BOM code or modify the component list by manually adding any additional items that you need for rework in addition to the end item. You can select a rework routing code. If you change the production type to Production, you are prompted to create a new component list. PeopleSoft Manufacturing then builds a new component list and operation list automatically. Material consumed and labor- and machine-time expended for rework are highly visible on production reports and inquiries. Note: PeopleSoft Manufacturing uses only production IDs for rework production. |
Teardown |
Use this type when you need to break down an end item into its component parts and return the components to inventory. The system does not use a BOM for teardown production, but it issues the completed end item as the component. You designate the component parts that result from tearing down the end item as teardown outputs on the output list. You can use either of these methods to create teardown production IDs:
If a production ID is not selected, the output list is based on the components designated as teardown components on the item's production BOM. The operation list is always based on the teardown routing if one is defined and selected. You can change the production type from Production to Teardown, or from Teardown to Production, if the status is Firmed. If you are changing from Teardown to Rework in the Released status, you can either select a rework BOM code or rebuild the component list by adding items that you need in addition to the end item. You can also select a rework routing code. If you are changing from Teardown to Production, create a new component list. In this case, the item's regular BOM is used. Note: PeopleSoft Manufacturing uses only production IDs for teardown production. |
Every production ID and production schedule has a status that indicates where the production ID or production schedule is in the production cycle. These statuses are used throughout PeopleSoft Manufacturing.
Entered
The system recognizes a production ID's quantity, start date, and due date, but the order has no operation list or component list. In addition, the system creates a display-only output list for production with the status Entered. If production is for a single output item, an output list is generated with the end item listed as the primary item.
You can:
Change the production order's status from Entered to Firmed or Released using the Production ID Maintenance component, the Production ID Status Change page, or the Production Schedule Status Change page.
Record end item completions and scrap for Entered orders if you release production using the Record Completions/Scrap component.
Select an option at the business unit level to release production IDs automatically, to prompt you when releasing production IDs, or to not release production IDs automatically.
Firmed
A Firmed production ID or production schedule has a quantity, start date, and due date, but the BOM and routing are frozen and the component and operation lists exist. In addition, the output list also exists and can be changed. You cannot generate a picking plan for a Firmed order.
You can:
Change the production status from Firmed to Released using the either the Production ID Maintenance component, the Production Schedule Maintenance component, the Production ID Status Change page, or the Production Schedule Status Change pages.
Change the order from Firmed to Entered using the same pages.
Record end item completions and scrap for Firmed orders if you release production using the Record Completions/Scrap component.
Select an option at the business unit level to release production IDs automatically, to prompt you when releasing production IDs, or to not release production IDs automatically.
If you change the production start quantity or the production end quantity, the system recalculates the component requirements accordingly. If the production ID or production schedule contains multiple outputs such as primary items, co-products and by-products, the system also recalculates new output quantities.
In addition, if you're using operation yield, the system then readjusts starting or ending quantities for single output and multiple output production.
You can enter either a new start quantity or a new end quantity, but not both.
If a new routing code or revision is specified or the due date of production is changed, you can recreate the component and operation lists based on the new information associated with the production ID.
If a rework production ID is added and a rework BOM and routing have been defined, the routing is copied to create an operation list. Additionally, the item to be reworked is added automatically to the component list with the kit issue method. An output list is created with the rework item as the primary output.
If a teardown production ID is added, a component list is created with the teardown item as the component. The system assigns the kit issue method to the item to be torn down. If there are any additional components, the system issues them using the issue method set for each item on the production area and item level. If you have previously defined a teardown routing, it is copied to create an operation list. An output list is created based on either the component list of another production ID or the teardown components designated on the item's production BOM.
Released
In the Released status, the production has a component list, an operation list, and an output. All of these can be modified. Additionally, each operation's start date, due date, and time are determined. Once released, changing a production ID can result in the deletion of the existing component list and operation list. The lists are then re-added, based on the new information associated with the production ID.
If you change the production start quantity or production end quantity, the system recalculates the component requirements accordingly. If the production ID or production schedule contains multiple outputs (primary items, co-products and by-products), the system recalculates new output quantities.
For rework production IDs, the system creates a component list with the reworked end item as a component. The scheduled quantity is the same as the production ID quantity.
If you have created a rework BOM for the item, the system copies that to the component list as well. If additional material is needed to complete the rework, you can manually add the items to the component list. The system issues the additional components using the issue method set for each item at the production area and item level.
If you have created a rework routing, the system copies it to the operation list. If there is no rework routing, the system does not create an operation list for rework production, but you can manually create one. An output list is created with the rework item as the only output.
You can:
Generate a picking plan.
Record completions and scrap.
Modify the production start quantity or production end quantity.
Add or change by-products for production.
Change the status from Released to Firmed or Entered, except for a production ID with subcontracted operations if a purchase order has been generated against the production ID.
In Process
When you have recorded production transactions such as issuing or consuming components and recording completions, scrap, or actual hours, the system automatically changes the production status to In Process. You can only change the text, the scheduling method, the production quantity, and the production ID's start or due date and time, depending on the scheduling method.
You can modify the production start quantity or production end quantity for a production ID or production schedule in the In Process status after production has been started.
If you increase or decrease the production start or production end quantity, the system recalculates the component requirements accordingly.
If the production ID or production schedule contains multiple outputs (primary items, co-products and by-products), the system recalculates new output quantities.
If you decrease the production start or production end quantity, the system verifies that you are not decreasing the order quantity to less than what has already been reported as completed or scrapped.
You receive warning messages if components have been over-issued or over-consumed based on the new order quantity.
In either case, the system adjusts the component 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.
You can also:
Generate production ID splits for production IDs with a status of In Process.
Change In Process orders back to Released or another prior status if any completion quantities (at an operation or to stock) have been completely reversed.
To do this, you must reverse all end item completions and scrap, return components to stock, and reverse all actual hour recordings to correct completions or actual hours errors that have been reported against a particular production ID.
You cannot modify operation yields once the order is in process.
Note: You cannot change the production quantity if the production ID has a subcontracted operation and you've generated a purchase order for the ID.
Pending Complete
The Pending Complete status indicates that the scheduled production start or production end quantity has been completed or production for the day and shift has been completed, and you have selected the Production Completed check box on the Complete Production page in the Record Completions/Scrap component.
Complete
To change production to the Complete status, the scheduled quantity must be finished and you must have run the Close Production process to close the production ID or production schedule to any material movement. After an order is in the Complete status, you cannot record any operation or end item completions or any additional component consumption or scrap.
Note: Production must be in the In Process or Pending Complete status before you can change it to Complete.
Closed for Labor
The system sets the Closed for Labor status when you run the Close Production process to close the production ID or production schedule to any additional actual labor or machine hour recording. You can change the production status Closed for Labor from In Process, Pending Complete, or Complete.
Closed for Accounting
When you run the Close Production process to accounting, the system sets the production status to Closed for Accounting, which closes the production ID to all transactions and records the variances associated with production.
Canceled
The Canceled status cancels existing production quantities associated with a production ID. You can cancel production if the production status is Entered, Firmed or Released. You cannot cancel a production ID with subcontracted operations if a purchase order has been generated against the production ID.
When the status on the production ID or production schedule is changed, these actions occur:
|
Status |
Action |
|---|---|
|
Entered (new order) |
Creates a header record, but an operation list or component list is not created. In addition, a display-only output list is created. |
|
Entered to Firmed |
Creates frozen operation and component list. |
|
Entered to Released |
Creates operation and component list. |
|
Firmed (new order) |
Creates header, operation list, and component list. |
|
Firmed to Released |
Status change only. |
|
Firmed to Entered |
Deletes operation list and component list. |
|
Released (new order) |
Creates header, operation list, and component list. |
|
Released to Entered |
Deletes operation list and component list. |
|
Released to Firmed |
Status change only. |
Rework Production
Rework production works in a manner similar to regular production, but with several exceptions. Add rework production IDs for current production in the Released status. The system automatically creates the component list using the rework BOM for rework production IDs, and it copies the end item to be reworked to the component list. The system assigns the kit issue method to the end item to be reworked when the component list is created and uses the issue method set at the production area and item level for each additional component. The default issue method is set on the Define Business Unit Item - Manufacturing page and can be overridden on the Production Area - Item Detail page. If the item has a rework routing defined, the system copies the routing to the operation list. Create rework production IDs with the Firmed status for production scheduled for future dates. The system creates frozen rework component lists and operation lists.
Teardown Production
You cannot create teardown production IDs in the Entered status; you must create them with a status of Firmed or Released. The system assigns the kit issue method to the end item to be torn down when the component list is created and uses the issue method set at the production area and item level for each additional component. The default issue method is set on the Define Business Unit Item - Manufacturing page and can be overridden on the Production Area - Item Detail page. The system creates the teardown output list, either by copying the components on the original production ID or by using the teardown components designated on the BOM.
Effect of Serial Genealogy on Rework or Teardown Production
If you're using serial genealogy, the serial association occurs when the assembly item is issued to the production through kit issues or the picking process. You are prompted to enter the serial ID that is issued to the rework or teardown production ID.
Create production IDs or production schedules by:
Automatically creating production IDs or production schedules based on recommendations generated by PeopleSoft Supply Planning.
Manually adding production IDs by using PeopleSoft Manufacturing pages.
Manually adding production schedules by using PeopleSoft Manufacturing pages.
Note: Use the PeopleSoft Supply Planning solvers to manage and schedule the shop floor.
All production IDs and production schedules maintain production date and shift information, as well as actual date and time information.
Production date and shift information is defined as the working day and shift (or manufacturing day and shift) during which component and production scheduling may be done. Define the production dates and shifts through the business unit's production calendar or the work center calendars. For example, on the production calendar for the month of March, you specify that you are working three shifts on 3/29/07. You just defined a production date of 3/29/07 with three production shifts: 1, 2, and 3. In this example, shift 1 runs from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. When the start date and time or due date and time is determined, the time is converted to the appropriate shift. In this example, a start time of 2 p.m. would equate to shift 1.
Actual date and time is defined as the actual date and time the production is scheduled to begin or end based on the standard calendar. In most cases, the production dates and actual dates are the same. If you have production shifts that span multiple standard calendar dates, the actual date for production may be different than the production date. The system determines the actual date by the actual time that the production is scheduled to start or end within the production shift and the operation start quantity.
These examples explain and illustrate the differences between how PeopleSoft Manufacturing determines production date and shift information as well as actual date and time information when a shift:
Begins and ends on the same calendar date.
Spans multiple calendar dates.
Shift That Begins and Ends on the Same Standard Calendar Date
Suppose that a company runs seven days a week with one shift that starts at 7 a.m. and ends at 4 p.m. A production schedule can now be defined for a production due date and due shift. In the example, the actual due date is 3/25/07 and the due time is 3:30 p.m. Because this shift does not span multiple standard calendar dates, the production due date and shift for the production is 3/25/07, shift 1.
Shift That Spans Multiple Calendar Dates
For shifts that span multiple dates, define whether the start time or end time of the shift is associated with the manufacturing production dates. Define this option when setting up the shift codes using the Shift Codes page. Associate this shift code with a manufacturing production date and shift when maintaining production or work center calendars.
Based on whether you want the start time or end time of the shift to be associated with the manufacturing production date, the system first determines the actual date and time information and then the production date and shift information. These examples illustrate how the system determines the production date and shift based on whether you want the start time or end time of the shift to be associated with the manufacturing production date.
Example 1: Production Date Time Set to Start Time
Suppose that a company runs three shifts and the third shift starts at 8 p.m. and ends at 2 a.m. This shift is defined with the start time associated with the production date. A production schedule can now be defined for a production due date and due shift. In the present example, production is due to end on 3/26/07 at 1:30 a.m. Because the shift in which production takes place actually begins on 3/25/07 at 8 p.m., the production date and shift is recorded as 3/25/07, shift 3. The actual date and time appears as 3/26/07 at 1:30 a.m.
Example 2: Production Date Time Set to End Time
Suppose that a company runs three shifts, and the first shift starts at 10 p.m. and ends at 6 a.m. This shift is defined with the end time associated with the production date. A production schedule can now be defined for a production due date and due shift. In the present example, production is due to end on 3/27/07 at 5:30 a.m. Because the shift ends at 6 a.m. and the flag indicates the production date is set to the shift's end time, the production due date and shift is 3/27/07, shift 1. The actual due date and time appears as 3/27/07 at 5:30 a.m.
When defining production IDs, you specify the actual date and time information, and the system determines the corresponding production date and shift information. When defining production schedules, you specify the production date and shift information, and the system determines the corresponding actual date and time. For production schedules, you can specify the actual time within the production shift. In this case, the system determines the actual date.
For each production ID or production schedule that you create, a scheduling method (forward or backward) is defined either automatically or manually, depending on how the production ID or production schedule is created.
PeopleSoft Supply Planning analyzes supply and demand and determines whether new planned production needs to be generated. If new production is required, the system generates a planning message to recommend creation of a new production ID or production schedule. When a planned manufacturing order is generated within PeopleSoft Supply Planning, it is always backward scheduled based on the required delivery date and the routing or item's lead times to determine the start date of production.
If you are using the PeopleSoft Supply Planning solvers to schedule and reschedule production:
Freeze production within PeopleSoft Supply Planning and apply the frozen requirement to the production within PeopleSoft Manufacturing.
For example, PeopleSoft Supply Planning sends a planning message for a new production ID back to PeopleSoft Manufacturing with the requirement that production is frozen.
Using PeopleSoft Manufacturing, convert the recommendation into a production ID with an Entered, Firmed, or Released status.
If you are using the Production ID Maintenance component to change any information on the production ID that affects scheduling, the system displays a warning message that indicates production is frozen and any of the changes result in rescheduling the production. You can override the frozen status by proceeding and changing the information, or you can cancel the changes.
Within PeopleSoft Manufacturing, you can manually freeze production. Do this by selecting Frozen Production on the Planning Attribute page for production IDs or by selecting the Frozen check box on the Production by Area Details page for production schedules.
PeopleSoft Supply Planning uses planning lead times or routing times when scheduling production, and it takes into account the following factors that affect the actual start date and time and actual due date and time of each operation:
Capacity and material availability.
Planning labor or machine setup, run, and fixed run times or run rates.
Operation overlap, based on an overlap percentage or send-ahead quantity.
Operation intensity, based on machine, labor, cumulative, or longest.
Operation yield.
The work center calendar, if one exists.
The production calendar, if one exists.
The five-day work week calendar, when no other calendar exists.
Reviewing, Approving, and Applying Production Messages
Once a plan has been created and recommendations are made, planning messages are returned to the transactional system using the Post Updates process (PL_POST). Once the messages are received, you can:
Review and approve the production messages using the Approve Production Updates component.
Use this component to select the messages that you want to review, then look at the production details, status details, and configuration code information to select which messages you want to approve.
Review any exception messages generated when the production messages are applied by using the Review Post Errors component.
Use this component to select the exceptions that you want to review, then look at the exception details, dates and quantities, and configuration code information.
Apply the production messages to PeopleSoft Manufacturing to take action on the recommendations made by PeopleSoft Supply Planning by using the Apply Production Updates page.
You can use PeopleSoft Manufacturing to create production IDs and production schedules.
Creating Production IDs
You can use the Production ID Maintenance component to add or maintain a production ID one at a time. When you manually add a production ID, determine whether production is forward or backward scheduled. The selection is based on whether you know when you want to start production or when the item is due:
If the production ID is based on the completion date and time, or due date and time, it is backward scheduled, and the system calculates the actual start date and time.
If the production ID is based on the start date, it is forward scheduled, and the system determines when the assemblies will be completed.
Automatic calculation of the opposing date and time applies only if you specify a routing for the production ID. In addition, the system calculates the production start date and shift as well as the production due date and shift associated with both the actual start date and time and due date and time.
If a production ID is added in the Firmed or Released status, the actual start dates and times and due dates and times for each operation in the manufacturing process are also calculated.
You can also add or maintain production ID information one week at a time using the Production by Area pages. This gives you a one-week view of all production taking place in a selected production area. By navigating to the details by day, you can view daily production ID and production schedule information. When adding production IDs, you select the date on which production will be completed and the system automatically backward schedules the production ID to determine the start date of production.
Creating Production Schedules
Production schedules are always entered with a quantity due for a day of the week, and the system determines the production start date and production start shift using backward scheduling.
Note: Because production schedules are always backward scheduled, you enter the production end quantity, and the system calculates the required production start quantity.
When you manually add a production schedule in the Entered status, the system:
Determines the production start date and shift when the production due date and shift are entered.
Determines the actual start date and time as well as the actual due date and time for the production start date and shift and production due date and shift, respectively.
When you add a schedule in the Firmed status or release a production schedule, the system must:
Calculate an actual start date and time or due date and time.
Calculate actual start dates and times and due dates and times for each operation in the manufacturing process.
Calculating Start and Due Dates for Production IDs and Production Schedules in PeopleSoft Manufacturing
PeopleSoft Manufacturing calculates start and due dates based on the production item's routing, and does not include other production that uses the required work centers or resources. If capacity and material availability are concerns, manually add a production ID or production schedule using PeopleSoft Manufacturing. When you add the production, estimate start and due dates and then schedule the actual start and due dates for the production ID or production schedule using PeopleSoft Supply Planning.
If you are using PeopleSoft Manufacturing to schedule production, there are several factors that affect the actual start date and time and actual due date and time of each operation in addition to the planning lead times:
Operation overlap, based on a percentage or send-ahead quantity.
Setup that can occur during queue time (or at any time once production begins).
Setup time that is included in scheduling the operation.
Operation intensity.
Work center calendar, if one exists.
Production calendar, if one exists.
Five-day work week calendar.
Operation yield.
Define these factors when you set up manufacturing data for each business unit, item, work center, or routing. Once the system creates the operation list for the production ID or production schedule, it reschedules each operation any time that the operation list is modified.
The production configuration process:
Takes the detailed configuration information captured in PeopleSoft Order Management and sends requirements to PeopleSoft Manufacturing.
The production configuration rules enable you to dynamically specify component and operation list elements without having to have standard BOMs or routings for each specific configuration.
Generates configured production IDs, component lists, operation lists, and configured costs.
You can manually create a production ID for a configured item, and create the operation list and component list.
You can use PeopleSoft Manufacturing to manually create rework and teardown production IDs, or create an operation list:
Manually create rework and teardown production IDs using PeopleSoft Manufacturing.
The process of creating rework or teardown production IDs is the same as for regular production. However, because the use of an operation list is optional for rework or teardown production, PeopleSoft Manufacturing does not automatically determine the actual start date and time or actual due date and time for rework or teardown production, unless you have previously created a rework or teardown routing that is then copied to the operation list.
Manually create an operation list if a rework or teardown routing has not previously been defined.
If you create an operation list for the rework or teardown production, the tasks and work centers associated with it are used for scheduling. If an operation list does not exist, manually enter the scheduling information, indicating the actual start date and time and due date and time for production IDs.
Once the production ID is created:
Modify the appropriate start and due dates manually.
If capacity and material availability are concerns and you've created a component list and operation list for the rework or teardown production, schedule the production ID using PeopleSoft Supply Planning.
PeopleSoft Supply Planning treats rework and teardown requirements for a resource in the same manner as regular production.
Note: You cannot create rework or teardown production IDs using PeopleSoft Supply Planning. However, you can schedule rework or teardown production IDs to repair capacity restraints using PeopleSoft Supply Planning.
Occasionally, during the production process you may need to split a single production ID into two or more production orders. With PeopleSoft Manufacturing, you can split production when:
A portion of the production quantity needs to be split out because of a change in processing steps.
A portion of the production quantity must be split due to material shortages or capacity issues.
This enables you to complete what you can and close out the order. The remaining quantities requiring material or resources remain on an open order.
Production variations occur, such as unplanned outputs that need to be completed separately and put away using a different item number.
Perform production ID splits for this type of production orders:
Production
Rework
Teardown
You can:
Split configured production IDs; however, you can only split the configured order to a new configured production ID.
Split production IDs that have subcontracted operations; however, you must perform the production split before running the Select Subcontract Prdn for PO process (SFS5000).
Assign a new item number to the new production order if the final end item produced differs from the original item.
Manually adjust operation lists for production that has not started.
Material, earned conversion costs and actual conversion hours are split across the From and To orders on an operation-by-operation basis. Scrap costs remain with the original production ID.
Correct and modify the component material split across orders even after the order has been split by using the PID to PID Component Transfers (production-ID to production-ID component transfers) page.
Split multiple outputs—primary items, co-products, by-products—to the new (To) production ID if there are still remaining quantities.
In addition, the system copies any resources, attachments, text, or documents to the new (To) production ID. The system maintains the split history at the production header level, and you can view the history by using the Production ID Split History inquiry page.
Make manual changes to the components by using the Production ID Comp Transfer page after a production ID split.
You cannot perform production ID splits under these circumstances:
Production IDs that have subcontracted operations in process cannot be split.
Co-products cannot be split to primary items.
Splits across production types—production to teardown, rework to production, or teardown to rework—are not allowed.
Production IDs cannot be split if pegged.
Note: Production schedules cannot be split.
When splitting production IDs being tracked by serial genealogy, you are prompted for the assembly serial IDs that are being split. These serial IDs will be associated with the new production ID. In addition, the component genealogy associated with the serial assemblies being split is moved to the new production ID.
Production order splits are permanent, and after they're created, the production orders cannot be rejoined at a later operation. Each production ID becomes a separate entity that must be closed and the costs must be reported independently. If more than two production IDs are required, the split must be run multiple times. When the entire quantity of a production ID is moved to one or more new production IDs, the status of the original production ID is set to Canceled.
Both the original (From) and the new (To) production IDs can be rescheduled in PeopleSoft Supply Planning.
If you are maintaining production that was scheduled using PeopleSoft Supply Planning, the production ID may have a frozen status. The frozen status indicates that a decision was made to hold or firm up the due date and that changes to these production IDs or production schedules within PeopleSoft Manufacturing could result in a change to the schedule created by PeopleSoft Supply Planning.
Set a default at the manufacturing business unit level to create all new rework or teardown orders with a frozen status, indicating that you do not want PeopleSoft Supply Planning to reschedule those orders.
Override this default using the Planning Attribute page, which is available from the Production ID Maintenance component and the Production by Area Details component.
If the production ID or production schedule has a frozen status and you change information that affects the actual start or due dates and times, PeopleSoft Manufacturing displays a warning message indicating that the production is frozen.
You can continue, or you can cancel the changes.
If you proceed with changing the production ID or production schedule, the production ID or production schedule is no longer frozen.
Changes to the production that affect the actual start date and time or actual due date and time include:
Item ID
Status
Production quantity
Production type
Actual start date and time
Actual due date and time
Production start date and shift
Production due date and shift
Routing code
Operation yield
Revision
If you're using PeopleSoft Manufacturing with a Manufacturing Execution System (MES), the system publishes messages for the MES when you add or modify production IDs or production schedules. The system publishes production order messages when you:
Change the production status of a production ID or production schedule to Released.
Modify a released production ID or production schedule.
Change the production status of a production ID or production schedule from Released to an earlier status.
Change a component list or operation list.
