Viewing Work Center Where-Used Data

Using the Review Work Center Where Used component, you can view the tasks, routings, and production that are associated with a selected work center. On all pages in this component, you can control the data and pages that you see by changing the Search field selection. Initially, the page automatically displays the choice that mirrors the page; for example, the value is initially Only Tasks for the Work Centers Used on Tasks page. You can change this to Search All or to search for Only Tasks, Only Routings, or Only Production.

If you select Select All after entering the business unit and work center, the system populates all pages in this group with data. If you select only the default, the system populates only the current page with data, after you click the Search button.

If you select something other than the default or Search All, you access the page that corresponds with your choice. For example, if you are on the Work Centers Used on Tasks page and you select Only Routings, you access the Work Centers Used on Routings page. Then, click the Search button to view the routings that are associated with a specific work center. You can change the selected options, which appear by default from the previous page, before you click Search.

This section discusses how to:

  • View work centers used on tasks.

  • View work centers used on routings.

  • View work centers used in production.

The system displays all production that uses the work center. It segregates production information by those items in a production area—using production IDs and the items that are managed by production schedules. In the case of production IDs, it displays the production IDs that have an operation that uses the work center. For all other production, the system displays the production area and the item ID in which it is produced. In both cases, it displays the operation sequence along with the operation's status, start date, start time, due date, and due time.
