Process Dual UOM for LPN Completions for Discrete Manufacturing
Support dual unit of measure (UOM) tracking for License Plate Number (LPN) completions in Discrete Manufacturing environments with this new feature in Release 12.2.13. Prior to this release, handling dual UOM for LPNs in Manufacturing contexts was not fully supported, often requiring manual adjustments or workarounds to manage inventory in different measurement units during completion processes.
This functionality offers substantial business benefits by ensuring accurate inventory tracking and reporting across primary and secondary units of measure, reducing errors in manufacturing workflows. It addresses critical needs in industries such as Electronics and Pharmaceuticals, where components are often measured in multiple units (e.g., weight and count). Use cases include completing work orders with LPNs tracked in both units, enhancing precision in Inventory Management. Implementation considerations involve setting up item attributes to support dual units and ensuring integration with manufacturing processes for seamless data flow.
Steps to enable and configure
You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.
Tips and considerations
- Verify that all relevant items are configured with both primary and secondary units of measure to fully utilize this feature.
- Test the integration with Discrete Manufacturing processes to confirm accurate tracking during LPN completions.
- Consider updating reporting tools to reflect dual unit data for better decision-making.
