Work Order Modification for Configured Items

A configured work order can be modified only by the program that created the work order. When changing a configured work order, you have the option of launching the Configured Item Revisions program (P3210) to modify its configuration and the configuration of all its child work orders.

You can modify the configuration of an existing configured work order by launching the Configured Item Revisions program only when the work order is at the top level in the configuration.

Any changes to a configured work order or its configuration affects all of its child work orders. Thus, order quantity, dates, and parent work order number of the child work orders change. Changing the configuration can also result in the creation of additional work orders or existing work orders being excluded from the configuration.

Note: This functionality relates to work orders that are created in the Sales Order Entry (P4210) and the Manufacturing Work Order Processing program (P48013). This functionality does not apply to work orders that are created for a project in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne ETO system.

After you modify an existing configured work order, you can run the Order Processing program again to reattach the parts list and routing to a configured item.

The status fields on the Sales/Configured tab of the processing options for the Manufacturing Work Order Processing program are used to define the work order cutoff status. The values in these fields are used to modify the status of work orders that are generated from sales orders and configured work orders that are created from the Manufacturing Work Order Processing program.

For work orders that are generated from sales orders, the cutoff status determines when the changes to the sales order do not affect the work order. That is, if the work order is already at that status or higher and you change the sales order, then the work order status changes but the parts list and routing are not affected.
