Entering Operation Details

Access the Edit Operation Detail form.

Access the From and To Vessel area.

Depending on whether you enter a movement or an in-place operation, you complete the following fields only for From vessel or for both From and To vessels.

Vessel Number

Enter the vessel number. Depending on the type of configured operation, this is a tank number, weigh tag number, bill of lading number, bottling number, or VBT number.

Note: As you enter VBTs, the system might resequence the list. You can resequence the VBTs in the grid by customizing the grid.
Tank Type

Displays the tank type, if you have specified a tank number.

Before Blend ID

Displays the ID that the system assigns to the lot in the vessel. You cannot change Before lot information.

Quantity Before Survey

Displays the total lot volume before changes caused by survey dip. You cannot override this value. The system does not use this value in subsequent processing. The system calculates this value by subtracting any survey gain from the adjusted volume and by adding any survey loss to the adjusted volume.

Before Lot Quantity

Displays the quantity of the vessel's contents before the movement. You cannot change Before lot information.

Instructed After Quantity

Enter the quantity of bulk material, for example, wine, juice, or must, that you want to remain in the vessel after the operation has been performed. This may differ from the actual resulting quantity. You can complete this field for From vessels only if the Instruction Method field in the operation header information is set to From After. If you set the instruction method to To After, this field appears in the To vessel grid.

Instructed Move Quantity

Enter the total Move quantity for the vessel. You can complete this field for From vessels only if the Instruction Method field in the operation header information is set to From Move.

You can complete this field for To vessels only if the Instruction Method field in the operation header information is set to To Move.

If this field is not visible, the Instruction Method field in the operation header is set to a different value.

Instructed Alternate Quantity

Specify the total After height if the vessel is a tank or total number of barrels if the vessel is a VBT. Use this field in conjunction with the Alternate UOM field. You complete this field for From vessels only if the Instruction Method field in the operation header information is set to From After.

You complete this field for To vessels only if the Instruction Method field in the operation header information is set to To After.

Quantity UOM (quantity unit of measure)

Displays either the facility's Weight or Volume unit of measure.

The system enters this unit of measure for From vessels based on the From Material Type UOM field in the configured operation.

The system enters this unit of measure for To vessels based on the To Material Type UOM field in the configured operations.

You cannot change this value.

Instructed Alternate Qty (instructed alternate quantity

The instructed volume measurement of material (wine, juice, must) in a tank recorded after an operation takes place. Specify the total After volume that is recorded after the operation is performed if the vessel is a tank or total number of barrels if the vessel is a VBT. Use this field in conjunction with the Alternate UOM field. You complete this field for From vessels only if the Instruction Method field in the operation header information is set to From After.

You complete this field for To vessels only if the Instruction Method field in the operation header information is set to To After.

If this field is not visible, the Instruction Method field in the operation header is set otherwise.

Alternate UOM (alternate unit of measure)

Displays either the facility's dimension unit of measure (for tanks) or the number of barrels (for VBTs).

You cannot change this value.

Location

Displays the tank location in the facility if you have specified a tank number. You can override the location if the Change Vessel Location Control field for the base operation is set to accept overrides.

After Blend ID

Displays the blend ID that corresponds to the After lot for the vessel assignment. The system enters the blend ID from the After lot when you click the Calculate Move button. You cannot override the blend ID in the operations header; you must use the Lot Attributes program or the Movement Details tab on the Operation Edit form to override this value.

Measure Type

Displays the value from the Tank Master program if the vessel is a tank. This value indicates the type of dip measurement for a dip chart or tank. If the vessel is not a tank, you cannot change this value. Values are:

Dry

Wet

If the tank allows both wet and dry dips, you must select a value.

Predecessor Status and Successor Status

The system displays the status of the vessel's previous operation and next operation relative to the current operation. For example, if the previous operation is closed, the Predecessor Status field displays the value Closed. If the current operation does not have a subsequent operation, the Successor Status field is blank.

These fields are for information only.

View Before Lot and View After Lot

Click to access the View Wine Lot form to review details about the before and after lot of the operations.

View Vessel Detail

Click to access the applications that enable you to review and revise vessel information. For bills of lading, this option calls the Bill of Lading program (P31B91). For tanks, the system calls the Tank Master program (P31B08). For bottling vessels, the system calls the Edit Bottling Vessel Details form.

You can use this option to review vessel details for closed or canceled operations as well.

Unknown Vessel

Click to select an unknown vessel as the To vessel of the operation. You can use this option when you do not want to enter a specific vessel yet. The unknown vessel has very few characteristics that might limit its use. Therefore, you can use it as the From vessel for subsequent operations as well.

You can rename an unknown vessel by selecting Rename Vessel from the Action drop-down list box to access the Rename Vessel program (P31B67N). You cannot reuse a vessel name that is already used in the system. You can use this option for unknown From and To vessels and for single From vessels.

View VBT Detail

Click to access the VBT Movement Details form. This option is available for the From vessel if you are entering a single-vessel operation, such as error correction, inventory adjustment, and so on, and if you have set up the configured operation with VBT as the From vessel.

You can use this option to review vessel details for closed or canceled operations as well.

Remove VBT Detail

Click to remove detail information from the VBT.

Reset Prior Values

If you receive a significant change warning regarding the blend ID, quantity, material type, or wine status of the Before lot of the operation, select this option to override the four prior values with the four current values. When you reset the values, the system also clears the significant change warning.
