Understanding Work Order Completions for Production-Controlled Items

When you finish producing discrete items on the shop floor, you must record the completions to inventory. The completion transactions that you enter in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Shop Floor Management system update the item quantity records in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management system.

You use the Work Order Completions (P31114) program to record completions. If you issued material for a work order manually, you perform a completion without backflush.

See “Completing Discrete Work Orders" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Shop Floor Management Implementation Guide.

For production-controlled items, you assign a production number to work order completions to track supply.

Before performing a full or partial work order completion, you can review the on-hand availability of production-controlled items by item number, production number, branch/plant, location, and lot serial number. To access the Production Number On Hand form, select the Prod No. Location option from the Form menu of the Work Order Detail Completion form. The Production Number On Hand form displays relevant information from the F41021T table.

The Production Number field and QBE line appear in the detail grid on the Work With Work Order Completions form. The Production Number field also appears in the header of the Work Order Detail Completion form, but it is disabled.

Only component items with the Production Number Controlled option enabled on the Additional Info. tab of the Item/Branch Plant Info. form have the production number information passed to inventory during completions.

You can set the Work Order Lot and Location Defaults processing option on the Sales Orders tab of the Work Order Completions program to override the lot number with the production number during work order completions.

You can set the Memo Lot Field Defaults processing option on the Sales Orders tab of the Work Order Completions program to display the production number in the Memo Lot 1 field during work order completions. If you set the processing option to display the production number in the Memo Lot 1 field, then you can use the Lot field for a serial number during work order completions.

To complete the work order quantity for multiple locations, access the Select Multiple Locations form (W42053B) from the Work Order Completion Detail form.

When reversing a work order completion, the system consumes the reversal quantity from the production number on the work order. The system issues an error if the production number quantity is not available. If generic inventory is not available during a completions reversal, the system uses blind or interactive consumption of production numbers to consume inventory.

You cannot use the Production Number Reassignment program (P34404) because the production-controlled inventory is gone. A work order completions reversal updates the F41021T table for the related production number.

The system uses the production number from the work order to maintain the on-hand quantity in the F41021T table. The system also updates the F4111 table with corresponding production numbers for transactions.

When you complete a work order, the system labels inventory with the production number. When running commitments, the system looks at all inventory, both generic and production-controlled, using the normal commitment process.

You can manage production number inventory through the Production Number Workbench program after you complete work orders.
