Parts Lists and Routings

After you create a work order header, you must attach a work order parts list and work order routing to indicate the parts, personnel, machinery, and time required to make the items.

You can attach the parts list and routing instructions in one of these ways:

• Manually, by entering the required parts on the Work Order Parts List form.

• Interactively, from the Manufacturing Work Order Processing program (P48013).

  This method uses the data from the item's bill of material or routing as the default data for the parts list or routing instructions. You can modify the data.

• Automatically, through the Order Processing program (R31410).

  This method makes copies of the item's bill of material and routing, and uses them for the initial parts list and routing instructions. You can modify the data. This method also enables you to attach the parts lists and routing instructions in a batch. You also use this method to generate a purchase order for outside operations.
