Understanding Copy Test Results

As you process manufacturing, purchasing, and inventory transactions for items, you can copy test results to reduce redundant test results entry. The Test Results Search and Select program (P3711W) allows you to select one record for item, branch/plant, location, lot, and order number which forms the full key.

For example, if you search on an item, then the test results header record displays all branch/plants, locations, and lots for the item. Items may or may not be associated with an order. You select one record from the list of available records.

You can copy test results using the following programs:

  • Completions Workbench (P3119)

  • Work Order Completions (P31114)

    You copy test results for a single order. The system does not support multi-line test results.

  • Co/By Product Completion (P31115)

  • Super Backflush (P31123)

  • P O Receipts (P4312)

  • Receipt Routing Movement and Disposition (P43250)

  • Inventory Transfers (P4113)

  • Item Reclassifications (P4116)

You set the Test Results Control (Y/N) option in the Branch/Plant Constants program (P41001) to enable the copy test results functionality in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system. The system stores the option setting in the Inventory Constants Tag File table (F41001T1).

The system calls the Test Results Search and Select program when you select the associated option from the Row menu. After you select a record to copy and click Select on the Test Results Search and Select form, the system copies the detail records of the selected header record to the current order in the Test Results table (F3711) and calls the Test Results Revisions program (P3711). You can add or change test results using the Test Results Revisions program.

Note: Calling applications do not call the Test Results Search and Select program if test results exist for that item, branch/plant, location, lot, and order. If test results exist, then the copy functionality is not available as the system considers this to be update mode.

The Test Results Search and Select program is called from all programs except the inventory programs. When you perform inventory transfers or item reclassifications, the system directly passes the test result records from the source location and lot in the F3711 table to the destination location and lot in the F3711 table. The system does not copy test results if they already exist for a lot and location.

When you enter the quantity to complete, select the Enter Test Results after Completion option, and click Save and Close on the Work Order Completion Detail form, the Test Results Search and Select form appears whether or not there is a quality record to copy. If the Test Results Search and Select form is blank, you can click Close and enter the first test results on the Test Results Revisions form. After that first completion, when you complete additional quantity, the Test Results Search and Select form is populated and you can copy test results.

Note: The Copy Test Results feature is not available from the Test Results Revisions program.

You cannot copy test results in the Certificate of Analysis (COA) program (R37900). You must copy the test results at every level in multi-level items so that the COA for multi-level tracing is maintained.

Note: The Copy Test Results feature uses the User Reference field (URRF) to hold a value of COPY for all copied records.
