Process
These processing options specify whether the system:
- 1. Generate Parts List and Routing Instructions
Specify whether the system generates a parts list, routing instructions, or both when you process a work order. Values are:
1: Generates a parts list only.
2: Generates routing instructions only.
3: Generates both a parts list and routing instructions.
Blank: Does not generate a parts list or routing instructions.
This processing option is used in combination with the Update Parts List and Routing Instructions processing option. The system processes the parts list and routing information based on the value of this processing option and the Update Parts List and Routing Instructions processing option:
If this processing option is set to 1, 2, or 3, and the Update Parts List and Routing Instructions processing option is set to 1, the system deletes any existing parts list or routing that is attached to the work order and reattaches the parts list or routing to the work order. If there is no parts list or routing attached to the work order, the system attaches the parts list or routing to the work order and performs the commitments based on the settings in the Manufacturing Constants table (F3009).
If this processing option is set to 1, 2, or 3, and the value of the Update Parts List and Routing Instructions processing option is blank, the system does not take any action if a parts list or routing instructions is already attached to the work order. If there is no parts list or routing attached to the work order, the system attaches the parts list or routing and performs the commitments based on the settings in the Manufacturing Constants table (F3009).
If the value of this processing option is blank and the Update Parts List and Routing Instructions processing option is set to 1, the system does not take any action.
Refer to the Parts List and Routing tabs for detailed information about the parts list and routing instructions generation.
- 2. Update Parts List and Routing Instructions
Specify whether the system updates an existing parts list and routing instructions if the work order quantity or dates have changed. Values are:
1: Update.
Blank: Do not update.
- 3. Process with No Data Selection
Specify whether Order Processing (R31410) can be run without data selection. Values are:
Blank: Order processing is not allowed to run without data selection. The user must set data selection before running the process.
1: Order processing is allowed to run without data selection. This may impact system performance.
