Scheduling Items on a Production Line

Access the Line Scheduling Workbench form, and locate a line or cell for a branch/plant.

To schedule items on a production line:

  1. On Line Scheduling Workbench, after locating a line or cell for a branch/plant, change any scheduled quantity as needed.

    If you change the total quantity and update the schedule, the system displays a warning before it spreads the new quantity evenly across the date range. You must update the schedule before the system changes the record.

  2. To specify an alternate line, select a record, and then select Alternate Line from the Row menu.

  3. On Alternate Line Selection, select the alternate line, select Select/Split from the Row menu, and click OK.

  4. On Split Lines Window, complete the Quantity field to move scheduled quantities from one line to another.

    If you access the Split Lines Window directly from the Line Scheduling Workbench form, you also need to complete the Line field.

  5. To specify shift and date information, enter a start date, request date, and shift code.

  6. To complete the split, click OK.

    • Line

      Enter a number that defines a production line or cell. Detailed work center operations can be defined inside the line or cell.

    • Start Date

      Enter a date that identifies the start date of either the work order or the routing instructions.

    • Sh (shift)

      Enter a value from UDC 00/SH (Shift Code) that identifies daily work shifts.

      In JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll systems, you can use a shift code to add a percentage or amount to the hourly rate on a timecard.

      For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll and Time Entry: If an employee always works a shift for which a shift rate differential is applicable, enter that shift code on the employee's master record. When you enter the shift on the employee's master record, you do not need to enter the code on the timecard when you enter time. If an employee occasionally works a different shift, you enter the shift code on each applicable timecard to override the default value.
