Understanding the Methods Used to Attach Co-Products and By-Products

For process manufacturing, you attach co-products and by-products after you enter a work order header. Co-products are usually manufactured together or sequentially because of product or process similarities. By-products are materials for which production is incidental to the process, but that may have value. Co-products and by-products identify the items that result from the process, whether they are planned or unplanned.

You can use these methods to attach co-products and by-products:

• Manually, by making changes after running the Order Processing program (R31410).

• Interactively, by using the Work Order Entry program (P48013).

• Automatically, by attaching them after the header is entered by setting a processing option in the Work Order Entry program (P48013).

• Automatically, by setting a processing option to attach them from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Requirements Planning system.
