Frozen Production

If you are maintaining production that was scheduled using PeopleSoft Supply Planning, the production ID may have a frozen status. The frozen status indicates that a decision was made to hold or firm up the due date and that changes to these production IDs or production schedules within PeopleSoft Manufacturing could result in a change to the schedule created by PeopleSoft Supply Planning.

  • Set a default at the manufacturing business unit level to create all new rework or teardown orders with a frozen status, indicating that you do not want PeopleSoft Supply Planning to reschedule those orders.

  • Override this default using the Planning Attribute page, which is available from the Production ID Maintenance component and the Production by Area Details component.

  • If the production ID or production schedule has a frozen status and you change information that affects the actual start or due dates and times, PeopleSoft Manufacturing displays a warning message indicating that the production is frozen.

  • You can continue, or you can cancel the changes.

    If you proceed with changing the production ID or production schedule, the production ID or production schedule is no longer frozen.

Changes to the production that affect the actual start date and time or actual due date and time include:

  • Item ID

  • Status

  • Production quantity

  • Production type

  • Actual start date and time

  • Actual due date and time

  • Production start date and shift

  • Production due date and shift

  • Routing code

  • Operation yield
