How You Create a Transform Work Order
To create transform work order in Oracle Manufacturing, you must complete tasks in both the Work Definition and Work Execution work areas:
Work Order
You can select a specific work order type to create a transform work order. If you have access to Manage Work Orders, you can create the new Transform work order. For a Transform work order, the work definition is optional. However, you must specify the Transform from Item field. Transform from Item is the item from which the work order item is being transformed to.
The valid work definitions of type Transform which are defined for the work order item, and the Transform from Item combination are displayed. You can select any one of them. You can create the Transform work order in a Released, Unreleased, or On-hold status if a work definition is provided. You can create it in an Unreleased or On-hold status if a work definition is not provided. The rest of the behavior is similar to that of a standard or a nonstandard work order.
You must manually specify the Transform from Item as an item in any of the work order operations. Items with a negative quantity are inherited though the work definition explosion.
Additionally, the items with negative quantity can be assigned to the Transform work order operations as ad hoc items.
