Associate Work Orders to an Exception

To ensure material-tracking and timely availability of materials to the staging area of production, you can initiate the Pick Materials for Work Orders scheduled process in the Work Execution work area. After the scheduled process runs and completes successfully, you can view the generated reports in the Scheduled Processes work area.

For organizations tracked by project, you can search production exceptions by Project Number and Task Number and report the exceptions. Project and Task Numbers are also displayed for the impacted work order operations and in the Production Exception Notification.

To associate work order operations to an open exception, follow these steps:

  1. On the Overview page, scroll over to the Tasks panel and select Manage Production Exceptions.

  2. Click the Open Exceptions infotile which gives you a list of all exceptions reported in your manufacturing plant.

  3. Select an exception from the list to which you want to associate work order operations. This directs you to a separate Exceptions tab.

    This tab displays additional information regarding the exception such as its type, status, description, and so on.

  4. Move to the Impacted Work Order Operations area and click the Add icon. This opens a dialog box Search for Work Order Operations.

  5. Search for the operation you want to associate with the exception. Click the Add button.

  6. The Impacted Work Order Operations area is automatically populated with details about the operation that you have added. Click the Save and Close button at the header of the page.
