Analysis and Adjustment Using Work Orders
Use the Work Orders table to review and adjust work orders. Unreleased planned make orders from Oracle Supply Planning are included in the table if a supply plan or an integrated demand and supply plan is referenced within the schedule.
If the Include unreleased planned make orders from supply plan checkbox is enabled before the production schedule is run, the unreleased planned make orders from Oracle Supply Planning are included in the Work Orders table.
You can also filter records by work orders or produced items. When you select a work order in the table, its operations are highlighted in the Gantt chart. Click the Clear Pegging Highlights button to remove the highlighting. For more work order information, you can click the View Work Order icon in the Work Order column to view the work order in the Supply Chain Execution work area.
Analyze
Here are things you need to know when you review and analyze the work orders using the Gantt chart:
- Review start and end times for each work order with their need-by dates to understand whether they will be completed on time.
- The work orders can have statuses as released and unreleased while planned orders can have status only as planned.
- A work order's need-by-date in Oracle Production Scheduling is set to the work order's need-by-date in Work Execution, if it's populated. If it isn'tpopulated, then the work order's need-by-date in Production Scheduling is set to the work order's planned completion date in Work Execution.
- A planned order's need-by-date in Production Scheduling is set to the planned order's need-by-date in Supply Planning, if it's populated. If it isn't populated, then the planned order's need-by-date in Production Scheduling is set to the planned order's new schedule date in Supply Planning. For firm planned orders, the need-by-date in Production Scheduling is always set to the new schedule date in Supply Planning.
