Work Order Processing for Configured Items

After you create configured item work order headers through an order entry program such as Sales Order Entry (P4210) or Manufacturing Work Order Processing (P48013), you must run Order Processing (R31410) to:

• Generate the work order parts list by retrieving the parts in the F3215 table that were generated from the P and Q assembly inclusion rules during order entry.

  Note: The system retrieves the part numbers from the F3215 table and passes them back to the Parts List master business function (MBF). The R31410 does not process the P and Q assembly inclusion rules to generate the parts list.

• Generate the work order routing instructions by retrieving the routing steps from the F3212 table that were generated from the R assembly inclusion rules during order entry.

  Note: The system retrieves the routing steps from the F3212 table and passes them back to the Routings MBF. The R31410 does not process the R assembly inclusion rules to generate the routing instructions.

• Commit inventory.

• Back schedule configured routings.

  Note: Components are committed at sales order entry instead of only during order processing. The components will be committed to the sales order at order entry time and then will move to the parts list when you run the Order Processing program (R31410). Thus, you do not need to run Order Processing immediately to get commitments for components.
