Overview
Provides the function to view and maintain Work Order Component records. Work Order Components may also be manually added directly to the Work Order.
Application
To view and edit Work Order Component Item records.
Navigation
Work Order > Related Lists Section > Components Tab.
Processing
New Components can be added to the Work Order. Existing Components can be edited, viewed, and deleted.
NOTE The Components having non-zero Qty Issued/Allocated cannot be deleted.
NOTE When the Work Order Status is '5-Pick List records generated' and all Work Order Components are deleted:
-
If no Time and Quantity has been booked, the Work Order Status will be updated to '2-Firm'.
-
If Time and Quantity has been booked, the Work Order Status will not be updated.
Components Tab
Add Component button: Allows the user to add a component record.
Quick Entry Grid button: Allows the user to add multiple component records prior to performing a save.
Fields
Name: Name of the Work Order Component record.
Qty Req: This is the quantity of the component required for the Work Order.
Qty Allocated: The quantity of this component allocated to the Work Order.
Qty Issued: The quantity of the component issued to the Work Order. Each time a Work Order issue transaction (WOISS) is processed, this field is automatically updated. The Qty Issued can never be more than the Qty Req nor less than zero.
Qty Outstanding: Equals Qty Req - Qty Issued. Used by MRP to determine the real demand for this Work Order Component.
WO Charges: Total value of the work order issues transactions (WOISS) and work order reversal transactions WOISSR) processed for this component on this work order.
Line No: Line number from the BOM component record.
Component Item: This Component's Inventory Item Number.
Operation Number: If Bill of Material overrides has been defined for this component in this parent Bill of Material, this value defines the Routing Operation to which this item is assigned. Used (1) to trigger backflushing and (2) to prevent completion of an operation that requires the component before the component is issued.
Backflush Policy: The Backflush Policy for this component. Options are ‘No Backflushing’, ‘Last Operation’, ‘First Operation’. This value is initialized from the Inventory Item Master for this component.
IMPORTANT When the 'Operation Number' is specified, the system ignores the field 'Backflush Policy'. During the Time and Quantity Booking for that Operation, the system backflushes the Work Order Component.
Navigation (to a specific Work Order's Component Data Elements)
Work Order > Related List, Components Tab > Edit Action or View by clicking the Name row and column cell.
Header Fields
Division: Division in which the Work Order resides.
Order Number: The Work Order Number.
Item Number: The item number of the item being manufactured on the Work Order.
Planned Requirement: Indicates that there is a Material Requirements (MRP) Planning Demand record (aka Planned Requirement) for this component. If not checked, MRP will not consider this Work Order a planned demand for this component.
Qty Required: The quantity of this Component required by this Work Order.
Status: The Component Status:
-
Status 1 - Planned (Material Requirements Planning generated)
-
Status 2 - Firm
-
Status 3 - Ready to Allocate
-
Status 4 - Allocated
-
Status 5 - Picklist record generated
-
Status 7 - Work Order Partial Receipt
-
Status 8 - Work Order Received
-
Status 9 - Order closed
Component Item: This Component's Inventory Item Number.
Line Number: Defaults to the line number assigned in the Bill of Material Master Record. Blank if none is assigned here.
Due Date: Due date of the Work Order.
Scheduled Pick Date: The scheduled pick date of all components on the Work Order is calculated as the Due Date less the Manufacturing and Pick lead times.
Planner: The planner assigned to the item manufactured on the Work Order.
Component Qty Tab
Fields
Enter Qty Per: When checked, indicates that Qty Per must be entered (see Qty Per, below).
Enter Component Qty: When checked, indicates that the Order Quantity is entered directly by the user instead of being derived from a user-entered Qty Per. When the user enters Component Qty, it is used to calculate the Qty Per.
EXAMPLE If Component Qty is set to 30 and the Work Order is for 10 of the Parent item, then the Qty Per is calculated as 30 (Component Quantity) / 10 (Order Quantity) = 3 Qty Per.
Fixed Component Qty: When checked, indicates that the Component Quantity is fixed and therefore equals the entered Component Quantity.
EXAMPLE If a Work Order is for 10 of the Parent item and the Component Quantity is set to 5, then the Qty Per = .5, as follows: 5 (Component Quantity) / 10 (Order Quantity) = .5 (Qty Per).
Qty Per: When Enter Qty Per is checked, the quantity is entered here; otherwise, it is calculated.
Order Qty: The order quantity calculated for this component's total Work Order demand. However, it is determined this is the Qty Per for this component multiplied by the quantity of the parent item ordered on this Work Order.
Component Qty: When either Enter Component Qty or Fixed Component Qty is selected, the Component Qty is entered in this field.
Inv UOM: The Inventory Unit of Measure of the component.
UOM Conversion Factor: The Unit of Measure Conversion Factor which converts the Bill of Material Quantity to the Inventory Quantity.
EXAMPLE If the Bill of Material Unit of Measure for the component is inches and the component is stocked in feet, the Unit of Measure Conversion Factor would be .0833 (copied from the Unit of Measure Conversion Factor record for Engineering-to-Inventory for Inch-to-Feet).
Scrap Factor: Indicates that some of the component quantity issued is expected to be scrapped (a factor is a multiplier, not a percentage). The value is copied from the Engineering Bill of Material Master’s Material Requirements Planning Override for the Parent and Component.
EXAMPLE An anticipated 10% loss of a component should be set to .10 rather than 10.
Setup Qty: The expected quantity of the component consumed in the setup or preparation of the Work Order. The value is copied from the Engineering Bill of Material Master’s Materials Requirement Planning Override for the Parent and Component.
EXAMPLE The first 10 resistors on a reel are lost each time a reel is spooled, regardless of the quantity of the Parent Item being produced, so the Setup Qty is set to 10.
Comments: The user can enter comments about this component.
Issue Modifiers Tab
Information on this tab is sourced from a Bill of Material Override defined for this Parent-Component record in the Engineering Bill of Material Master.
Fields
Work Center: If Bill of Material Overrides have been defined for this component in this parent Bill of Material, this value defines the Work Center to which this item is assigned. Used to trigger backflushing.
Process: If Bill of Material Overrides have been defined for this component in this parent Bill of Material, this value defines the Manufacturing Process to which this item is assigned. Used to trigger backflushing.
Operation Number: If Bill of Material overrides have been defined for this component in this parent Bill of Material, this value defines the Routing Operation to which this item is assigned. Used (1) to trigger backflushing and (2) to prevent completion of an operation that requires the component before the component is issued.
Backflush Policy: The Backflush Policy for this component. Options are ‘No Backflushing’, ‘Last Operation’, ‘First Operation’. This value is initialized from the Inventory Item Master for this component.
Date Required: The date that this component is to be picked from inventory and issued to the Work Order. Material Requirements Planning uses it as the date the component is needed in inventory.
Qty Dispositions Tab
Fields
Qty Required: The Component quantity required to assemble/build the Work Order Quantity Required of the Parent Item.
Qty Issued: The quantity of this component issued to the Work Order. Each time a Work Order issue transaction is processed, this field is automatically updated. Qty Issued can never be greater than the Quantity Required nor less than zero.
Qty Allocated: The quantity of this component allocated to the Work Order.
Qty Remaining: The quantity of this component remaining to be issued to the Work Order (Quantity Required - Quantity Issued).
Component Status: Possible values are:
Issue Project Tab
Fields
Project: The Project to which the Work Order is assigned.
Issuing Project: The Project from which the component was issued to the Work Order.
NOTE The Issuing Project will differ from the Work Order Project when the component’s Inventory Item is designated as belonging to the Home Project and the Work Order Project is not the Home Project. In that case, the Issuing Project is the Home Project.
Unit Cost Tab
When a Work Order Issue Transaction happens, the individual Unit Cost components listed here are set to
-
For the first Issue Transaction, the cost of the item at the time of issue.
-
For subsequent Issue Transactions, the average of the Unit Cost from prior issues and the cost of the item just issued.
Fields - These fields correspond to the equivalent fields in the Inventory Item Master:
Unit Cost, Material
Unit Cost, Labor
Unit Cost, Material Ohd
Unit Cost, Labor Ohd
Unit Cost, Fringe Ohd
Unit Cost, Machine Ohd
Unit Cost, Subcontract Material
Unit Cost, Subcontract Labor
Deductions Tab
Fields - When Work Order Receipts occur, Deduction values increase proportionally according to how much component material remains in WIP and how much has been received into stock as part of the manufactured item. If, for example, 100 units of the component at a Unit Cost, Labor of 123.45 ea have been issued to the Work Order and the Work Order has been 80% received, then Deductions, Labor will = (100 x 123.45) x .80, or 9,876.00. The eight Deduction fields below correspond to the eight Unit Cost fields above.
Deductions, Material
Deductions, Labor
Deductions, Material Ohd
Deductions, Labor Ohd
Deductions, Fringe Ohd
Deductions, Machine Ohd
Deductions, Subcontract Material
Deductions, Subcontract Labor
Reference Designators Tab
Fields
Reference Designators: If Reference Designators have been defined on the Engineering Bill of Material Master record for this component, they are presented here. Otherwise, they can be entered directly here.
NOTE In order for the Reference Designators to populate on the Work Order Component from the Engineering Bill of Material Master, the Division Master > Advanced Options Tab > ‘WO Component Reference Designators’ checkbox must be checked.
