Function security is the mechanism by which user access to applications functionality is controlled. System administrators administer function security.
Access to Work in Process functionality is controlled either by menus and form functions/subfunctions or by form function parameters.
Some Work in Process forms are coded to accept particular parameters. Parameters can be used to limit access to form elements such as:
Window options
Tools menu options
Buttons
The syntax for entering form function parameters is:
PARAMETER = VALUE
For example, to enter a negative Boolean parameter value for the WIP_WIPDJMDF_CLOSE function, you would enter the following in the Parameters field in the Form Functions window:
UNCLOSE = N
The following table describes the Work in Process form function parameters. All values are either Yes or No.
| Function | User Function Name | Parameter |
|---|---|---|
| WIP_WIPDJMDF_CLOSE | Define Discrete Jobs: Close Discrete Jobs | UNCLOSE |
| WIP_WIPTXCMP | WIP Completion Transaction: Filter Serial | P_FILTER_SERIAL |
| WIP_WIPTXMAT | WIP Material Transaction: Filter Serial | P_FILTER_SERIAL |
| WIP_WIPTXSFM_OVERRIDE_NO_MOVE | Move Transactions: Allow Skipping Over No Move Statuses | OVERRIDE_NO_ MOVE_NO_SKIP |
| WIP_WIPTXSFM_NO_CMP | Move Transactions: No Completion Transactions | ALLOW_CMP |
| WIP_WIPTXSFM_NO_RSC | Move Transactions: No Resource Transactions | RESOURCE_TXNS |
| ALLOW_FINAL_COMPLETIONS | Completion Transactions: No Final Completions | ALLOW_FINAL_ COMPLETIONS |
| WMA_WOL_COMPLETE | Mobile Work Order-less Completion Transactions: Show Sales Order | SHOW_SO |
Determines whether you can unclose jobs using the Close Discrete Jobs window. When this function security parameter (UNCLOSE) is added and set to No, the Unclose option does not appear in the Tools menu. See: Closing Discrete Jobs.
The default for this option is Yes.
Determines whether the serial number list of values, in the Serial Number Entry window accessed from WIP Completion window, is enabled. If set to Yes, the program filters serial number records and displays only the applicable record. If set to No, the program query displays all serial numbers.
Determines whether the serial number list of values, in the Serial Number Entry window accessed from the WIP Material Transaction window, is enabled. If set to Yes, the program filters serial number records and displays only the applicable record. Is set to No, the program query displays all serial numbers.
Determines whether you can override `no move' shop floor statuses when performing a move transaction. If the WIP Allow Moves Over No Move Shop Floor Statuses parameter is set to No and this function security parameter (OVERRIDE_NO_MOVE_NO_SKIP) is set to Yes, you can move assemblies over no move shop floor statuses. See: Move Transaction Parameters.
The default for this option is No.
Determines whether you can perform assembly completion and return move transactions using the Move Transactions window. When this function security parameter (ALLOW_CMP) is set to No, the Complete and Return options do not appear in the Transaction Type region of the Move Transactions window. See: Move Transaction Types.
The default for this option is Yes.
Determines whether you can initiate a manual resource transaction from the Move Transactions window. When this function security parameter (RESOURCE_TXNS) is set to No, the Resources button does not appear in the Move Transactions window. See: Charging Resources with Move Transactions.
The default for this option is Yes.
Determines whether you can perform WIP final completions in an average costing organization. When this function security parameter (ALLOW_FINAL_ COMPLETIONS) is set to No, the Final Complete check box does not appear in the Completion Transactions window. See: Completing and Returning Assemblies.
The default for this option is Yes.
Determines whether the Sales Order field displays on the Mobile Supply Chain Application Work Order-less Completion screen. If set to Yes, the Sales Order field displays on the screen, and a reservation is created for the sales order when a value is scanned. If set to No, the field does not display and is skipped in the scanned completion transaction.
A form function invokes an Oracle Forms form. A non-form function (subfunction) is a securable subset of a form's functionality: in other words, a function executed from within a form. When the subfunction associated with a certain functionality is included in a menu, that functionality is enabled. For more information see: Menus Window.
The following table describes the subfunction used in Work in Process. A detailed description of each function (subfunction) follows the table:
| Menu | Function (Subfunction) | Functionality |
|---|---|---|
| WIP_TXN_MATERIAL | Allow Overcompletions | Overcompletions from Completion Transactions window |
| WIP_TXN_MOVE | Allow Overcompletions | Overcompletions from Move Transactions window |
You can complete more assemblies than have been defined for discrete jobs and repetitive schedule.
See: Assembly Over-completions and Over-returns and Move Completion/Return Transactions.
