You can complete assemblies into inventory from jobs and schedules using move completion transactions. You can also return completed assemblies back to jobs or repetitive schedules using move return transactions.

Prerequisites

• Release a job or repetitive schedule. See: Releasing Discrete Jobs and Releasing Repetitive Schedule.

• Confirm that the From intraoperation step has a shop floor status that allows you to move assemblies from one intraoperation step to another. See: Assigning and Viewing Shop Floor Statuses.

   To select a job, repetitive schedule, or sales order:

1. Navigate to the Move Transactions window.

2. Select a Sales Order, repetitive Line and Assembly, Assembly, or Job. The cursor defaults to one of these fields based on how you have the TP:WIP:Move Transaction First Field profile option set. See: Profile Option Descriptions

   You can only select a discrete job or a repetitive line and assembly for a repetitive schedule if the job or schedule has a status of Released orComplete.

   You can reserve over-completion quantities from jobs linked to sales orders. Enter the sales order number, otherwise the over-completion is unreserved excess inventory. See: Linking Sales Orders and Discrete Jobs.

   To move and complete assemblies or return and move assemblies:

1. Choose the Complete or Return Transaction Type. See: Move Transaction Types

   If you are completing assemblies, information from the last operation of the job or schedule is automatically defaulted into the operation To fields - Sequence, Code, and Department - and the To Move intraoperation step is defaulted for the To Step.

   If you are returning assemblies, information from the last operation of the job or schedule is automatically defaulted into the operation From fields - Sequence, Code, and Department - and the To Move intraoperation step is defaulted for the From Step.

2. If you are completing assemblies, select the complete From operation Sequence and intraoperation Step.

3. Select the UOM. See: Overview of Units of Measure.

   You can use any valid, alternate unit of measure for the assembly you are moving.

4. Enter the transaction Quantity.

   If you are completing assemblies, you can complete a greater quantity than the job or schedule start quantity, subject to the tolerance level set. For example, if you have 49 assemblies at operation 10, and 51 at operation 20 you can complete the assemblies at operation 10 before completing those at operation 20.

   If you are returning assemblies, you can return fewer but not more assemblies than the number of assemblies that have been completed from a standard Discrete job. You can return more assemblies than completed to non-standard Discrete jobs and to Repetitive schedules. You cannot return more assemblies than are in inventory unless the Allow Negative Balances parameter is set in Oracle Inventory. See: Organization Parameters Window.

   If you enter a quantity that is less than the minimum transfer quantity for the operation, a warning is displayed but you are allowed to continue.

   If you selected an alternate unit of measure, you must enter the quantity in the alternate unit of measure.

5. Enter the transaction Date and time.

   The date and time must fall within an open accounting period and cannot be greater than the current date or less than the release date of the job or the earliest valid repetitive schedule.

6. Optionally, select the Reason code. See: Defining Transaction Reasons.

7. Optionally, enter the transaction Reference.

   References can be used to identify transactions on standard reports. They can be up to 240 characters of alpha numeric text.

8. Choose Save to save your work.
