Performing Move Transactions

You can perform move transactions for discrete jobs and repetitive schedules with routings. You can also perform move transaction for non-standard discrete jobs that have assemblies and routing references. See: Move Transactions.

Prerequisites

arrow icon   To select a sales order, line/assembly or job to transact:

  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.

    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 or Complete.

arrow icon   To perform an interoperation or intraoperation move:

  1. Select the Move Transaction Type. See: Move Transaction Types.

  2. Select the From operation Sequence number.

    This is the operation sequence number from which you want to move assemblies.

  3. Select the From operation Step.

    This is the intraoperation step from which you want to move assemblies. You must enter a value in this field if you entered a value in the From Op Seq field. You can move assemblies only from intraoperation steps that contain assemblies. See: Intraoperation Steps.

    You can enable or disable intraoperation steps using the Interoperation Steps parameter. See: Interoperation Steps Parameter.

    You cannot move assemblies from an intraoperation step if it has been assigned a shop floor status that prevents moves. You can optionally prevent moves from an operation and intraoperation step to an operation and intraoperation step if a No Move intraoperation step exists between the two. This is done using the Allow Moves Over No Move Shop Floor Statuses parameter. See: Move Transaction Parameters.

    Note: You can view statuses by choosing the Statuses button.

  4. Select the To operation Sequence number.

    The system defaults in the next count point operation as the To operation sequence. For example, suppose you have three operations at sequences 10, 20, and 30 defined as count point, non-count point, and count point respectively. When you select operation 10 as the From operation, the system automatically defaults operation 30, the next count point operation, as the To operation. You can override this default and choose operation 20, if required.

    If you move assemblies between operations (interoperation), the To operation sequence must be the different from the From operation sequence. You can select any operation on the routing including preceding operations.

    If you move assemblies within an operation (intraoperation), the To operation sequence must be the same as the From operation sequence. For example, you can move assemblies from the Queue to Reject intraoperation step of the same operation.

  5. Select the To operation Step. This can be any operation step in any operation sequence.

    If you are entering an interoperation move, the To Operation step can be any intraoperation step in an operation before or after the current operation step.

    If you are entering an intraoperation move, the To Operation step can be any intraoperation step before or after the current intraoperation step.

    Moves into the To Move, Scrap, or Reject intraoperation steps of an operation, whether transacted as intraoperation or interoperation moves, complete assemblies at that operation.

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

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

  7. If you selected Move as the transaction type, the Overcompletion check box is enabled. Select the check box to specify over-completion.

    Note: You must select the check box before you enter the over-completion quantity. The transaction quantity must be greater than the quantity at the From operation or the available quantity, and it must be within tolerance levels.

    The Overcompletion check box is disabled if you are performing a return transaction or a reverse move transaction, for example moving assembles from operation 30 to 20 or from the To Move intraoperation step to the Queue intraoperation step. It is also disabled if the From interoperation step is Scrap or Reject.

  8. Enter the transaction Quantity.

    The transaction quantity defaults to either the minimum transfer quantity, the available quantity, or not at all depending on how the TP:Move Transaction Default Quantity profile option is set. See: Profile Option Descriptions.

    If you enter a quantity that is less than the minimum transfer quantity, a warning is displayed but you are allowed to continue. If you selected an alternate unit of measure for the assemblies, you must enter the transaction quantity in the alternate unit of measure.

    If you have the TP:WIP:Move Transaction profile option set to Online processing, you cannot move more assemblies than exist in an operation step. If this option is set to Background processing, however, you can move any number of assemblies, but the quantity is validated in the background. You can correct any errors using the Pending Move Transactions window. See: Processing Pending Move Transactions.

    If you have more than one repetitive schedule released for a specified assembly, the system displays the aggregate quantity of these schedules and allocates quantities across schedules using a FIFO (first in-first out) algorithm. Thus transactions against the oldest repetitive schedules are processed first.

  9. 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 and time or less than the release date of the job or the release date of the earliest valid repetitive schedule. Valid repetitive schedules have statuses of Released or Complete.

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

  11. 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.

  12. If Oracle Quality is installed and one or more qualified mandatory collection plans exist, Oracle Quality is invoked and the Find Collection Plans window appears. If no mandatory collection plans are found you can optionally invoke Oracle Quality by choosing the Quality button from the toolbar or the Enter Quality Results option from the Tools menu. See: Entering Quality Results for Move Transactions.

  13. Choose the Transact button.

arrow icon   To scrap assemblies:

  1. See: Scrapping Assemblies.

arrow icon   To add an operation and move assemblies into this operation:

  1. Enter a From operation Sequence number.

  2. Enter a From operation Step.

  3. Enter a To operation Sequence number for the new operation.

  4. Enter an operation Code or Department for the new operation sequence.

  5. Enter a To operation Step for the new operation.

  6. Follow steps 6 through 11 above.

  1. See: Backflushing Pull Components.

arrow icon   To charge manual resources:

  1. Choose the Resources button. See: Charging Resources with Move Transactions.
