| Line Station - Assembly Part Supply Transfer (Batch) (tiasc8510m000) |  |
| Use this session to view transfers of assembly parts for which you have selected Order Controlled / Batch in the Supply System field of the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2510m000) details session. Prerequisites Shop floor warehouses are replenished by means of supply messages, which must be generated and transferred. Therefore, you must at least have generated the supply messages, in the Replenish Shop Floor Warehouse (tiasc8210m000) session. Additionally, you can transfer the messages by means of the Transfer Assembly Part Supply Transfer Messages (tiasc8220m000) session, which can be started from the Specific menu of the current session. When the messages are not yet transferred, the replenishment process is only prepared, but not running. Functionality The current session displays the data that pertains to the replenishment of shop floor warehouses, for parts that are ordered with the Batch supply system. The whole process of replenishment and consumption is registered, so that the data displayed reflect the actual situation. The fields display the parts, required quantities, received quantities, status of the supply messages, and so on. Through the Specific menu you can transfer supply messages that were created, but no yet transferred to the supplier or warehouse, and you can update the balance quantity, that is, the quantity of the batch that is not yet consumed. If you use the batch supply system, the assembly parts are supplied as batches of parts, not as an assembly kit. A batch of parts is ordered anonymously for a range of assembly orders. Every time the Replenish Shop Floor Warehouse (tiasc8210m000) session is run, ERP LN checks which order-controlled batch items must be ordered. When a batch has been completely consumed, a new batch will be ordered. The current session captures the progress of this flow. Parameters Several parameters determine the functionality of this session. The batch quantity required is rounded up to the nearest multiple of the value of the Order Quantity Increment field in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2510m000) details session. The quantity required is calculated using the Quantity to Allocate parameter in the Assembly Control Parameters (tiasc0100m000) session. The method of transfer depends on your selection in the Supply System field of the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2510m000) details session: Warehouse ERP LN generates warehouse transfers from the source warehouse to the shop-floor warehouse. All the parts for one shop-floor warehouse are combined on one warehouse transfer order. Use this option for internal supply. Supplier The Purchase Control module uses this data to generate a purchase schedule call-off to control supply from the supplier to the shop-floor warehouse. Assembly parts from the same supplier are combined on the same purchase schedule. You define the supplier, trigger and so on in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session. Use this option for external supply. Note WIP transfers are only created between different assembly lines. To send orders to suppliers, you can use the Electronic Data Interchange module.

Fields | Description
Line Station | The line station for which you want to view transfers of assembly parts for which you have selected Order Controlled / Batch in the Supply System field of the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session.
TransferOrder/ Position/ Seq. Number | The transfer order number on the warehouse order, or on the purchase schedule. The meaning of the number depends on the supply method that is used: Internal supply The warehouse transfer order that is used by Warehouse Management to transfer materials to the shop floor. External supply The purchase schedule number that is used to order the materials.
Transfer Order/Position | The assembly parts position number on the warehouse order, which is for internal supply, or on the purchase schedule, which is for external supply.
Transfer Done | If this check box is selected, the supply messages are transferred to Warehouse Management or Purchase Control.
Assembly Order | The assembly order that requires the parts.
Reference Number | Reference numbers are used in conjunction with external supply methods. Therefore, this field remains blank in the case of internal supply methods. In order-controlled batch, a unique reference number is created for each material line. The reference number is sent along with the purchase schedules to the suppliers and is also printed on the advanced shipping notice (ASN) that is sent back from the supplier. The reference number can also be used when receipts are entered.
Planned Requirement Date | The date when the parts are required.
Assembly Line | The assembly line on which the parts are required.
Line Station | The line station to which the shop floor warehouse that receives the parts belongs.
Supply Type | Based on the Supply System field of the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session.
Transfer Rejected | If this check box is selected, the supply messages could not be transferred to Warehouse Management or Purchase Control, Check the error messages to find out why the transfer was rejected.
Assembly Part | The assembly part which is transfered.
Transfer Quantity | The quantity of assembly parts that must be transferred from the external supplier or warehouse to the shop-floor warehouse. The batch quantity that is required, is rounded up to the nearest mulitple of the value in the Order Quantity Increment field in the Warehouse - Item (whwmd2110s000) session.
Balance Quantity | The unconsumed portion of a batch. A batch of parts is ordered anonymously for a range of assembly orders. Every time you run the Replenish Shop Floor Warehouse (tiasc8210m000) session, which is usually run with triggers, ERP LN checks which order-control batch items must be ordered. If a batch has already been ordered for the item in question, ERP LN does not order a new batch, but instead consumes the remaining batch quantity. If the batch has been entirely consumed, a new batch is ordered. The balance quantity may decrease when you run the Replenish Shop Floor Warehouse (tiasc8210m000) session.
Quantity Received | The quantity of the purchase order recieved in the shop floor warehouse.
Status | The status of the supply process. The status has either respect to the supply request, or to the required parts. If the supply messages are not yet transferred, or the transfer is rejected, the messages have the Created status. If the supply messages are transferred, the following statuses are possible: Not Received The parts are not yet received in the shop floor warehouse. Partially Received Some of the parts are received, but not all. Received All parts are received. Note Batch supply messages can not have the statuses Canceled or Modified, because ERP LN does not cancel or update batch messages.
