Locations for Follow-up work orders A location that is used for a follow-up work order is a temporary delivery location for dissasembled parts that are processed separately and subsequently must be assembled. If all dissasembled parts are stored in one location, the default work order location is used. This is the delivery location on the initial work order. If one or more disassembled parts are stored in a different location, a follow-up work order is defined for each part. The delivery location of the initial work order is then used as the default delivery location for all related follow-up orders. Follow-up work order are generated from the material resource lines of the initial work order. The delivery type of this work order material resource line is Delivery to Follow-up Work Order. At the same time, a work order material resource line is added to a selected assembly activity that has the Delivery from Follow-up Work Order delivery type. |
