| # Work Order Material Resources (tswcs4110m000) Use this session to add material resources to a work order or to a work order activity. The selected delivery type determines how the materials are allocated to the work order or work order activity. In this session, you can also handle disassembled parts. You can enter: Serviceable parts that are waiting to be assembled. Unserviceable parts for which a follow-up work order must be created. Unserviceable parts that must be replaced. You can add work order material resources to: Work orders. Work order activities. If you link material resources to a work order activity, the resource requirements that you defined in the Reference Activity - Resource Requirements (tsacm2120m000) session, are copied to the Work Control System module. Note If you implemented Financials, the material resources that are used for work order or work order activities are booked as work in process (WIP) costs: For the From Warehouse delivery type, WIP costs are booked based on the issued quantity. The WIP booking is adjusted based on the consumed quantity. For the From Service Stock or the From Kit delivery types, WIP costs are booked based on the consumed quantity.
