| # Reference numbers in production synchronous schedules Reference numbers are used in conjunction with external supply methods. Therefore, the Reference Number field remains blank in the case of internal supply methods. The functionality of reference numbers replaces that of call-off IDs. Reference numbers are displayed in the following sessions: Line Station - Assembly Part Supply Transfer (Batch) (tiasc8510m000) Assembly Part Supply Transfer (SILS) (tiasc8520m000) Order-controlled SILS In order-controlled supply in line sequencing (SILS), a unique reference number is generated for every unique combination of: line station + VIN number + assembly kit ID. This reference number is sent together 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. Example
PART | KIT | BATCH SIZE
--- | --- | ---
A, B | K1 | 2
C | K2 | 2
LINE SEQUENCE | ORDER | PART
--- | --- | ---
100 | A01 | A, B, C
101 | A02 | A
102 | A03 | B
When creating the part requirements, ERP Enterprise sees that there is enough of part A for orders A01 and A02 because the kit for part A has a batch size of 2. There is also enough of part B for orders A01 and A03. The parts message that ERP Enterprise creates looks like this:
PART | ORDER | REFERENCE NUMBER
--- | --- | ---
A | A01 | R01
A | A02 | R02
B | A01 | R01
B | A03 | R03
C | A01 | R01
Because order A01 consists of parts A, B, and C, these parts (for this order) have the same reference number (R01). Order A02, which consists of part A, has a unique reference number, as does order A03, which consists of part B. Order-controlled batch 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 ASN that is sent back from the supplier. The reference number can also be used when receipts are entered. Example
PART | KIT | BATCH SIZE
--- | --- | ---
A, B | K1 | 2
C | K2 | 2
LINE SEQUENCE | ORDER | PART
--- | --- | ---
100 | A01 | A, B, C
101 | A02 | A
102 | A03 | B
When ERP Enterprise calculates the requirements for order A01, the parts message that is generated looks like this:
PART | ORDER | REFERENCE NUMBER | BALANCE QTY.
--- | --- | --- | ---
A | A01 | R01 | 1
B | A01 | R02 | 1
C | A01 | R03 | 1
When ERP Enterprise calculates the requirements for order A02, the parts message that is generated looks like this:
PART | ORDER | REF | TRANSFER QTY. | BALANCE QTY.
--- | --- | --- | --- | ---
A | A01 | R01 | 2 | 0
B | A01 | R02 | 2 | 1
C | A01 | R03 | 2 | 1
When ERP Enterprise calculates the requirements for order A03, the parts message that is generated looks like this:
PART | ORDER | REF | TRANSFER QTY. | BALANCE QTY.
--- | --- | --- | --- | ---
A | A01 | R01 | 2 | 0
B | A01 | R02 | 2 | 1
C | A01 | R03 | 2 | 1
A | A03 | R04 | 2 | 1
