| # Work Control System In the Work Control System module, the work order preparation, planning, and execution in a maintenance shop or repair shop is handled. Work Control System enables internal maintenance and maintenance on customer owned parts. For maintenance on customer owned parts, Work Control System is fully integrated with the Maintenance Sales Control. Work order Orders that are used to plan, carry out, and control all maintenance on items in a maintenance shop or in a repair shop. A work order consists of at least one work order header, and can have a number of activities that must be carried out on a repairable service item. Material allocations, delivery types, and work order (activity) status The work order material resource lines are created when the work order or work order activity can have the status free planned, released, completed. Subcontracting - Work Order A single company may not deliver the entire range of services. In which case, the company may subcontract the entire service of a product to a subcontractor. In ERP Enterprise, you can enter into a subcontracting agreement with the supplier to carry out the required services as specified in the work order. You must define a Cost or Service item and a subcontractor on the work order to identify that the work order is subcontracted. Templates To ease work/repair order preparation, templates can be used. With the aid of the reference activities, you can compose a routing, which means that reference activities are copied and put in sequence. You can copy this routing to the work order. Work order structure The carrier for work to be implemented in ERP Enterprise Service is the work order. Work order can be created in the following ways: The work order is created on receipt of the to-be-repaired Item, which is triggered by the maintenance sales order. The user can also manually create work orders. The work order can also be generated in a batch for similar items owned by the organization (Internal Items) which are defective. This feature is applicable only when the item is serialized in inventory. Such Work orders are termed as ‘Batch Repair Work Orders’. The batch process generates a work order for each item and work order resource lines are created with the defective serialized items with delivery type ‘Batch Repair’. |
