| Serialized items on the shop floor - automatic status handling |  |
| If the As-Built Status Handling field in the Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session is set to Automatic, work on a production order automatically results in status changes of the involved serialized end items. In other words, if you deal with serialized items in the production order process, the status of the serialized items automatically changes if you perform actions on the items, for example, completing, rejecting, or recalling the items. You can view the status of the serialized items in the Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000) session. If you work in the following sessions on production orders, the status of serialized items can be affected: Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000) Report Orders Completed (tisfc0520m000) Using the Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000) session Report items as completed If you want to report one or more items as completed for a specific production order on the last operation of the production order, and the As-Built Status Handling field in the Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session is set to Automatic, take the following steps: Start the Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000) details session. Enter the quantity that you want to report as completed on the operation in the Completed field: If you want to report only one serialized item as completed, you can also enter the serial number in the Serial Number field. If you want to report more than one end item as completed, you must enter that quantity in the Completed field, but you cannot indicate specific serial numbers. If you want to report a quantity of serialized items as completed for a specific lot or a specific effectivity unit, you can enter the lot number or the effectivity unit in respectively the Lot Code field and the Effectivity Unit field. Click Save. If you start the Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000) session, you can see that the status of the completed items has changed from Created to Assigned. If you completed one item, and you indicated the serial number, that specific item has the Assigned status. If you completed more than one item, a number of serialized items equal to the completed quantity has got the Assigned status. The sequence of the serialized items in the Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000) session determines which serialized items became Assigned. Only items with the Created status can be changed to Assigned. Serialized items with statuses other than Created were skipped, and did not become Assigned. If you completed serialized items for a specific lot or a specific effectivity unit, only the items with this lot number or effectivity unit have the Assigned status. Reject items You can reject serialized items on all operations, not only on the last operation. If the As-Built Status Handling field in the Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session is set to Automatic, to reject one or more items for a specific production order, take the following steps. Start the Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000) details session. Specify the rejected item or rejected items in one of the following ways: Enter the quantity that you want to reject on the operation in the Rejected field To reject a item, type the serial number in the Serial Number field. Click Save. If you start the Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000) session, you can see that the status of the rejected items is Rejected. Note You can only reject serialized items in the Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000) details session. You cannot reject serialized items on the production order level, that is, in the Report Orders Completed (tisfc0520m000) details session. Only if a production order has no operations can you use the Report Orders Completed (tisfc0520m000) details session to reject items. Note You can enter a serial number in the Serial Number field, but you can also determine the item's lot and effectivity unit in respectively the Lot Code and the Effectivity Unit field. Using the Report Orders Completed (tisfc0520m000) session Report items as completed Recall items from the warehouse Report items as completed If you want to report one or more items as completed in the Report Orders Completed (tisfc0520m000) details session, and the As-Built Status Handling field in the Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session is set to Automatic, take the following steps: Start the Report Orders Completed (tisfc0520m000) details session. If you report only one item as completed with a specific serial number, you can enter the serial number in the Serial Number field. If you want to report more than one serial number as completed, you must enter that quantity in the Additional Qty to Deliver field. You cannot specify the serial numbers. If you are not finished yet, and you want to report other quantities as completed later on, click Save. If you do not want to complete a quantity in a later stage, select Completed in the Order Status field, and then click Save, the production order status changes to Completed, and you can no longer report other quantities as completed. If you start the Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000) session, you can check the statuses of the serialized items. Recall items from the warehouse If you want to recall one or more items from the warehouse for a specific production order, and the As-Built Status Handling field in the Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session is set to Automatic, take the following steps: Start the Report Orders Completed (tisfc0520m000) details session. Enter the item quantity that you want to recall as a negative quantity in the Additional Qty to Deliver field. Note that you cannot recall serialized items if one of the other items still has the Assigned status. Click Save. Check in the Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000) session that the order status of items that were recalled changed from Received in Warehouse to Assigned. Order distribution of unit-effective items Generally, if an item is unit effective, you need the Order Distribution (tisfc0105m000) session to handle the order quantities. However, for a serialized unit-effective item, you can skip the Order Distribution (tisfc0105m000) session. To maintain effectivity units for serialized items, you can use the Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000) session. Note that you can use the Order Distribution (tisfc0105m000) session to view the quantities for unit effective items.
