Issue Components Manually

Explanation

This activity is used to manually issue material for the material lines you select. This means that you select the inventory location from which you want to retrieve the material. When you manually issue material, you can control how much is to be issued and from which inventory location. 

When performing a manual issue, the supply code of the shop order material line will be considered when showing the available stock. If the supply code is Inventory Order, only the standard inventory is available to issue. If the supply code is Project Inventory, only the project inventory of the project connected to the shop order is available to issue.

It is also possible to issue materials manually when the shop order Picklist Type is Warehouse and the Material Line Status is Released. It can be done by the enabled right-click functionality on the particular shop order material line. If multiple shop order material lines are selected, all of them should have the Material Line Status as Released to enable the functionality for the right-click option.

You do not have to issue material to begin manufacturing; you also can issue it automatically when you receive the completed parts into inventory. You do not have to reserve material before issuing. However, if catch unit is enabled for the part, the catch quantity should be entered.

If this is the first issue of material for the selected assembly shop order, the system will automatically run the Perform Preliminary Conformance Check function, thereby creating (or updating) the expected on-log with the structure for the level below. For more information on this function, refer the online help file: Perform Preliminary Conformance Check.

This activity contains a Security Checkpoint which can be activated by an administrator. With an activated security checkpoint on a function you will have to authenticate yourself again in order to fulfill the function. Additionally, whenever a security checkpoint is successfully passed a security checkpoint log is written, creating an audit trail of what is done.

Prerequisites

This activity requires that :

• All disassembly and repair orders connected to the assembly shop order must have been completely received.
• Likewise, all disposition orders connected to the disassembly order in a shop visit must have been completely received
  (If an order on the level below is not finished, some serials may not be reserved. This may cause the expected on-log to be updated with incomplete information.)
• The shop order has Released or Reserved status before you can issue material.
• If you want to use multiple units of measure when entering the quantities of parts to issue, an input Unit of Measure (UoM) group must have been connected to the part, and the Manufacturing Usage Allowed check box must have been selected for at least one input UoM (belonging to that input UoM group). 

System Effects

The following system effects will take place as a result of this activity.

• Components are issued from Inventory.
• Each shop material allocation row receives the status Issued.
• The status of the shop order will be set to Started.
• The system will create WIP postings (Work In Progress postings) for the components that have been issued.
• If the shop order was created from Project Delivery, the project delivery structure will be updated with the quantity issued.
• When issuing a pegged line manually, the pegged quantity is reduced by the same quantity that was issued. Note: If more than one supply is pegged to the same demand, you will be prompted to manually adjust peggings prior to performing the issue of material.
• The expected on-log is created [or updated] with the structure for the level below.
• Log entries are generated each time the Perform Preliminary Conformance Check function is run (i.e., either manually or automatically). These entries can be viewed in the MRO Shop Order/Prelim. Conformance Log tab, CAMRO Interim Order Structure/Prelim. Conformance Log tab or the Preliminary Conformance Log window.

Procedure

From the shop order, MRO shop order or disposition shop order:

1. Open the appropriate window and search for the order.
2. Click the Material tab.
3. Select the line(s) for which you want to issue material.
4. Right-click anywhere in the table and then click Manual Issues.
5. If you selected several lines, you can scroll through them in the Order No list.
6. Enter the quantity of the components to issue in the Qty to Issue field of the inventory location from which you want to issue the material. The Qty Required field displays the quantity of the component needed. The Qty Issued field displays the previously issued quantity.
7. Save.

Manual issue of components:

1. Open the Manual Issue Shop Order window.
2. Populate the window or perform a query to retrieve the shop order for which you want to issue material.
3. If the shop order includes several material lines, you can scroll through them in the Order No list.
4. Enter the quantity of the components to issue in the Qty to Issue field of the inventory location from which you want to issue the material. The Qty Required field displays the quantity of the component needed. The Qty Issued field displays the previously issued quantity.

Note: If the Input UoM Group check box on the Manual Issue Shop Order window is selected, you can enter the quantities of parts to issue, in the input unit other than the inventory unit of measure. You can select an input UoM from the Input UoM list, and enter the parameters either in the Input Qty field or in the Input UoM Parameters window. 

Please note that the issue is made in the inventory UoM. The input UoM group only converts the entered input quantity to the inventory quantity. Please refer Select Input UoM and Enter Parameters. 

5. Save.
