Road Map: Picking Confirmation

Use the Picking Confirmation (MPK) program to pick all components required for a manufacturing order, partially pick component sets, and change manufacturing order information. When you click Component, you can add a component to a manufacturing order, change component quantities, pick selected components, substitute components, and close a component short. See Background for more information.

Before you run this program each time

You should run these programs in this sequence:

  1. Manufacturing Order Maintenance (MIM) to enter a manufacturing order and optionally obligate and pick components.

OR

Requisition Maintenance (IRM) to create a requisition and release a manufacturing order.

OR

Consolidate Manufacturing Requisitions (MOCR) to release multiple manufacturing requisitions to create a single manufacturing order.

OR

Planned Order Maintenance (MOP) to enter planned orders, and then Order Release Preparation (MPR) and Order Release Selection (MRR) to release the orders.

OR

Sales Order Maintenance (OE) to enter a sales order and generate a manufacturing order for:

    • A make-to-order item (the Item code field in the Enterprise Item Maintenance (IM) program that matches the Item code for immediate supply option in System Options Maintenance (XM) (Inventory Control Options))

    • A subassembly (the Item code field in the Enterprise Item Maintenance (IM) program for the item and its components matches the Subassembly release type option in System Options Maintenance (XM) (Manufacturing Options)

    • A configured product that requires assembly

    • An item you make is not in inventory, the order entry operator clicks Manufacture while using manual obligation, and the Disable mfg order firewall option in System Options Maintenance (XM) (Manufacturing Options) is selected

  1. Shop Paper Print Queue (MSPPM) to process the print queue.

OR

Shop Paper Print (MSP) to print or reprint shop paper for a specific manufacturing order.

Note
The Shop paper release time option in the System Options Maintenance (XM) program (Manufacturing Options) determines when you can print shop paper. If set to S, you must create a shipment (pick components).

  1. (Conditional) Manufacturing Order Auto Processing (MAP) to obligate components and create shipments.

Before you run this program the first time

You should run these programs:

  • (Optional) User Options Maintenance (UOPT) to set the Allow barcoded shipment entry? option for all or selected users in a branch or click Prog opts in this program to set the option for a specific user.

  • System Options Maintenance (XM) (Manufacturing Options) to set the Shop paper release time and Substitution allowed on mfg orders? options for your manufacturing branch.

  • System Options Maintenance (XM) (Enterprise Options) to select a date display format for your enterprise, Branch Maintenance (TBM) to select a date display format for your branch, or User Maintenance (UIM) to select a date display format for an individual user.

  • Bill of Material Maintenance (MPS) to enter a bill of material for the parent item and enter substitutes for components.

  • Configured Product Maintenance (MBM) to enter a bill of material for a configured product.

  • Routing Maintenance (RTM) to enter operation sequences for a parent item.

  • Item Substitution Maintenance (ISM) to enter substitute items.

  • User Maintenance (UIM) to set up user records.

  • Output Device Maintenance (XDM) to set up the output devices that you plan to use.

  • Date-Output Device Maintenance (ZE) to select your default output device and set whether you can override that device.

After you run this program

You will most likely run these programs in this sequence:

  1. (Conditional) Manufacturing Order Picking Register (MPKJ) to print a listing of components picked, and update costs and the general ledger if you have inventory interfaced to GL.

  2. WIP Movement (WIPM) to enter good pieces, scrap parents or components, and update labor costs.

OR

Labor Entry (LLE) to record regular and overtime hours, enter good pieces, and scrap parents or components.

OR

Labor Import (LEI) to import regular and overtime hours, good pieces, and scrapped parents from an ASCII file.

  1. (Conditional) WIP Register (WIPR) to print the WIP Movement Register and update the general ledger if you have inventory interfaced to GL.

OR

Labor Entry Register (LPR) to print a list of labor entries and update the entries to the general ledger.

  1. Receiver Maintenance (IRC) to receive the items into your branch, or into your stockroom if you are using direct-to-stock receiving.

    AND conditionally

    Receiving and Inspection (IRI) to enter inspection results for items that require inspection.

  2. (Conditional) Rejected Material Disposition (MRB) to select the disposition of rejected materials or finished goods.
