Manufacturing > Batch processes > Operation date shift 

This function is used to shift in time the production operation selection.

Only "waiting" operations, scheduled and running on a work centre of the type machine or labor are processed.

If a shift is entered, it is applied to the start date for the operation concerned, the new start date loads the forced start date for the operation.

Each Works Order (WO) concerned by the process is de-scheduled then re-scheduled.

    Screen management

    This function is carried out in two steps:

      Selection if the WOs to be processed

      Result of the process

    Entry screen

    Presentation

    Selection entry

    Here this is the entry of a group of criteria that are used to select the operations to be moved:

    The production site : it is loaded by default with the production site associated with the operator,

    It is possible to choose the status of the WOs to be processed : planned or firm,

    The selection of the start/end range.

    The following must be entered :

    either a shift to be applied in calendar days: the movement can be positive or negative.

    or a new start date.

    It is possible to specify if the operation dates must be forced by maintaining the initial scheduling of the previous and next operations.

    The use of the button is used to start the process.

    Results of the process

    A report on the processing appears when the date shift is complete, it contains the operations that have been changed and their new start and end dates.

    A message warns the user if a selected order could not be processed.

    Fields

    The following fields are present on this tab :

    Selection criteria

    The production site associated with the user is proposed by default. It can be modified by another site authorized for the operator, depending on its authorizations.

     

    Filters

    • Planned work orders (field WOPFLG)

    Select this check box if planned work orders are to be processed. If planned work orders are to be excluded from the run, leave this check box clear.

    • Firm work orders (field WOFFLG)

    Select this check box if firm work orders are to be processed. If firm work orders are to be excluded from the run, leave this check box clear.

    Parameters

    • Shift to apply (field XTRT)

     

    • field PSPUOT

     

    • Change to : (field XDATE)

     

    Start - end range

    • Work order no. (field MFGNUMDEB)

    This field displays the work order number (unique ID).
    This number is automatically or manually generated upon each creation.
    Click the Selectionicon to open the list of work orders (which only includes 'Firm' or 'Closed' work orders) and select a work order.

    • field MFGNUMFIN

     

    Multiple routings can be defined for a single product. Each routing code can be assigned specific management features. These include restriction of the routing to a specific site and to specific areas of functionality (for use in a manufacturing environment, for costing or for capacity planning).

     

    • Routing (field ROUNUMDEB)

    This routing is used in work order management.
    It must be present in a code authorized for the site, with a checked "manufacturing" indicator.

    • field ROUNUMFIN

     

    • Work center (field WSTDEB)

    The planned work center is attached to a work center group. It corresponds to a production resource on which a routing operation is to be carried out.
    It is an entity for which the load needs to be planned and/or the production times need to be tracked.

    • field WSTFIN

     

    • Operation (field OPENUMDEB)

    This field displays the sequence number of this operation.

    The operations in a routing used for manufacturing a product are assigned operation numbers. Each operation number corresponds to a task carried out on a given resource, with given times.

    • field OPENUMFIN

     

    • Start date (field STRDATDEB)

    This field identifies the planned start date of the Work Order.

    • field STRDATFIN

     

    Block number 5

    • Save positions of the last operations (field KPREC)

    If the processing carries out a downstream shift of operations,
    the scheduling may pass on this shift on all previous
    operations or keep the positions already calculated.

    YES/NO indicator


    • Save positions of the next operations (field KSUIV)

    If the processing carries out an upstream shift of operations,
    the scheduling may pass on this shift on all previous
    operations or keep the positions already calculated.

    YES/NO indicator


    • Shift of WOs printed (field EDIFLG)

    Close

     

    Batch task

    This function can be run in batch mode. The standard task FUNMAUTO is provided for that purpose.

    Error messages

    In addition to the generic error messages, the following messages can appear during the entry :

    No works order processed

    This message is displayed if no shift could be carried out.

    No selection entered, do you want to continue?

    Confirmation request if no entry.
