Stock > Assembly > Waves > Waves 

This function is used to create, modify or delete an assembling wave.

There are 2 types of assembling waves:

  • type "Assembling" containing the AOs of type "Assembling"
  • type "Disassembling" containing the AOs of type "Disassembling"

Creating a wave makes it possible to regroup AOs of the same type to be able to start the preparation at a later date.
It also makes it possible to start the simulation or the process of the selected wave.
The AOs can be selected if they have the status "1-Pending preparation".

Screen management

Upon entering the function, only those waves that need to be processed are displayed in the left list. Then there are 2 tabs on the right part describing the content of the selected wave.

To display the already selected waves (Status 5-Completed), press Selection, then All.

Creation of a wave

Creating a wave is necessary whenever a AO needs to be launched on preparation.

Step 1. File/New and choice of wave type (Assembling or disassembling) by checking or unchecking the box "Disassembling". AOs are then assigned to the wave. For that purpose, either the operator enters the AO no. in the Number column of the "AO list" tab, or they use the memo codes or they use the left list.

The left list contains the "AO to be prepared" displaying the AOs with status 1, regrouped by increasing date and time of provisional launch.

Step 2. Pressing the button "Create" validates the action and creates the wave. The selected AOs switch from status 1 to status "3-Selected for preparation".

Deleting a wave

A wave can be deleted whenever it has the status "1-Pending launch".

Step 3: Pressing the button "Delete" deletes the wave. The AOs are then disallocated from the wave and switch to their initial status (1). They are then available to be allocated to another wave that already exists or that needs to be created.

Modification of a wave

It is possible to modify a wave by allocating or disallocating AOs whenever the wave has the status "1-Pending launch".

  • To assign AOs to an already created wave, the same procedure as for the creation should be used.
  • To disallocate AOs from an already created wave, the user needs to position themselves on the line to be disallocated and right-click on it to delete the line. Then they need to press the "Save" button.

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Characteristics

 

 

  • field ADDSTC

 

  • Available stock (field STKAVL)

If it is checked, the search on output of the 1st-phase transfer is carried in priority on the assembling locations.

  • Picking stock (field STKPIC)

If it is checked, the search on output of the 1st phase transfer will also be carried in the picking locations.
If it is not checked, the search on output will only be carried in the reserve locations.

  • Transfer incomplete (field TRFIPA)

If it is checked, only the strictly necesssary qty is transferred even if an incomplete container has to be created in stock to that end.
If it is not checked, the component objects are carried out without stock objects being made incomplete. It is thus possible to transfer a quantity larger than the requested quantity;

Directive missions

  • To block (field MSNLOK)

When launching an assembly wave, this parameter is used to force the creation of associated missions with status '6-blocked', thus ignoring the mission setup at site level.

SEEINFO This parameter only applies to missions having an assembly transfer type (TRFBOM). All the other mission types (replenishment) will apply the setup of the missions.

  • Priority (field MSNPIO)

This parameter is used, when launching a wave, to create the associated missions with the priority defined for the wave instead of the priority defined on the mission types (see mission parameters).

SEEINFO This parameter only applies to missions having an assembly transfer type (TRFBOM). All the other mission types (replenishment) will apply the setup of the missions.

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Grid

Numerical sequence automatically assigned by the system upon validation of the AO header. This number features an information specific to the system, all depositors included. This piece of information features a unique access key to an Assembling Order.

  • Reference (field REF)

 

 

  • Planned launch (field EXPLNC)

 

  • Urgent (field URG)

Used to subsequently create urgent AO waves to be handled in priority.

  • Priority (field PIR)

The service priority is used to define an order of priority for the processing of the assembling orders.

  • No. of lines (field BMLNBR)

 

  • field WEI

 

  • field VOL

 

  • Status (field BMHSTA)
