Managing MO’s with OBPMHow to use Browser/PowerLink

technology to revolutionize Manufacturing Orders

Introduction• Order Based Production Management (OBPM)

allows for Manufacturing Order:– Create– Change– Receipt (RM) production– Complete, material & labor– Cancel (status 10 orders)– Close (both Force & Normal)

3

Introduction• All activity is ‘immediate update’ (i.e. no

batches to close and update)

• Templates can minimize the amount of data entry

• MRP and Reorder Report recommendations can be used to create MO’s and/or PO’s

• Can create MO’s from Customer Order line items

4

Introduction• This presentation has been created using

Release 7 (PowerLink)

• Most functions are available at the R6 level also

• This presentation does not address Repetitive Schedules– Schedules are only available for inquiry in

Browser/PowerLink

5

EPDM Impacts (R6 & R7)• When using EPDM, MO’s are kept by site

• Site Master file controls– Work List default values– Order Closeout options– Work Center Analysis report default values

• With PDM, data in Site Master is maintained in PC&C tailoring questionnaire

• Order Close & Purge and WIP Value report is by site

EPDM• Use ‘Site Host Jobs’ to create Work List

reports (can still use Green Screen also)

10

Planner File• OBPM has a ‘Planner’ file to create a code file

of valid planner numbers

11

Planner Numbers• Item Balance (Warehouse) record holds the

default planner number for the item

• All MRP and MPSP reports and work (green screen) screens sort primarily by planner number

• Planner number is copied into Manufacturing Orders for reports and subsets

• One person can be responsible for multiple planner numbers

12

Planner• From the Planner screen, you can display all

MO’s associated with a planner

Questions?

14

Creating MO’s• Template controls initial fields that are

displayed:

15

Creating MO’s• With Cards, there is the ability to:

– Pre-assign batch/lot number– Maintain the component allocations– Maintain operations– Add Miscellaneous Charges– Link MO to CO– If using EPDM, copy an Alternate Processes BOM

and Routing to the MO

16

Alternate Processes• EPDM allows for the creation of multiple

‘processes’ for the same item – i.e. alternate bills of material and/or routings

• When adding the MO, do NOT check the ‘Include Primary BOM’ and ‘Include Primary Routing’ boxes

• ‘Import’ button on Component and Routing cards allow for Alternate Process to be chosen

17

Creating MO’s• When ‘Create Order’ button is pressed, MO is

added (i.e. no ‘Order Release’ required)

• Same files as Green Screen are created:– MOMAST – header information– MODATA – Component Allocations– MOROUT – Operations– MOMISC – Miscellaneous Charges

• Order is added at Status 10 – Open, no Activity

18

MO Status CodesOrder Status

• 10 – Open, Not Started• 40 – Activity Reported• 45 – Material Complete• 50 – Labor Complete• 55 – Both Material &

Labor Complete• 99 - Cancelled

Operation Status• 00 – Inactive, labor cannot

be reported• 10 – Open• 30 – Started• 40 – Operation Complete

19

Material Transactions• At the present time, can only report Production

Receipt transactions through Browser/PowerLink

• When reporting RM transaction, if there are controlled floorstock components, Planned Issue (IP) transactions will be created

• Pick Complete, Planned Issue, Unplanned Issue, Component Return and Scrap transactions are not available

20

Statusing MO’s• Can display open MO’s and PO’s for

component parts allocated to an MO

21

Labor Reporting• Labor is not reported through Browser/PowerLink• Labor can be reported through:

– PC&C – green screen labor entry

– PM&C – Job ON and OF transactions

– PaperLess – feeds PM&C

• Per Operation, report– Time spent: Set-up, Run and/or Machine

– Quantity Complete (good)

– Quantity Scrapped

– Operation Complete

22

Labor History• Browser/PowerLink will display labor history

transactions• PC&C Control File determines if Labor

Reporting history is kept– If using EPDM, Site record holds Labor History

question

• History is kept regardless of what application is used to report labor

• History is stored in files MOTRAN (open MO) and MOHTRN (MO History)

23

24

Production Receipt (RM)• Can report Production Receipt (RM)

transactions with OBPM

• Template controls fields that will be displayed

• If Controlled Floorstock Components exist, they will be issued (IP transactions)

25

26

Backflush Components

27

MO Transaction History• Can display transaction history for an MO:

28

Completing MO’s • Use OBPM to Complete:

– Material (takes MO to status 45 or 55 if Labor has been previously completed)

– Labor (takes MO to status 50 or 55 if Material has been previously completed)

29

Material Complete• If quantity ordered has not been completely

received, ‘Receipt of Material’ card will be displayed to allow RM transaction

• Controlled Floorstock components will be issued

• ‘Material Complete’ card allows for input of Reference, Reason and Date

• If operation scrap has been reported, controlled floorstock components for scrap quantity will be issued

30

Material Complete

31

Labor Complete• From ‘Maintain’ menu, Labor can be reported

as complete

• Reference and Reason codes can be entered

• ‘Incomplete’ Operations (i.e. Operation Status not equal to 40) can be displayed and completed– Any incomplete operations will be taken to status

40 when Labor Complete is reported

32

Labor Complete

33

Labor Complete – Incomplete Oper.

Questions?

35

Select MO for Closeout• Can select MO for either normal or force close

– Status 55 (Complete) orders have normal close– Less than status 55 orders must be force closed

• Must select orders for closeout one at a time– If MO’s are taken to Complete (55) status, may

want to use PC&C green screen to select MO’s for close (more efficient)

• Closeout selection does not change MO status• Can Re-Open an order that has been selected

for close

36

MO Close

37

Production Facility• Can display all MO’s scheduled to go through

a certain Facility

• This is useful if you have outside operations and have made the vendor a Production Facility

• From the Production Facility list, click on a facility, then ‘Display’, then ‘MO Operations Where Used’

38

Facility Where Used

39

MO Operation Where Used

40

Create MO from CO• Can use CO line items to create MO

• Will tie the CO to the MO

• Will use CO quantity and Manufacturing Due Date for MO

• With PTF download, RM transaction for MO will create discrete allocation for CO (must be in a controlled warehouse)

41

Create MO from CO

42

Create MO from MRP• Can Create MO’s from MRP recommendation

file:

43

Create MO from MRP• From MRP Recommendation window, use

‘Customize’ →’Preferences’ to set screen to immediate update

44

Component Availability• From MRP Recommendations, you can:

– Highlight multiple planned MO’s (Control + click)– Check component availability

45

Summary• OBPM provides much easier access and

reporting to MO’s

• Ability to Create, Maintain, Cancel, Receive, Complete and Re-open makes it much more ‘user friendly’ to report against MO’s

• Ability to display MO’s by Planner or Work Center provides better ‘status’ information

• MRP Recommendations provides component availability capability
