Production related tasks

Pre production tasks

The purpose of pre production tasks is the technical support and clearance of ready to go, before release of a Production work order (PWO).

  • Distribute and follow up on questions and verifications that should be cleared before ready to go.

  • Manually added to the structure for Sales order items (COAITEM), also possible before Production work orders (PWO) are created.

  • Examples of use:

    • Are new tools required?

    • Is the risk acceptable?

    • Is quality control level set?

    • Any deviations related to the Product (ART) not cleared?

  • Functionality available/relevant in applications:

    • Tasks (TASKS)

    • Production work orders (PWOMENU)

    • Production work order (PWO)

    • Work order operation (WOO)

    • Assign pre-production tasks to orders (PPTASKS)

    • Operators list of production work order operations (RWOO)

    • List of work order operations for production resource category (RECWOO)

Production tasks

Technical support and clearance for ready to start for specific production Operations (OPR).

  • Operations (OPR) can require the preparation of tools or machine software. Ensuring availability when the Operation (OPR) is ready to start.

  • Templates and rules creates tasks for new or modified work orders (operations). Or manually created.

  • Examples of use:

    • Mastercam software for CNC

    • Technical drawing

    • Material sign-off

    • Welding procedure

  • Functionality available/relevant in applications:

    • TASKS

    • PWOMENU

    • PWO

    • WOO

Scheduled production tasks

The purpose of the scheduled production tasks is to create either time (date) driven tasks connected to Operations (OPR) or event driven tasks connected to the completion of specific Operations (OPR).

  • Inform customer/other about planned start for a specific operation or when an operation is completed.

  • Inform internally when an operation is completed to efficiently initiate parallel processes.

  • Scheduled tasks can be initiated manually at the operation elements of the Production structure (KITDOC).

  • Examples of use:

    • Notify customer/other for inspection time.

    • Notify internally that the Production work order (PWO) has reached a point where the customer can be invoiced.

    • Functionality available/relevant in applications:

      • Planned operations for production work order (PWOPLO)

      • Orders overview (OOV)

      • Structure operation item (KITDOCOPRITM)
