This screen allows you to enter or change the routing steps defined for an JIT Part.  It lists all the primary operation steps (as well as comments and secondary/ alternate operations, if so selected on the Function Select screen) currently defined for the part number within the given plant.

There are two ways to add or change operation steps:

o  Using a workline to enter/change/delete a line.

o  Using a detail screen for a selected line.  Using the workline allows you to see all operations while entering the information.  Using the detail screen allows you to enter some additional fields.

Using the Workline:

1.  Type the sequence number and the maintenance code (A for add, U for update of operation or comment, and C for addition of a comment record).  A workline for the data will appear (To add a new operation or comment, do not enter a new sequence number, but just the maintenance code:  operation number entered will automatically insert the line correctly.  To change or delete a line, enter the sequence number for the line and the proper maintenance code).

2.  A workline will be displayed allowing you to enter fields, change existing fields, or confirm deletion for the line.

3.  Make your additions/changes and press ENTER.

The fields displayed on the workline are documented in a separate help document.  This help text explains the header fields and the display-only fields shown for each existing line of the routing.

If a MAC-PAC Warning message appears stating that the Part Master batch quantity field is not equal to the routing file record's batch quantity for a given part-operation step relationship (highlighted lines), then that record (line) needs to be maintained by simply "changing" the line (pull the line down in change mode and hit enter) and updating the routing structure record with the new Part Master batch quantity.  This warning is intended to make users aware that the piece rate per batch relationship may no longer be valid. In that case, the piece rate field should also be changed to reflect the true "batch rate" for the given operation step.

 

Using the Detail Screen:

1.  Type the sequence number on the bottom of the screen.

2.  Press F7 to display the detail screen.

PLANT

Display only.  The plant where this routing is used.  It was entered on the Function Select screen.

PART NUMBER

Display only.  The item that is manufactured using this routing.  It was entered on the Function Select screen.  The corresponding part description was retrieved from the Part Master File.

BATCH QUANTITY

Display only.  The standard quantity of the item that is produced in each production run.  This number is expressed in the stockkeeping unit of measure.  It was retrieved from the Part Master File.

SEQUENCE NUMBER

Display only.  The unique number assigned by the system to each routing line.  It is used to specify which line you want to maintain.

OPERATION NUMBER

Display only.  The operation number uniquely identifies each step and defines the sequence in which the steps are performed within the routing.  The first three digits define the operation number.  (No line numbers are used for JIT operations, since JIT parts cannot have alternate routings.)

COMMENT LINE NUMBER

Display only.  For comment lines, this number identifies the sequence used to display multiple comments for the same operation.

OPERATION TYPE

Display only.  This field is always 8 for JIT parts.

WORKCENTER NUMBER (W/C NO)

Display only.  The workcenter where the operation is performed.  Workcenter numbers greater than or equal to 900 represent miscellaneous cost workcenters.

LABOR HOURS

Display only.  The standard number of labor hours that contribute to the cost of each part (or each batch of parts) produced at this workcenter.  Also determines load placed on labor paced workcenters defined on JIT operation steps.

MACHINE LOAD

Display only.  The standard amount of machine load that contributes to the cost of each part (or each batch of parts) produced in this workcenter.  Also, determines the amount of load placed on this workcenter (if mach. paced) for each part (or each batch) on a given day or days, depending upon the length of the offset days parameter.  This is considered a run time per unit/batch parameter.

OPERATION DESCRIPTION

Text describing the operation.  It appears on shop paperwork and various inquiries and reports.

OPERATION LEADTIME/OPERATION OFFSET DAYS

Display only.  For outside/miscellaneous cost workcenters (between 900 and 998 inclusive), the operation lead time represents how much of the total lead time of the part is contributed by this operation.  For JIT operations routed through standard workcenters, the operation offset days defines which days (back-scheduled from the due date of the last day of a flow schedule for the current part/ revision level) load will occur (either Labor Hours or Machine Load) on for the operation's workcenter.  It is necessary information for those who wish to perform Capacity Planning on individual group technologies/ machines within or on  JIT cells or lines.

ENGINEERING CHANGE ORDER - IN

Display only.  Identifies the ECO that brings an operation into effectivity.  If entered, must be defined on the ECO file.

EFFECTIVITY-IN DATE

Display only.  For IN engineering changes, the first date the operation should appear in the part's routing.  The date is system maintained if Reference File category N38 is 1 or 2.

ENGINEERING CHANGE ORDER - OUT

Display only.  Identifies the engineering change that causes the operation to be removed from the routing.  If entered, must be defined on the ECO file.

EFFECTIVITY-OUT DATE

Display only.  For OUT engineering changes, the date after which the operation should be removed from the part's routing.  The date is system maintained if Reference File category N38 is 1 or 2.

MACHINE NUMBER

Display only.  Any machine needed at this operation.

TOOL NUMBER

Display only.  Any tooling required for this operation.

COMMAND KEYS

Enter - Update changes.  If you press a command key to move to another program before pressing Enter, your changes will not be updated.

F2    - Display a window where a fast path option or mnemonic can be entered.  Fast path allows the next menu selection to be made directly from this screen.  When the window is displayed, pressing F3 will remove it.

F3    - Display Manufacturing Engineering Menu to select another option.

F4    - Display a list of values for the field where the cursor is positioned.  If you select one of the items from the list, it will be returned to the application screen.

F7    - Display the detail screen for the operation line currently being worked on.

F9    - Enter the Multi-Line Routing Inquiry.

F10   - Return to Function Select screen without updating changes.

F11   - Fast Path directly to the Standard Routing Maintenance Detail screen for the given operation.

F12   - Enter the Bill of Documents Maintenance program.

F13   - Enter the Bill of Documents Inquiry program.

F15   - Redisplay screen before most recent changes.

F20   - Directly call the Workcenter Inquiry program.  When exiting the W/C Inquiry, control will be passed back to this screen.

F24 -   Display additional command keys available from this screen.
