Create Structure from Configuration Evaluation
Explanation
This activity is used to create a DOP structure from a configuration evaluation.
I.e., by evaluating the configuration rules defined for the BOM/routing.
To create a DOP structure from a configuration evaluation with the
possibility to manually select the structure/routing revision, click
Create Structure and then Create DOP Structure.
To create a DOP structure from a configuration evaluation using the
revisions valid on the DOP header due date, click
Create Structure and then Create Structure.
Prerequisites
- The DOP header part must be configurable and have a configuration attached.
- The DOP
header must be in status Created.
- An interim order structure must not exist for the DOP header.
System Effects
- DOP orders are created in a structure according to the
configuration evaluation.
- The status of the DOP orders will be Unreleased unless Auto Release
has been enabled in the Settings
section on the Details tab on the DOP Header
page. In that case, the status will be Released. Releasing a DOP
order means generating a shop order or a purchase requisition for the
DOP order.
- When releasing pegged project specific DOP orders, the system will generate
project specific shop orders or purchase requisitions/purchase orders dependent
on the part type. These orders will be received into project inventory.
- A valid routing revision and buildable routing alternate will
be added for each DOP order. If no buildable or plannable routing alternate
exist for the part a DOP log is created, but the creation of the structure
will continue. If the routing is serial effective
and no serial numbers
are reserved for the DOP order a DOP log is created, but the creation of
the structure will continue.
- The due dates and start dates are set for each DOP order in the
structure. For
information on how this is done, see Plan DOP Orders.
- If the site has Schedule and Create Load for DOP Order
Operations enabled, machine and labor load of source
Scheduled DOP are created for the DOP order operations based on the quantity remaining to supply
on the DOP orders, plus the planned supply scrap for that quantity. This
applies for the DOP orders with manufactured parts that have status
Unreleased and Create Pegged set to
Pegged Orders.
