Register Unplanned Output

Article08/02/20232 min read

During the execution of a production order, if unplanned output occurs, an additional production order line should be created to account for this unexpected output. With the Process Manufacturing extension, you can post these unexpected outputs. Using the Shop Floor Production (SFP) Power App, you can register this unplanned output. It is only allowed to add new lines for item/ variant combinations that are set up as Unplanned Output Item and Variant in the table Unplanned Output and Consumption Setup. This information will be sent via an API to the SFP app.

Note

The Unplanned Output is only visible in the last routing line of the Production Order. So, you can select an Unplanned Output only from the last Work Center.

  1. Select the appropriate Work Center.
  2. Select the desired production order number.
    You can view the Output items and Co-Products.
  3. Select the Output button.
  4. Select the Register output button.
    A new screen opens.
  5. Select the Item No. dropdown menu to choose the desired Unplanned Output item. You can enter the required quantity to create the unplanned output line to start output registration.

Here, you can view the original Output item and the Unplanned Output item. The Unplanned Output item can be set up in Business Central.

  1. In the Quantity field and enter the desired input quantity.
  2. Enter the Lot No. (It may be filled in automatically.)
  3. Select Save. You can also register the Co-Product by following the above steps.

This action registers the Unplanned Output item and it can be seen in Business Central as well.

Note

While selecting the unplanned output item lines from the drop-down menu, the lines display the line number as zero. You can create the Production Order Line for the unplanned item by selecting the line and adding the required quantity in the Quantity field.

You can now register the output for the newly created unplanned output line.
