Registration of input

Article09/17/20242 min read

You can register the input for the production order in the Shop Floor Production. The Input page displays all the items from the BOM associated with the production order.

Select the Input cues on the production order.
This cue provides the percentage of the input items registered for the production order and flushing method associated with it.

The flushing method is configured for items on the Item Card page and is applied from the production order component lines. It is broadly grouped as Manual and Automatic. The number of items with manual flushing method registered out of total number are displayed. Only the items with manual flushing method can be used in input registration.

The automatic flushing method includes Backward, Forward, Pick + Forward, and Pick + Backward. As these are not used in input registration, the number of available items with the respective flushing method are displayed.

The Input page displays the following fields:

FieldDescription
DescriptionSpecifies the description of the item.
Bin CodeSpecifies the bin code associated with the production order component line.
RemainingSpecifies the remaining quantity of the item after registering the input. This is the difference between the Planned and Registered field values. When the registered value is greater than the planned value, the remaining field is updated as 0.
UOMSpecifies the unit of measure code based on the value of the Item Card page.
ProgressSpecifies the progress of the production order as a percentage. The percentage is calculated by dividing the registered value by the planned value and then multiplying the result by 100.
PlannedSpecifies the quantity of the item configured in the Quantity per field on the Production BOM page. This value is multiplied by the Quantity field on the respective production order.
RegisteredSpecifies the quantity of items registered on the Input page through the Input action.

When you select the ALTERNATIVE action, an Add Alternative Item dialog opens where you can add an alternative item for the items that are displayed on the Input page. You can also mention the quantity of the alternative item directly on the Input page.

This is applicable only when the Aptean Process Manufacturing extension is used in conjunction with the Aptean Shop Floor Production extension.

You can perform registration of the input by selecting the Input action. You can also click any line on the Input page to perform the register input function.

Note

You can perform the Input action only when the status of the selected production order is set to Production.
