Processing of the Partial Process Lot

When some SFC numbers in the process lot are not Active at the operation (partial process lot) and the activity rule IGNORE_NOT_ACTIVE is set to YES, then the system acts as follows depending on the CONFIRM_PROCESSLOT_OPTIONS activity rule settings:

If set to CONTINUE, leaves all SFC numbers in the process lot and performs the Signoff action for the selected Active SFC numbers at the operation
If set to REMOVE, removes the selected Active SFC numbers from the process lot and performs the Signoff action for them
If set to CANCEL, cancels the Signoff action and displays an informational message
If left blank, displays a dialog with Continue, Remove and Cancel buttons
If two or more of non-blank settings selected, displays a dialog with the specified settings as action buttons

If the activity rule IGNORE_NOT_ACTIVE set to NO, the system cancels the Signoff action and displays an error message.

Processing of the Partial Shop Order

When the user sings off a shop order where not all SFC numbers are Active at the operation, the system acts as follows:

If the activity rule IGNORE_NOT_ACTIVE is set to NO, the system cancels the Signoff action, and displays an informational message.

If the activity rule IGNORE_NOT_ACTIVE is set to YES, the system leaves all of the SFC numbers in the shop order and proceeds with the Signoff action.
