checkbox for each work center you want to release SFC numbers to.
On the System Rule Maintenance
screen, proceed as follows:
Set the Force Release to Work Center
system rule to true
.
Enter the default work center value in the Site Value Column
field of the Default Work Center for Release
system rule.
If you want to allow operators to pull SFC numbers from another work center, set the Allow SFC Pull From Other Work Centers
rule to true

There are no overrides for system rules at the work center level.
When you release demand to the floor, the system places SFC numbers in queue at the first operation on the routing in the default work center.
Note
On the Shop Order Maintenance
screen, users can override the default work center. Additionally, on the Shop Order Release
