You use this activity to indicate that physical work has been completed on an SFC number. The shop floor personnel submit the Complete
action after all physical work on the product has been completed. This action is recorded as an activity log record for the SFC number and is used to build the genealogy of the product. The activity provides validations at an operation and resource to confirm that the SFC number has completed all steps during the manufacturing at this operation.
The Complete
activity resets the selected resource from Productive
to the Pending
status when the last active SFC number is completed for the resource and the system has received a message from SAP Plant Maintenance
that the resource is now scheduled for preventive maintenance due to a measurement point usage counter. SFC numbers in the queue at an operation that is using this resource, cannot be started until the resource is in a Productive
status.
Note
The Complete
activity changes the routing step status to Complete Pending
for an SFC number in any of the following conditions:
There are open buyoffs for the SFC number
The SFC number is a member of an SFC group whose sampling results are not completed
There is a sample plan applicable for the SFC number at this point
SFC numbers in Complete Pending
status do not move to the next production operation and cannot be completed until any required sampling results are reported (see Sampling) and all buyoffs are closed.
