You can use the SLOT_QTY_DECREMENT
hook point activity to decrement the SLOT_QTY
value based on the SFC BOM quantity for the time-based components under quantity control.
You can use the minimum quantity message and the zero quantity message to trigger slot quantity warnings per the specifications.
This activity can be configured at the operation, resource, or routing step. We recommend that you use it at the resource level.
This activity is commonly used with the POST_START
hook point.
Note
Slot quantity is decremented when an SFC number is started on an assembly operation. If the SFC number is started, signed off, and then started again, slot quantity is decremented again.
