Production Operations Rules

This group of rules controls POD activities and operator interaction with the POD as follows (see Production Operator Dashboard (POD)):

System Rule	Description
Allow Duplicate Operations on Routing	If set to true, allows to use the same operation of any version on a routing multiple times (see Operation and Routing) Can override at: site
Allow SFC Pull from Other Work Centers	If set to true (default), allows an SFC number in queue at a work center to be processed at a different work center (see SFC Number and Work Center) Can override at: site, resource, user
Cancel SFC on Reconfiguration	true (default): Initially selects the Delete SFC checkbox in SFC Reassignment, which deletes the source SFC number after the system completes the transfer false: Initially deselects the Delete SFC checkbox in SFC Reassignment, which deletes the target SFC number after the system completes the transfer Can override at: site
Enable Hold SFCs Checkbox in ECO	If set to true (default), selects the Hold SFCs checkbox in Engineering Change Order Can override at: engineering change order
Maximum SFC In Work	Specifies how many SFC numbers each production operator is allowed to have in work at a given time An override at the resource level specifies how many SFC numbers a production operator who is logged on to that resource in the POD is allowed to have in work at a given time. Default: 0 It allows production operators to have an unlimited number of SFC numbers in work at the same time. Can override at: site, user, resource Note During the Start activity, the system validates the rule setting using the following priority sequence: The system rule setting defined in User Maintenance for the current POD user is compared with the current SFC In Work number for this user. The system rule setting defined in Resource Maintenance is compared with the current SFC In Work number for the resource selected in the POD. End of the note.
Queue SFC at Resource	true: Places SFC numbers in queue at the next resource or work center when the operator completes each SFC number false (default): Places SFC numbers in queue at the next operation when the operator completes each SFC number Can override at: site, operation Note To queue SFC number at a resource, work centers must be used. SFC numbers can be started at a resource (or work center) only if the Allow SFC Pull from Other Work Centers rule is set to false. End of the note.
SFC on Hold Can Be Started	If set to true, allows operators to start SFC numbers that are on hold. Operators may not complete SFC numbers that are on hold, until the hold is released Can override at: site, user, operation
Special Operation Can Pull Active Work	If set to true (default), allows operators at special operations to pull active SFC numbers from a routing operation Can override at: site, operation
Transfer SFC on Reconfiguration	true (default): Initially selects the Transfer Source SFC checkbox in SFC Reassignment, which transfers the source SFC number to the target SFC number false: Initially deselects the Transfer Source SFC checkbox in SFC Reassignment. The target SFC number retains its original SFC number. Can override at: site
