You use the PR597 hook point activity at operations where operators or machines cut SFC numbers into pieces, but the SFC numbers continue to be tracked under the same SFC number. Such operations are called DICE operations.
To set up SFC quantity multiplication, proceed as follows:
In Operation Maintenance, define the operation where you want the SFC quantity to be multiplied:
At one of the Start or Complete activity hooks of the operation
At a hook point other than POST_COMPLETE
Set SFC Qty Multiplication to run at one of the Signoff hooks of the operation to set the SFC quantity, since the SFC number did not complete the operation.
In Material Maintenance, for each material you want multiplied, enter in the Qty Multiplier field the number by which you want the material's quantity multiplied.
Repeat steps 1–2 for each operation you want to run the activity.
