Confirming a single phase

To enter a confirmation at phase level, proceed as follows:

  1. Select the menu option Confirmation ® Enter for phase ® Time ticket or Time event.
  2. Specify the phase you want to confirm:

    3. – Enter the completion confirmation number, or the order number, and phase number. This identifies the phase to be confirmed.

    – If you enter only the order number, the system lists the operations and phases contained in the order. Select the phase you want to confirm.

  3. Specify which data you want to confirm (for example, dates).

    4. You have three possibilities:

    – Select the menu option Goto and the corresponding screen:

    ® Quantity/activity
     ® Dates
     ® Personnel data
     ® Qty/Activity/Forecast

    – Press ENTER.

    The system automatically branches to the screen which is specified in the screen control (Parameters ® Variable parameters).

    – Select the menu options Goto ® Actual data.

    You can now enter quantity/activity and personnel data in the same screen.

  4. Choose between final confirmation and partial confirmation.

    5. – If you want to confirm data for a phase that is only partially processed, select the indicator Partial confirmation.

    – If you want to confirm data for a phase that is finished, and you wish to simultaneously clear any open reservations for the phase, mark the indicator Clear open reservs.

    You can also switch between partial/final confirmation via the menu options Parameters ® Variable parameter.

    A partial confirmation can be especially useful if you work with very large lots.

  5. Enter the data you want to confirm.

    6. If not all the fields which you need for completion confirmation are available on the screen, you can reach the required fields or the required screens via the function keys or via the menu.

  6. If required, press the function key Material overview to check or change any goods movements that are to be posted with the confirmation.
  7. Save your completion confirmation.

Confirming several phases

For collective entry, proceed as follows:

  1. Select the menu options Confirmation ® Enter ® For phase ® Collective entry.
  2. In this screen, you can enter a new completion confirmation in each line. Enter the relevant confirmation numbers and the data you want to confirm. Each line represents one confirmation and is assigned a separate confirmation counter.
  3. Save your confirmation.

The activities of collective confirmations are calculated using the confirmed quantity and the planned standard values.
