 Mass Processing Functions

For planned orders you can only carry out planned order conversion or a material availability check.

Planned Order Conversion

Parameters

  • Order category (production order, process order)

  • Order type

  • Collective orders (convert entire collective order, do not convert collective orders, only process leading orders)

    This setting controls the conversion or leading or dependent planned orders for mutlilevel planned orders.

  • Reread bill of material (yes, no)

Time

Execute function immediately, Execute function with dialog transaction, Execute function in the background, Create function requests

Test

Test function without changes to data

Background documentation 

You should note that no logs are written to the database for planned order conversions. (See Logs )

The following options are available for process and production orders :

Material Availability Check (Also for Planned Orders)

Parameters

  • Reset availability data

  • Scope of the check (no check, individual check per material according to checking group, ATP check for all materials, check for all materials against planning)

  • Firm planned orders

  • Check log (no log, start log at information message, start log at warning message, start log at error message, start log at termination message)

Time

Execute function immediately, execute function in the background, create function requests

Test

No

Release

Parameters

When you release an order, you can decide whether just the order or the collective order to which it belongs is released.

When you release an operation, you have the following options:

  • Release the order to which the operation belongs

  • Release the collective order to which the operation belongs

  • Release an individual operation (all preceding operations or orders for directly produced assemblies must have been released)

  • Release an individual operation and all the preceding operations (all preceding operations or orders for directly produced assemblies are released automatically)

Release control order (order release, collective order release, release of first operation, release of first operation and dependent orders)

Time

Execute function immediately, execute function in the background, create function requests

Test

Yes

Printing of Shop Floor Papers

Parameters

  • Print mode:

    • Reprint for status PRT (printed) and PPRT (partially printed)

    • Original print for PPRT and not printed

  • Spool parameters ( order type, plant, MRP controller ); the selection of the lists for the parameters is made from print customizing. If you select after entering spool parameters, the lists to be printed according to print customizing are displayed.

Time

Execute function immediately, execute function in the background, create function requests

Test

No

Costing

Time

Execute function immediately, execute function in the background, create function requests

Test

Yes

Scheduling

Parameters

You can completely reschedule production or process orders. During forward or backward scheduling you can enter new basic dates or move the basic dates a fixed amount. You can also have the dates determined by scheduling, get them from the sales order, if applicable, or set them to the overall commitment date. You can also change the scheduling type of the order.

In collective orders, all the orders are scheduled. The data entered refers to the leading order.

Rescheduling is subject to the normal restrictions on scheduling. For instance an order that has the status DLV (delivered) cannot be rescheduled.

Time

Execute function immediately, execute function in the background, create function requests

Test

Yes

Generate Capacity Requirements

Parameters

In Customizing for the Availability Check , the generation of requirements can be switched off.

Picking

Parameters

  • Execute goods movements online

  • Execute goods movements in a batch program

Time

Execute function with dialog transaction

Test

No

Set/delete user status

Parameters

Header or operation

  • Status profile (must be identical in the order and in the mass processing function)

  • Status

  • Active/not active

Time

Execute function immediately, execute function in the background, create function requests

Test

Yes

Confirmation

Parameters

  • Enter confirmations

    • Enter order confirmation

      If you work with the option Execute function with dialog transaction , you branch to the individual entry of order confirmations . You then enter confirmations for the selected objects in succession. If you have chosen the options Execute function immediately or Execute function in the background , the confirmations are carried out with the expected values, provided this is set up in Customizing (Customizing for Shop Floor Control , by choosing Start of the navigation path Operations Next navigation step Confirmations Next navigation step Confirmation Parameters Collective Entry/Fast Entry End of the navigation path ).

    • Enter time ticket

      If you work with the option Execute function with dialog transaction , you branch to the collective entry of time tickets. You then enter confirmations for the selected objects in succession. If you have chosen the options Execute function immediately or Execute function in the background , the confirmations are carried out with the expected values, provided this is set up in Customizing (Customizing for Shop Floor Control , by choosing Start of the navigation path Operations Next navigation step Confirmations Next navigation step Confirmation Parameters Collective Entry/Fast Entry End of the navigation path ).

    • Enter time event

      Time events can only be executed with the option Execute function with dialog transaction (see Entering a Confirmation for a Time Event ). You enter confirmations in succession for the selected objects.

  • Entry in error table

    If you have chosen the options Execute function immediately or Execute function in the background , you cannot check for errors online. In this case, you can decide whether confirmations that are not processed are available in Reprocessing Confirmations :

    • No insert in error table

    • No insert in error table for lock situations

    • Insert all unprocessed confirmations in error table

Time

Test

No
