Standard and Integrated PODs
POD Pushbutton Activity	Activity ID	Description
Start	`PR500`	Starts the selected SFC numbers at the entered operation and resource, and displays them as selected in the Active Work list. Validates that the selected resource is in a current state to process product and is not in the Pending status (see Start).
Start	`PR505`	Starts the SFC numbers associated with the entered material at the entered operation and resource, and displays them as selected in the Start by Material Task list. Used for high-volume environments (see Start by Material)
Complete	`PR510`	Completes the SFC numbers selected in the Active Work list and sends them to the next step on the routing. Resets the selected resource from Productive to the new Pending status when the last active SFC number is completed from the resource (see Complete). Note If you complete an SFC number that belongs to a process lot, you must remove it from the process lot first. The POD displays a message stating this. Choose the Complete pushbutton to remove the SFC number from the process lot and send it to the next operation on the routing. End of the note.
Pass	`PR510Q`	Performs a Start and then a Complete transactions (see Pass)
Sign Off	`PR520`	Removes selected SFC numbers from the Active Work list and returns them to the Task list with the In Queue status. Resets the resource from Productive to the new Pending status when the last active SFC number is removed from the resource (see Sign Off).
Data Collection	`DC500`	Displays additional fields in which the operator can enter information, such as room temperature or the thickness of a sample (see Data Collection (DC)) Note When setting up a POD with `DC500`, sequence it after Start (`PR500`) and before Complete (`PR510`). End of the note.
Assembly Point	`CT500`	Collects assembly data for a selected SFC number at selected operations for components to be assembled (see Assembly Point)
Process Lot	`PR560`	Allows the operator to create process lots, and to add SFC numbers to a process lot and remove them from it (see Process Lot)
Serialize	`PR550`	Creates new SFC numbers for a multipiece parent SFC number, such as a panel that the operator has broken apart (see Serialize)
Work Instruction Viewer	`WI500`	Allows the operator to view work instructions You must set up work instructions in the system before users can view them (see Work Instruction Viewer).
SFC Report	`TR500`	Displays information about the selected SFC numbers (see SFC Report)
Log NC	`NC500`	Allows the operator to log nonconformance codes against one or more selected SFC numbers (see Log NC and NC Client Maintenance)

Change SFC Labor Charge Code	`LT250`	Changes the labor charge code of one or more SFC numbers Note You cannot change the SFC LCCs of SFC numbers if you enter a shop order number in the SFC field in the POD. You must enter a process lot number or select multiple SFC numbers. End of the note.
Simplified Log Primary NC	`NC515`	Configures the Fast Barcode Interface (see Configuring Fast Barcode Interface)
ECO Processing	`SU610`	Executes the engineering change order (ECO) process for a selected SFC number at the selected operation (see Engineering Change Order (ECO)) You can change the following settings for the `ADJ_ORIG_SO_ BUILD_QTY_DOWN` rule for this activity: `TRUE` (default): Adjusts the original shop order build quantity down to the number of SFC numbers affected by the ECO once the ECO is activated `FALSE`: Does not adjust the original shop order build quantity down when the ECO is activated
Transfer Work	`LT390`	Signs off the active SFC numbers from the primary operator's Active Work list and transfers them to the Active Work list of the other operator who has been labored on

Rich PODs
POD Pushbutton Activity	Activity ID	Description
Start	`PR500_RICH`	Starts a selected SFC number at selected operation to indicate that the SFC number is being actively worked on the shop floor
Complete	`PR510_RICH`	Completes a selected SFC number at selected operation to indicate that the SFC number has completed processing and is ready to be worked at the next operation Note If other users are currently working on the same operation of an SFC number, the Rich POD displays a message stating this and lets you choose whether to labor them off and complete the SFC number, or to cancel completing the SFC number. Choose OK to labor off the other users and complete the SFC number. End of the note.
Sign Off	`PR520_RICH`	Places a selected SFC number at selected operations to indicate that the SFC number is no longer being actively worked on the shop floor Note If other users are currently working on the same operation of an SFC number, the Rich POD displays a message stating this and lets you choose whether to labor them off and remove the SFC numbers from the Work List or to cancel laboring them off. Choose OK to labor off the other users. End of the note.
