Component Traceability Rules 
This group controls how component traceability is implemented at a site:
System Rule | Description |
|---|---|
Allow Assembly Qty As Required | If set to true, displays the Assembly Qty As Required checkbox on the Component Details screen of BOM Maintenance. Can override at: site |
Allow Multiple Time-Based Assembly | If set to true, an SFC number with time-based components whose entire quantity has been assembled at an assembly operation and time-based resource and then removed using As Built Configuration, can be assembled again when the SFC number is processed at the assembly operation and time-based resource again. The component information that is loaded on the slot is associated with the SFC number using the Component Time Log (COMP_TIME_LOG table). Can override at: site |
Allow Non-BOM Components on Add | If set to true (default), allows operators to add non-BOM components when they assemble SFC numbers through As-Built Configuration. Can override at: site, material, operation, user Related rule: NC Allows Non-BOM Component and Ref Des (see Nonconformance Rules) |
Allow Vers. Change on Purchased Components | If set to true (default), allows users to change the value in the Version field for a purchased component on the Assemble Component and As-Built Configuration screens. Can override at: site |
BOM Name Equals Material Name | If set to true, displays only routing operations in the assembly/disassembly operation browse list of BOM Maintenance for the routing assigned to the material in Material Maintenance. If no routing is assigned to the material, this browse screen displays only current versions of all operations. Can override at: site |
Display Auto Fill Components | If set to true (default), displays automatically filled components in the Component Data table during assembly. Can override at: site |
Enable Pegging on Release | Associates a subassembly with the top-level shop order during release activities. If set to true, creates a link between the subassembly and the top-level shop order during release activities. Can override at: site, material
This rule is used with the Create Subassys on Shop Order Release system rule (see Order Rules). End of the note. |
Enforce Pegging on Consumption | true: Allows only the associated component subassembly that was released with the top-level SFC number to be assembled during Genealogy activities (Assembly Point or As-Built Configuration) false (default): Allows any component subassembly to be assembled onto a top level SFC number during genealogy activities (Assembly Point or As-Built Configuration) Can override at: site, material
This rule is used with the Create Subassys on Shop Order Release system rule (see Order Rules). End of the note. |
Max Component Usage Count | The number of times a user can add an inventory ID/SFC number to an assembly during discrete assembly only. Can override at: site, BOM component, material You can override this value at the BOM component level in BOM Maintenance and at the material level in Material Maintenance. On the BOM Component Details screen of BOM Maintenance, you can enter a value into the Max Usage as Component field for each component. On the Build tab page of Material Maintenance, you can enter a value into the Max Usage as Component field. The precedence order is as follows: BOM component, material, site. |
Max Component Usage Message | Specifies the message that the system generates when an Assembly Point user attempts to add an inventory ID/SFC number that has exceeded its usage count to an assembly You must define this message type in Message Type Maintenance. Can override at: site |
Ref Des is Required | If set to yes, requires a reference designator to be entered for a BOM component. The reference designator quantity must be equal to the assembly quantity. Can override at: site |
Ref Des Must be Unique | true (default): Prevents users from entering the same reference designator more than once in the same BOM in BOM Maintenance false: Allows users to enter the same reference designator more than once in the same BOM in BOM Maintenance. In addition, this allows operators to specify the same reference designator for the same component at more than one assembly operation. Can override at: site |
Specific BOM Component Version Required | If set to true, requires users to enter a version for each BOM component on the Component Details screen in BOM Maintenance Can override at: site |
Validate Component Usage | true (default): Prevents users from adding an inventory ID that has exceeded its usage count in Assembly Point or As-Built Configuration.
You set the usage count with the Max Component Usage Count system rule. End of the note. false: Does not check whether the usage count for the inventory ID has been exceeded when a user adds an inventory ID to an assembly Can override at: site |
