You use this process to transfer SFC numbers to remote or local site (see SFC Number and Site).

Prerequisites

The following data that must exist on the destination site or the record is not loaded:

  • All source site routings/operations except SFC-specific routing

  • Assembly data types

  • NC data types

  • Nonconformance codes

  • All materials whether manufactured or component

  • Labor charge code

  • Disposition function and disposition function status

  • Process lot if the process lot ID is selected to be transferred

  • Shop order if the shop order is selected to be transferred

Process

  1. In Collaboration Link Maintenance, you map the COLLABORATION_SFC_TRANSFER trigger action to the SITE2SITE directive (see Collaboration Link Maintenance).

  2. In System Rule Maintenance, under System Setup, you set the rules Enable SFC Data Transfer and Enable Collaboration Action Messages to true (see System Rule Maintenance).

  3. If you transfer SFC numbers to a remote site, you create the Production transfer site in Site Maintenance (see Site Maintenance).

  4. On the Transfer tab page of the corresponding maintenance activity, you define the level of SFC number transfer (see Defining SFC Number Transfers).

  5. In Export Template Maintenance you can either use one of the default export templates or define your own to define what SFC number data will be transferred to the destination site.

  6. On the POD in Active Work List, you select SFC numbers you want to transfer and choose Complete.

  7. On the POD in SFC Transfer, you verify that the row selected in the table is the destination site to which you want to transfer SFC numbers or choose another row to select a non-default destination site.

Note Note

If there is only one destination site defined, the SFC Transfer plug-in does not open and the SFC number will be transferred to that default site.

End of the note.

Result

Depending on the value selected on any of the Transfer tab pages, when SFC numbers in the shop order have the Done status at the source site, the system acts as follows:

  • If SFC_CONSUME is selected, the system uses the transfer destination Receive checkbox to determine whether the SFC number is automatically placed into the inventory table on the destination site or the SFC number must be manually received and placed into the inventory table using the SFC Receipt activity.

  • If SFC_SPAN is selected, the system uses the Receive checkbox to determine if the SFC number is automatically placed at the first step of a routing on the destination site or the SFC number must be manually received and placed at the first step of a routing using the SFC Receipt activity.

Note Note

If your destination site is remote, you must also physically ship the product the SFC number represents to the destination site.
