Material consumption and output per work center

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 34

A Production BOM hierarchy is low, parent item and raw material. Finished items goes through several operations (Work Centers). On the shop floor is it possible to post a material consumption quantity, a setup time, a run time, an output quantity and a scrap per work center without showing on the production journal card previous and following operations. The material consumption and the output is registered manually. 

The aim is to show on the shop floor daily tasks generated from production orders per work center, register the material consumption and the output per production order.

    Output journal let's you do the process for many orders. This video explains it well: www.youtube.com/watch

    Depending on the flushing method you have not have to do the consumption. If you have manual flushing then you can use the consumption journal. Use this video for an explanation: www.youtube.com/watch

    The functionality of this area in BC has not changed from NAV, at the time of writing, so it's still relevant.

    Thanks Josh,

    The output journal and consumption journal are partly solving my problem. The need is to list somehow, automatically, daily work of the work center. After registering the operations of the production orders work list should updated dynamically.

    The production order routing line table has a status per operation. In essence that is the work to list. The work/machine centre is one of the key pieces of information. I used this table when devising a jet report for a client. They use it at the start of each shift to determine, from a mgt. level, what tasks are to be completed in that shift
