Production Confirmation (MCE140)

How To

This program allows you to confirm BOM production tickets entered through the Production Entry program. The program also allows users to correct production tickets already confirmed and not updated by the Production Register. The confirmation process involves confirming that a finished BOM item was produced. Once a production ticket is confirmed, it is ready to print on the next Production Register.

The user may access the ticket-by-ticket number or BOM finished item number. If accessing by finished item number, information for entered, printed and confirmed tickets is displayed in summary so the user may select the ticket to confirm.

The summary screen displays the line number, ticket number, status of ticket (E-entered, P-printed or C-confirmed), warehouse produced in, entry date, schedule production date and quantity to be produced.

The ticket number to be confirmed is displayed in a format similar to that used in the Production Entry program. The user enters the number of items produced and the date of actual production and each line-item is displayed.

The user has the option of changing, adding to, or removing line-items from the ticket. The user may also delete the production ticket or stop confirmation at any time. Deleted production ticket numbers may be used again.

EWMS Processing Note

The Production Confirmation (MCE140) program does not allow confirmation of production orders that belong to a Radio Beacon controlled warehouse. That process is done by the upload stock picks and upload stock receipts programs.
