Use this program to enter formulation finished items. The Finished Item Entry screen consists of two sections. The upper portion of the screen is called the header portion where general information such as the finished item number, overhead, and labor factors are entered. The lower portion of the screen is called the line-item portion where each packaging item and quantity used to make the formulation finished item is entered.
Once the finished item is set up in this program, production planning can be entered as well as actual production.
You have the option of changing, adding to, removing line-items from or deleting the package item at any time.
A formulation finished item must be set through the Item F/M program and the BOM/FORMULA flag must be set to F before the finished item can be set up. All packaging items (items which are used to produce the formulation finished item) must also be set up through the Item F/M program.
Click field descriptions for information on each field.
MC Side Bar
After you specify a finished item, the MC Side Bar is available from the entry grid to display additional information for packaging items. It is tailored for quick item selection and viewing details about manufacturing habits for the specified item to facilitate efficient manufacturing choices.
