The “Edit Labor Reporting” page appears.

Employee Code

The code identifying the employee who is reporting for production. Mandatory.

 

Press <Enter> key.

 

The system ensures that the employee code should not be blank and should be valid. It also ensures that the shift code cannot be left blank.

 

Help facility available.

The system displays the following:

Employee Name

The name of the employee.

 

Zoom facility available.

Shift

Use the drop-down list box to select the shifts for which the labor times are reported. The system retrieves the shift values from the master along with a blank. The system displays “Blank” by default on launch of the page.

Transaction Date

The transaction date on which the labor reporting is done. Mandatory. The date should be less than or equal to the current date.

 

Press <Enter> key.

 

The system ensures that the transaction date should not be left blank and should be in valid date format. It also ensures that the date should be less than or equal to the current date.

 

Help facility available.

For employee code, transaction date and shift code combination if there exist a record, then the system retrieves the corresponding details in the multiline.

The system displays the following:

Total Duration (Hrs.)

The total amount of time spent by the employee on the resource. Based on the duration available in the multiline, the total duration worked for transaction date is calculated as the sum of the duration specified in the multiline.

Work Order No.

The number identifying the work order for which the labor reporting is done.

 

Press <Enter> key.

 

The system checks the work order number. It should not be blank and should be valid with status either greater than or equal to “Released” or less than or equal to “Finished” status. The login user should have the reporting permission to the "Production Controller" defined in the control unit of the work order or to the department to which the "work order/activity" belongs.

The system validates the work order number by checking whether the details are entered before retrieving it through the get operation. If the details related to employee code and transaction date exist, then the system retrieves those details in the multiline. If none of the records are available, then the system allows inserting new details. If the PP Seq is left blank for the specified work order, then the system retrieves the details for item code, variant and description. The system checks whether the specified PP Seq is valid for the work order and has status greater or equal to “Released” or less than or equal to “Finished”. If the above condition is not satisfied, then the system displays an error message.

For the Work Order and PP Seq combination, the system retrieves the details for activity code, activity description, resource no, description, item code, var, description along with accepted, rejected and scrap qty defaulted to zero. If the lot number exists for the PP Seq, then the system populates the existing lot numbers in descending order along with "New Lot". Otherwise only with "New Lot" are populated. If the specified PP Seq is the last activity of the work order, then the system default the multiline details for warehouse, zone or bin combination.

PP Seq.

The number identifying the activity sequence in the work order process plan.

 

Press <Enter> key.

 

The system checks the work order number. It should not be blank and should valid only with status greater than or equal to “Released” or less than or equal to “Completed” status allowed for reporting. The login user should have the reporting permission to the "Production Controller" defined in the control unit of the work order or to the department to which the "work order/activity" belongs.

For the Work Order and PP Seq combination, the system retrieves the details for activity code, activity description, resource no, description, item code, var, description along with accepted, rejected and scrap qty defaulted to zero. If the lot number exists for the PP Seq, then the system populates the existing lot numbers in descending order along with "New Lot". Otherwise only with "New Lot" are populated. If the specified PP Seq is the last activity of the work order, then the system default the multiline details for warehouse, zone or bin combination.

The system displays the following in the “Details” multiline:

Activity Code

The code identifying the activity defined in the work order process plan.

Activity Desc.

The description of the activity.

Sub Activity

Use the drop-down list box to select the sub-activities of the activity. You can select from “Setup”, “Run”, “Batch”, “Problem” or “Blank”.

If the value problem is selected, then the problem field cannot be blank. If the selected sub-activity is setup, batch or run then the accepted, rejected and scrap quantity should be either blank or zero. For the existing record in the multiline, the sub-activity cannot be modified. If modified, then the system displays an error message. The sub-activities available for the activity are:

 

  • Setup – indicates the tasks that are performed during setup of a resource.

 

  • Run – indicates the actual manufacturing of the output item of the activity

 

  • Batch – indicates the tasks that are performed during batch change over.

 

  • Problem – indicates any problem encountered during the sub-activity.

Start Time

The start time of the activity. The start time should not be blank for the records in the multiline and should be in valid time format and should also be less than or equal to current time.

End Time

The end time of the activity. The end time should not be blank for the records in the multiline and should be in valid time format and should also be greater than the start time.

Note: The system checks for each record in the multiline whether Start Time/End Time specified fall within the calendar events for specific shift. If it does not fall, then the system displays an error message.

Duration (Hrs.)

The time duration of the activity. If the start time and end time is specified, the duration is calculated as the difference between start time and end time for each record in the multiline.

Accepted Qty.

The quantity of the output item that has been accepted during the activity. For each record in the multiline, accepted quantity should be non-zero. If it is left blank, then the system sets the field to zero. The accepted quantity should not be negative.

Lot No.

Use the drop-down list box to select the lot numbers. The system checks whether the item code that belong to the work order is Lot No controlled and the PP Seq is having Lot No enabled as defined in the process plan. If enabled, the system populates with available lot numbers along with a blank row. You can select from "New Lot" or “Blank”. The system displays “Blank” by default on launch of the page.

Sub – Lot Applicable

The system validates the available details in the multiline for the specified employee code and transaction date combination and selects those records for deletion that have activity complete set to "No". For the Work Order No" and PP Seq combination, the selected records are marked for deletion. The system displays a success message after deleting the respective details and refreshes the screen with the updated data. The system ensures that at least one record in the multiline should have selected for deletion.

The system ensures that at least one record should exist in the multiline and also ensures that the relevant tasks were performed to populate the multiline. Employee code, transaction date and shift combination should be unique and always the details are to be retrieved before adding the same in the multiline.

The Work Order and PP Seq should not be blank and should be valid for every record. The system confirms that duplicate records must not exist in the multiline for Work order No, PP Seq, Sub-Activity, Start Time, End Time fields. If the existing records are modified in the multiline for the quantities and the item belong to the work order is serial number controlled and for which serial no exists then the system displays an error message. This is applicable to accepted, rejected and scrap quantity. For the existing records in the multiline, the Work Order No and PP Seq cannot be modified.

For the specified Work Order No and PP Seq combination:

The system saves the records in the multiline and refreshes the screen with new details.

The system updates the login ID of the user to the “Last Modified By” and the system date to the “Last Modified Date” field.
