Part Issue Finalization


An option on the Work Orders - More Info tab of the Data -> Setup -> Organization Structure -> Locations -> Primary Information screen specifies when in the process serial number and/or position information must be entered (e.g., during posting, before work order finish, or before work order close). Serial number processing and component relationship changes occur after the serial number data is finalized.

The Part Issue Finalization screen enables you to enter serial number information after a part is issued but before the work order is finished or closed. Only part issues that were not finalized may be edited. You may view other part issues, but you cannot change rows that are already finalized. You may also use this screen to update position information on part issues as well as serial numbers for removed and installed items.

You may update the data at your convenience before the entry is finalized. For example, if you know the removed serial numbers but not the installed serial numbers, you can make two separate updates rather than waiting until all the information is available.

This screen supports location level access control, so you must belong to a user group with the applicable authorization to make changes or updates.

Detail View Header

Data in the fields in the top section specify the job for which you want to update the serial number information. All fields are display only.

Work order ID

Identifier of the work order currently selected in the grid. The work order ID is composed of three parts:

Equipment ID

Identifier of the work order's equipment unit.

Job status

Job status of the work order. The statuses are as follows:

Current work delay

Identifier of the reason for the current work delay, if any, on the work order. This field has a list box.

Detail View

The fields in the bottom section of the tab provide more information about the part. The Installed serial number, Removed serial number, Position ID, Account ID, NFI vendor ID, and Vendor invoice fields may be updated or changed on part issue transactions for work orders that are not CLOSED. This functionality can be useful if account IDs were not recorded properly when the part was originally issued to the work order or additional vendor details regarding a not from inventory (NFI) part issue become available after the part was issued. All other fields are display only.

Pending finalization

If this field has a check, the part is pending finalization, so the serial number and position information may be edited. If this field is blank, the part has been finalized and no additional updates may be made.

Task ID

Identifier of the task that describes the labor.

Task IDs are defined on the Data -> Shop Activity -> Setup -> Tasks -> Primary Information screen.

Work accomplished code

Code associated with the task ID for the work accomplished. This code provides more details about the work performed in relation to the task. If the WAC for this part is marked Part Issue Not Allowed on the Basic Info tab of the Work Accomplished Codes screen, an issue of a part with this WAC will cause an error during processing, and not process the issued part.

Work accomplished codes are defined on the Data -> Shop Activity -> Setup -> Work Accomplished Codes screen.

Date

The date (in MMDDYYYY format) that the part was issued.

Issuing location ID

Identifier of the location that issued the part

Part ID

Identifier for the part. The ID is associated with the part suffix.

Part suffix

Number associated with the part in the Part ID field, which distinguishes it from other parts with the same part ID. The suffix applies only if the part ID is a valid system part ID.

Installed serial number

Serial number of the part installed on the equipment unit. This field has a list box. The choices that display depend on the part ID and suffix and are restricted by the first characters that you type in the field before requesting the list.

Only pending serial numbers may be changed.

The options of serial numbers change depending on whether the Return field box is checked or not.

Removed serial number

Serial number of the part removed from the equipment unit. This field has a list box. The choices that display depend on the part ID and equipment ID and are restricted by the first characters that you type in the field before requesting the list. The removed serial number may not have IN STOCK status or be on another vehicle.

When a serialized part is issued to an asset, a validation confirms that the serial number being replaced is covered under warranty before a warranty claim is created. If the serial number of the removed part is not required until work order finish or close, the warranty claim creation process is delayed until finish or close. Warranty coverage is tracked at the serialized part level, not the part ID level (when issued to a work order).

The options of serial numbers change depending on whether the Return field box is checked or not.

Position ID

Identifier of the position. This field has a list box. Valid positions defined for the class and part ID are listed first, followed by a separator, and then all positions. This field is optional.

Comments

Comments and notes about the request.

Quantity issued

Quantity of the part issued.

Unit price

Unit price used to calculate the value of the quantity added or subtracted from inventory.

Warranty vendor

Identifier of the vendor that provides warranty services for the linear asset.

Not from inventory

If this field has a check, the part was not issued from inventory.

Return

If this field has a check, this entry is to either reverse a previous erroneous entry or to return to stock a part previously issued from inventory. You may not return more parts at a particular price than were issued to the work order at that price. For all returns, the system retrieves the unit price for the return from the Parts Issues (PTD_MAIN) table.

Core credit

If this field has a check, the part ID is assigned to a part classification ID that has a check in the Has a core field on the Data -> Parts Items -> Setup -> Part Classifications screen.

Core unit value

Account IDs are defined on the Basic Info tab of the Data -> Setup -> Organization Structure -> Accounts -> Primary Information screen.
