Ship WIP to Supplier

Explanation

Use this activity to update the quantity of items shipped to the supplier.

Note: You can break the outside operation into several shipments to the supplier. You cannot ship more items than are required for the operation or are reported in the operation prior to the outside operation.

When Split has not been performed for an outside operation, user cannot ship the work in progress (WIP) more than the completed quantity in previous operation
When Split has been performed for an outside operation;

The remaining work in progress (WIP) qty to ship

The minimum value between the completed quantity in the previous operation, and the operation quantity of the current outside operation

If the previous operation is overreported and outside operation is splited, remaining work in progress (WIP) quantity to ship will be calculated as below,

The remaining work in progress (WIP) qty to ship in 1st splited operation

Completed quantity of previous operation - Shipped quantity of the 1st splited Operation - (Maximum value of operation quantity or shipped quantity of 2nd splited operation + Maximum value of operation quantity or shipped quantity of 3rd splited operation + ...)

It is also possible to print an outside operations delivery note using this activity as well.

Prerequisites

This activity requires that a quantity of parts be reported on the operation prior to the outside operation. To print the delivery note this activity requires a purchase order to be created for the operation.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, the system updates the outside operation to reflect the quantity shipped to the supplier.
This changes the outside operation status to In Process.
A Work In Process (WIP) transaction is created.
If non-issued material is linked to the operation, it is issued automatically in the same quantity as the shipped quantity.

Note: The value for the WIP transaction is calculated based on the estimated cost calculation for the shop order and the quantity shipped to the supplier. This means that variations in WIP, either positive or negative, due to differences from standard, such as changes in lot size, material issued, or time reported, will always remain in the shop order internal WIP. These variances will not be transferred to WIP at supplier.
