General exercise for Entering Component Repair Order.

Main Exercise

Purpose: The purpose of this exercise is to show you how to process a repair shop order create from a component repair order.

Window: Shop Order

Process Work Order

  1. In the Repair CRO Lines/ Repair Order tab, right-click and then click Repair Shop Order.
    Note: For a repair shop order there is always material- and operation lines generated when releasing the component repair order line. The setups for the service type, the repair code structure and the repair code routing determines which material- and operation lines to include in work scope. In order to get predefined work scope a repair code structure and/or repair code routing must exist for the part with repair code lines in Active state. It is always possible to add a service type to the component repair order line after release to repair. The shop order gets automatically updated with material- and operations related to the service type. To be noted is that if the added service type includes a repair code which generates the same structure line number as already added by a previous recorded services type then it will it be excluded, i.e. no duplicates of the repair structure material lines are generated. It is the same for operations, no duplicates of an existing operation number will be generated when adding a new service type to the component repair order line.
    All material- and operation lines are generated together with the service type, this is in order to get a connection between the shop order transactions and the service types. The purpose is that all costs generated when processing the repair should be associated with a service type so that it is possible to follow up how the costs have grown compared to the service type price. It is possible to use the list of value to change the service type for predefined material and operations. If there are circumstances which require a change of a material- and/or operation line’s service type then there are no obstacles for the user to execute such changes. It is also possible to add a service type to an operation- or material line added to the shop order after release to repair by using the list of values. However it is only possible to select a service type which is recorded for the component repair order line, i.e. listed in the Service Type tab.
  2. Right-click and then click Issue. The Enter Criteria for Issue dialog box opens
  3. select the Issue All Reserved Material check box as well as the Issue Non-reserved Material check box under Criteria for Issue.
