I'm looking for some advice on how best to handle a situation where
we need to scrap some or all parts on a job and re-run.
We are currently using the same Job with the same operations, just
clocking in as rework. We are experiencing some problems with this.
1. No notification for purchasing to buy more material.
2. Operators sometimes forget to clock in under rework, so I data
collection is bad.
3. No visibility under capacity planning, operations are already
complete.
I've suggested that maybe adding a new operation for each of the
one's that need to be re-run would work. Ex(Opr Seq 11, 21, 31
instead of 10, 20, 30) It does seem to take care of item 1 OK if you
add the material again and relate the new seq to it. Item 2 can
still be a problem, but as long as they use the new seq, I have a
quick edit report that Production can watch the operation seq's that
don't end in 0, and change the entries to rework. Item 3 works fine
this way too. My big problem here is if we need to scrap a portion
of the total qty, where some of it is still good. There doesn't seem
to be a way to add an operation for a qty other that the Production
total. Example: Original Order 5000. We run 4 operations and
notice we need to scrap and re-run 3000, with 2000 being good. I
want to create an operation 11, 21, 31, and 41 for 3000 pcs. The
only way I can see doing it is by tinkering with the qty per parent.
If I enter .6 in there it will show my production qty as 3000. That
is a really clunky way to handle it, especially if dealing with
really odd quantities.
Are there any other ideas?
Thanks,
