Rework Process Blank Title 89244

Do you have the QA module and if so, are you using the DMR process? This would be very easy to track with operational non-conformance. You can even tie in the Corrective Action process in Vantage to the DMRs. You would need to work on a business process work flow and custom reports but all the pieces are there.

I would like to start getting some traceability to the exact job &
operation that caused an issue to be reworked. My basic approach is to
reopen the offending job, and report the reworked quantity against that
job. The idea is to pinpoint repeat problems and fix them.



I don't think this will have an effect on captured and posted cost so
long as the labor is reported and the job is re-closed during the
current period. Being a standard cost environment, I don't see a
problem with the dollars getting shifted to mfg variance after the job
is closed.



The only real problem I do see is working out the policy / procedure for
getting the job to the person, and getting it reclosed.



Thoughts?

are you doing any tracking - ie serial numbers?

are you unreceiving the product back to the job? If you were doing this, then the policy I'd be looking at would be to regularly close all jobs that don't have anything outstanding to come from them - if you unreceive the product back to the job, then it would just be as though the job had never been completed from that point of view... assuming same period, as you have. that should avoid the need for a separate process for closure.
