Hi,
We are currently setting up some of our jobs with sub assemblies.
We will have ASM 0, ASM 1, ASM 2, ASM 3, ASM 4, ASM 5, ASM 6, and ASM 7. We need ASM 7 to run and complete first. We then can run ASM 1, ASM 2, ASM 3, ASM 4, ASM 5, and ASM 6 at the same time and we want them to start on the same date. Is it possible to do this without creating jobs for each sub assembly? We have tried going into the Job Scheduling Board and manually moving start dates but this takes to much time.
Yes, if your parts are setup as subassemblies, and the top level operations require those parts as materials. It will schedule one job, with many sub-assemblies. Make sure the parts and methods are setup correctly, then once you create the job and schedule it, all the sub assemblies (and their operations) should be listed in the schedule. You may need to expand the job to see the subassemblies at the bottom:
When you set up your method with the assemblies they will schedule together if you set the Scheduling for ASM 1-6 as Start-to-Start. I believe they will all then start at the same time. The last assembly should be the first one scheduled, then it should plan ASM 1-6 after it.
Your screenshot, is that the operations?
I am not seeing any scheduling stuff on subassemblies (in Kinetic). I’ll look in classic, though.
(Edit) Yeah not seeing this in classic on (sub)assemblies.
So how does one schedule an assembly?
So the parent assembly for ASM 1-6 would be ASM 7? Then Start to Start for the first operation on ASM 1-6?
