I am trying to get my lot to adopt the Sub Con process and i think i am 90% of the way there, it has only taken since i joined the company in 2017 but finally…
However, a question has been raised and i dont know the answer, why does the Sub Con requirement not show in Time Phase? It shows in BWB and the materials required for the Sub Con requirement appear in Time Phase but the part that the Sub Con is for does not 
do you have a different part number in the sub con operation on the job operation?
Yes, so the SubCon operation on the job shows the part number we expect back from the 3rd party, the materials to go into that part are assigned to the operation.
Just so i understand.
the job is to make one part number, which is different to the subcon part number?
Correct, we make a part, in that part there is a subcon requirement to send another part to a 3rd party, to be tinned for example, which comes back as the subcon part.
The tinned part is then used in the build of the main job part
The way I explain things like this to our users is that Time Phase looks at jobs as a black box. It sees material requirements going in and finished goods coming out of them, but all of the “stuff” you have to do within the job (operations, subassemblies, outsourcing, etc.) to get that done isn’t shown or visible in Time Phase.
Ooh i like that, can i use that in my meeting on Monday?
