V6.1 Time Phased Material Requirements Re-Creation

Adam,

We run 8.03.305, and I use ServiceConnect to get at the timephase
webservice. Using this you can extract the whole time phase data for
all parts and then do what ever you like with the data. I now have a
whole bunch of reports that I just couldn't do directly in Vantage.

I am not even sure if S/C was available for 6.1, but if you have
access to it, its really, really useful.

Thanks,

Nick

Hello,
We are on Vantage 6.1. Has anyone tried to re-create the time phased
materials requirements report for finished goods? We wanted some
changes made to the stock report; I know this is a Progress report, so
it cannot be modified, but I am having trouble re-creating it as well.
I don't see a way to use report builder to create the column
titled "source" because this one column is pulling from two different
tables (sales orders and jobs). It seems that no matter how the data
is grouped or sorted, there will duplicates of the jobs or duplicates
of the sales orders. I know a SQL union would work, but I don't
believe report builder has a way to do a SQL union. Does anyone know
what Progress is doing behind the scenes to calculate this column? I
think either I am missing someting obvious or the IMR60.r file for this
report is working magic. If anyone has any tips or tricks, it would be
much appreciated. Thanks!

Adam,

Did you look at the JobProd table? I think this is where the "source"
column comes from.

Adam,
It can be done but does take some manipulation. You need the PartDtl
table to be able to break down the receipts and requirements. You then
need to create some calculated fields to give you quantity for each
SourceFile. Then do your aggregate calcs to get the totals. When we
created ours we did a grouping on the part number. We didn't show the
details for all the demands. We used part class as a filter an would run
it for the particular class we were interested in.

Jim

DUH! The partdtl table -- how did I forget about that. That is the
missing link. I think I was trying to greatly over-complicate this
report. Well, at least it kept me busy all day! Thank you very much
for the input.
