Machinery work orders and shipping

In machinery the work order, the part, the warehouse location and the shipment follow one record. This is not a project list.

A plain crate holding machinery on a shipping dock

In machinery the record is the trace of a work order from the part through assembly to the shipment. When the part sits in a warehouse location and the machine is shipped from another list, a missing part shows up on site.

Line and device integration binds the part scanned at the station to the work order. The production record writes which part went into which machine. The warehouse puts the part in a location. Picking takes it from that location.

Shipping binds the finished machine or the crate to a load. PTS is the identity of the crate from the line to the warehouse location and the shipment. WMS and ERP exchange the work order, the stock and the shipment with that identity.

When the shipment needs a document, the e-document binds to that load. We do not write the name of a machinery standard on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the part and the finished machine the same record?

The part is a line of the work order. The finished machine is the shipment that collected those lines. Both follow one record.

How is the crate traced?

The crate receives an identity. The warehouse location and the shipment are written on that identity. We call that PTS package transport.

Is this a project?
