2008-102 – Job Re-Creation Process

Overview
Generally, when creating Production Orders and Jobs in OPTO the user would complete the Part build with the correct materials and/or sub parts before creation of the Job Ticket. However, this is not always possible and changes to the part or addition to parts are required after the production order and job ticket/s have been created. To ensure that the correct information is carried through the Job ticket after these changes are made, the following procedures must be followed.

Before adding parts or changing the build of an existing Production Order the following must be checked:

  • No times have been booked against the Job ticket/s.
  • No materials have been picked, purchased or issued against the job ticket/s.
  • No despatches have been completed for the order.

NOTE: A new order must be raised for additional items if the above conditions cannot be met.

From the OPTO ribbon, select the JOBS/SCHEDULING tab and click on the ‘Job Control’ icon. Enter the order number or press <F2> and select the order from the pop-up list then click on OK. Click in the Active field and change from “Yes” to “No”. Press <F9> to save then close the window.

Open the order and make the required changes and press <F9> to save. Navigate back to the JOBS/SCHEDULING tab and click on the ‘Create Job Ticket’ icon. Enter the job ticket number in the Job No field and press <TAB> to active the ‘Create Job Ticket’ pane.

A warning message pops up advising that this job was already created. The warning message also displays the date they were created, and the user number and name of the employee who created the job tickets, click OK.

The ‘Creating Job Tickets’ panel appears and the process is run recreating the job ticket/s. Click OK on the ‘Job Ticket Creation Complete’ message and the ‘Print Job Tickets’ window appears, print if required.

Click on the ‘Activate Job Ticket’ icon, enter the order number and press <TAB> to generate the window then click on OK. A confirm message appears, click on ‘Yes’.

The order is now an active order and is ready to be started again.
