Overview of Material Requirements

When you define a job, the assembly bill created in Bill of


Materials is copied to the job:
Material requirements are copied from the BOM items
The BOM is exploded to create component requirements
Non-standard jobs can use bill of material references
Supply types control how components are delivered

Overview of Material Requirements


For non-standard jobs, bill of material references are used to create material requirements, but
references are not required. You can define the job without material requirements, and then
customize by adding requirements.

Overview of Material Requirements (continued)


When you define jobs and schedules you can combine standard, alternate, or common bills of
material and routings to create specific material requirements anywhere in the routing. The
assembly revision determines which version of the bill of material is used to create the
requirements.
Note: You can create material requirements without routings. They are assigned to a default
operation sequence of 1.
Backflush transactions are material transactions that automatically issue component items into
work in process from inventory when you move or complete the assembly.

Aligning ECOs for Work in Process and Planning


In Oracle Advanced Planning, the ECO Use-up Date is the date when the on-hand
quantity is calculated to be 0. It is calculated from inventory supply and requirement
demand. A profile option is provided, MSC:Release WIP Details if Order Date Different than
BOM Revision Date, to align work in process production with engineering change orders in
planning. This enables you to control resource and component schedules calculated by
planning, and forwarded to Work in Process when ECOs exist. Production order
recommendations from planning can either ignore active ECOs, or assume future ECOs are
already active.

Component Yield and Shrinkage


Component yield is the amount of a component you require to build, plus the amount of the
component you lose or waste while building an assembly:
The aggregate required quantity can be inflated to allow for shrinkage.
A yield factor of 100% indicates no loss in the manufacturing process.
A yield factor of less than 100% indicates that less than 100% of the components you
issue survive the build process and component usage quantity increases.
The cost rollup optionally includes the effect of component yield in the assembly costs.
The Include Component Yield parameter lets you disable this calculation.

Component Supply Types


By synchronizing your bill of material with routings, you can specify when and where
materials are to be issued or backflushed to your jobs and schedules You can assign supply
types to the items you define in Oracle Inventory, or define them on the bill of material. Supply
types can also be changed when you create the job or schedule. If you change the supply type
on your work order, you are overriding the supply types for all the components on that job. You
can update the supply types of individual material requirements using the Material
Requirements window.
Based on Bill
This supply type uses the bill of material information. If there is no bill or routing for the job,
the system automatically changes the supply type to Assembly Pull.
Assembly Pull
Components are issued when assemblies are completed. They are pulled from the supply
subinventory assigned to the component requirement. You cannot assign this supply type to a
non-standard discrete job if you have not specified an assembly or bill of material reference.

Phantom Assemblies
Phantoms behave normally when they are top level assemblies, such as when master scheduled
or manufactured on a discrete job. As subassemblies, they lose their distinct identity and
become a collection of their components. Work in Process does not recognize the phantom
subassembly itself, and only sees and lists the individual phantom components on the bill of
material (although the phantom subassembly is recognized in Oracle Planning products).
You can specify that phantom subassemblies maintain their own operation sequence numbers,
and their resource and overhead costs are charged to the parent or higher level assembly, by
setting up two parameters in Oracle Bills of Material.

Kanban Replenishment
In a pull-based system, inventory items are replenished as soon as they are needed. Kanban
cards are used as replenishment signals. The term kanban refers to a visual replenishment
signal, such as a card or an empty container for material. In a kanban system, each workstation
can have several containers, each holding the same quantity of material. These cards generate
material requests automatically. Kanban material replenishment is a self-regulating pull system
to pull the minimum amount of material possible into production bins to meet demand. Kanban
replenishment enables you to:
Minimize inventory investment
Increase inventory turns
Stage material at point of use
Integrate suppliers into the supply chain
Eliminate work order kits
The source type of the kanban card determines how the material is replenished. A supplier
kanban may automatically trigger a purchase order to a supplier, while an internal kanban
results in an inter-organizational transfer.

You can reverse backflush transactions and automatically return backflushed components back
to inventory. For example, pull components that are backflushed as you move assemblies to the
next intraoperation step in a routingthey are automatically returned to inventory if you move
assemblies to a previous step in the routing.
Backflush transactions are enforced by the following rules:
A default supply subinventory must be defined for the component
Routing references are specified for non-standard jobs
Component item is transactable in the Inventory item master record
Backflush quantities in decimal values must be no more than five decimal places
Yield calculations are based on exact requirements, rather than rounded values
Assembly and operation pull components under lot, serial, or lot and serial number control can
be backflushed. The Backflush window provides efficient entry for large numbers of lot and
serial controlled items when creating assembly move transactionsincluding scrap, reject, and
assembly completion.

or lot numbers, or both for items under control:
For serial control, when issuing items to work in process, you can use the predefined or
dynamically created serial numbers assigned upon receipt of an item into inventory.
For lot control, you can use the lot number assigned upon receipt of an item into inventory
when issuing that item to work in process.
You can perform serialized move transactions through Oracle Mobile Supply Chain

Using the Component Pick Release Program

Using the Component Pick Release Program

The Component Pick Release program is a rules


based system for replenishing.

Using the Component Pick Release Program


Component picking, obtaining requirements for specific jobs and schedules, is the process of
moving items from source locations and issuing them to work orders. The Component Pick
Release program features include:
The Component Pick Release window is used to select requirements and create move
orders for discrete jobs, lot based jobs, repetitive schedules, and flow schedules.
There is a distinct and individual window for the manufacturing mode selected.
Move orders, requests for the movement of material within an organization, are created for
picked items. They enable the replenishment of material within a warehouse or
manufacturing shop floor.
The source for material picked is based on Oracle Inventory allocation rules entered on the
Picking Rules window. If Oracle Warehouse Management is installed, you can use rules
based picking recommendations. This employs user defined rules to recommend locations
to pick from, specific items to pick, and item revisions. Pick methodologies, or grouping
rules, control how pick tasks are grouped to individual picking. Grouping rules include
order pick, bulk pick, cluster pick, and user defined grouping rules.
The destination for picked material depends on the supply type.

Using the Component Pick Release Program

Using the Component Pick Release Program

Using the Component Pick Release Program (continued)


If you are using the Component Pick Release program, you can run the pick release multiple
times until the requirement is filled.
Setup
The Component Pick Release program only considers supply type push components in
processing, unless the Release Backflush Components parameter is enabled. This parameter
enables both operation pull and assembly pull supply type components in the pick release
process.

Overview of Outside Processing

Overview of Outside Processing

You can include supplier-sourced components and


resources in your manufacturing. This enables you to:
Define items that the supplier contributes in the build
process
Use specialized supplier skills
Increase your overall production capacity

Overview of Outside Processing


Outside processing provides a closed loop system using Oracle Inventory, Oracle Purchasing,
and Oracle Work in Process to:
Define outside resource requirements for routings, and automatically charge outside
processing resource costs.
Automatically generate purchase requisitions.
Receive assembly items from outside processing suppliers.
Outside Processing Items
You can define outside processing items that represent supplier-sourced items, resources, and
services that you include in your build process. These items can be non-stocked items which
represent the actual supplier contribution in your build process, or you can define the assembly
itself as an outside processing item. The outside processing item on your requisition or
purchase order, is received in your purchase order receipts.
You can define supplier-sourced components by selecting the Supplier supply type on your
bills of material. Supplier components are not transacted or backflushed.

Automatic Requisition Generation


Work in Process automatically generates a purchase requisition for outside processing
operations, unless you specify that they are created manually. An outside processing operation
is an operation that contains an outside resource linked to an outside processing item. The
timing of the creation of the purchase requisition is based on the setting of the WIP parameter
Requisition Creation Time:
At Job/Schedule Releasea purchase requisition is created for all outside processing
operations on a job or schedule when you release the job or schedule.
At Operationa purchase requisition is created when you move into the queue
intraoperation step of an outside processing operation. You then use Purchasing's
Autocreate feature to convert these requisitions to purchase orders.
The Requisition Import process automatically runs when using PO Move and PO Receipt
resource types, but only PO Move initiates the workflow.
Instructor Note
Refer participants to the Oracle Purchasing Users Guide for information on requisitions,
purchase orders, and the Requisition Import process. A detailed description of Outside
Processing is discussed in the Special Topics lesson.
