Defaults

These processing options specify the default information the system uses during kanban processing.

1. Item Number (Optional)

Enter the item number to review information for an individual item. The number can be in short, long, or third item number format.

2. Location (Optional)

Enter a location number to review information for an individual location from which goods will be moved.

3. Hours Equivalent to One Day

Specify the number of working hours in a day. The default value is 8.

4. Closed Status

Enter a Closed Status code (UDC 00/SS) for a rate schedule or work order. The default value is 99.

5. Bill of Material Type

Specify a value from UDC 40/TB that designates the type of bill of material. You can define different types of bills of material for different uses. For example:

M: Standard manufacturing bill

RWK: Rework bill

SPR: Spare parts bill

The system enters bill type M in the work order header when you create a work order, unless you specify another bill type. The system uses the bill type code on the work order header to identify the bill of material to use during the creation of the work order parts list. MRP uses the bill type code to identify the bill of material to use when it attaches MRP messages. Batch bills of material must be type M for shop floor management, product costing, and MRP processing.

6. Employee Number (Optional)

(Optional) Indicate the default employee number to use for the detail completion lines and hours and quantities information. Use this employee number when using the Super Backflush program (P31123) to perform completion and check-in transactions that record work order and rate schedule completions.

7. Transfer Order Receipt Location

Specify the default location to which order transfers will be received for type 5 kanbans.
