Routings are sequenced sets of operations to perform in order to complete a production batch.
Navigation: Process Engineer > Process Routings
Enter the Routing code, Version & Routing Description that briefly describes the routing.
Enter a Class for the routing to identify how it is categorized. Entering process routing classes is optional.
To know, how to define routing classes click the below link.
Based on the loss specified in the routing class - Planned Loss, Theoretical Loss & Fixed Loss fields will get populated.
Enter the Process Quantity for this routing. Based on the quantity entered, Theoretical Loss might change (as per the loss provided in routing class)
Select Enforce Step Dependency
to indicate the recipe using this routing enforces step dependencies.
When you select this indicator, routing steps must be released and
completed manually.
Select Contiguous
to indicate the routing must be run in one uninterrupted block of time.
The batch that uses this routing cannot stop and start, even if it runs
into downtime on the shop calendar.
Enter the Owner Organization to indicate the plant, laboratory, or other facility responsible for initiating this routing.
Routing Steps:
Enter the Step number
to associate with an operation in this routing. It is recommended that
the first number in this sequence be 10, the second 20, and so forth.
You can add intermediate steps between 10 and 20 at a later time.
Enter the code of the Operation performed in this routing.
Enter the operation Step Quantity as the quantity of material associated with this step.
Min Transfer Qty mentioned in the operation will be defaulted.
Select Release Type as,
- Automatic if the step is automatically released or completed when subsequent steps are released or completed.
- Manual if the step must be released and completed manually.
Note: All steps are completed if the batch is completed, regardless of the step release type
Step Dependencies:
The
Routing Step Dependencies window lets us to create and modify routing
step interrelationships. Step dependencies are those relationships
between routing steps that establish whether a specific step can or
cannot start until another step is completed.
For
example, if step 10 is BAKING and step 20 is the COOLING step, and then
step 10 must be completed before step 20 can begin. By this definition,
step 20 is dependent on the completion of step 10.
Enter the Previous Step that the currently selected step is dependent on.
Select Dependency Type as,
- Start-to-start if the dependent step starts at the same time as the step on which it is dependent.
- Finish-to-start if the dependent step starts after the previous step ends.
Enter Standard Delay
as the standard number of hours from the end of the preceding step to
the start of the current step. You can also enter standard delay as the
start of the preceding step to the start of the current step, depending
on the dependency type entered.
If
you enter a value equal to zero, then the step following the current
step begins immediately after the step ends or starts. You can enter a
negative standard delay if the dependency type is finish-to-start in
order to create overlapping steps.
Enter Transfer Percent as the percentage of material that goes to the dependent step after all products and byproducts are yielded.
For
example, If 40 percent of the material from the previous step comes
into the current batch step as a result of 60 percent of the material
going to another step, then enter transfer percent as 40.
The routing created will be used while defining Recipe.
