About this task
For an operation that requires clocking on, if the completed quantity of a serial/lot is equal to the planned quantity for the work order, the operation is automatically marked complete for the serial/lot. If, however, the operation does not require clocking on, and if you have performed the operation on the serial/lot, you must mark the operation complete. It is then removed from the list in the
Work Queue page.
Note: For a non-serialized lot, when an operation is a clocking operation and the material is configured with over and under production thresholds, the auto-complete feature is not triggered. In these cases, you must record a quantity and specify when they have completed the work. Completion is validated to ensure the quantity recorded is aligned to the over and under production thresholds based on the initial planned quantity of the serial/lot.
After all the operations are marked complete for all the serials/lots in a work order, the work order is marked complete in Plant Applications. You can view the completion status of the work order in Work Order Manager.
Note: Even if a part is over or under claimed at an operation, the X of Y quantity, Y is always based on the initial planned quantity, that is, it does not fluctuate based on manufactured/created/recorded quantity at previous operations. However, X can vary based on over or under quantity at the operation.
For example, Lot A is set for an initial planned quantity of 10. Now, at operation-1, the operator claims 9 of 10 quantity and completes the operation. In the Work Queue application, the operation-1 is complete with 9 of 10. However, for the next operation (operation-2), Lot A produces 10 quantity based on the initial planned quantity (and not as previous manufactured/created/recorded quantity of 9 at operation-1). In the Work Order Manager application, the work order can be completed with 9 of 10.
