Disassemble and assemble core

In this tab, you can perform multiple operations such as attach, remove and replace components and spare parts with respect to the main core component. Child work orders are generated during each removal of the part / component. You can also the update the disposition details of the part that is removed. You can specify the reason for removal of the part and the task against which the attachment, removal and replacement occurs.

You can record routing details of the part and print the routing slip for the part, if required. Routing slip is a document that contains movement details of the particular component or part, such as “From Work Center”, “To Work Center”, etc. The system generates Material Request, Purchase Request and Repair Order during attachment / removal / replacement of the parts and components.

This tab allows you to perform the following:

Attach components and spare parts to the main core component.
Remove components and spare parts from the main core component.
Replace components and spare parts in the main core component.
Update disposition details of the part removed.
Record the routing details and print the routing slip.
Select the “Disassemble & Assemble Core” tab in the “Record Shop Execution Details” page.

A tree structure is displayed in the left pane, with “Shop Work Order” as the parent node. This is a static node under which following details are displayed.

All the shop work orders are displayed in ascending order under the static node.
On expanding a node in each Shop Work Order #, the tree displays child nodes (Part # - Serial #) node containing core details i.e. details of the component for which the shop work order has been created.
Under the child nodes, the system displays all the components that have 'Display Level' "1" in the configuration.
If ‘Spare Part List’ exists for the Part # - Serial # available in a node, in the “Configuration” business component, the system displays “Piece Parts” as a last node in the tree structure, under which the lists of parts that are identified in the 'Spare Part List' is displayed.

The tree structure is given below:

Tree Structure:

- Shop Work Order

- SWO #1

- Part # :: Serial #

- Position Code :: Part # :: Part Desc. :: Serial # :: Component #

- Piece Part

- Part # : Part Desc. : Quantity

- SWO #2

- Mfr. Part # :: Mfr. # :: Serial #

- Position Code :: Mfr. Part # :: Mfr. # :: Part Desc. :: Serial # :: Component #

- Piece Part

- Mfr. Part # : Mfr. # : Part Desc. : Quantity

- SWO #3

In the tree structure above, the system displays “Mfr. Part # - Mfr. #” combination, if the parameter “Enable Manufacturer Part # control in transaction” under the Category ‘Manufacturer Part #’ is set as “Yes” in the “Set Inventory Process Parameters” activity of the “Logistics Common Master” business component. If the parameter is set as “No”, the system displays “Part #”.

Note: In a node, if value is not available in any position, the system indicates it by displaying [NA] in the format above.

On clicking “Go”

When a value e.g. “Part # / Serial” # is selected in the ‘Search On’ drop-down list box, and a part number and a serial number are entered in the editable boxes provided alongside, on invoking “Go” or pressing ‘Enter’ key, the system performs the following:

The system retrieves and displays all the shop work orders belonging to the entered part # / serial # combination, and that are in “Planned”, “In-Progress” and “Completed” status.
