Recording work estimates

Recording work estimates

In this page, you can view the details of the work order selected in the “Record Work Estimates” page and the associated child work orders. The selected work order and the associated child work orders, if any, are displayed in a tree structure. For the work order selected in the tree, the reference document details, main core details and customer order details are displayed in the right pane.

You can view the estimation details of the task, retrieve the actual part and resource requirements utilized for the execution of the task within a shop work order and estimate the number of parts and/or resources required by the mechanic for completing each task, using different tab pages. You can also confirm the part and resource estimates, and estimate the charge details for the execution of the task.

Select the hyperlinked execution document number in the entry point page of the “Record Work Estimates” activity.

The “Edit Work Estimates” page appears.

Note: This page can be invoked, only if all the tasks within the work order are in status other than “Cancelled”.

Work Order List Tree

The system displays the “Work Order List” tree in the left pane, which displays the execution document selected in the “Record Work Estimates” page, and the child work orders. The Package # / parent shop work order is displayed as the first level node. The child work orders available in the Package # / parent work order are displayed as sub-nodes under the following folders:

Pending Estimates: All the child work orders whose estimation status is “Pending Estimates” are displayed under this folder.
Pending Confirmation: All the child work orders whose estimation status is “Pending Confirmation” are displayed under this folder.
Pending Re-estimates: All the child work orders whose estimation status is “Pending Re-estimates” are displayed under this folder.
Confirmed Estimates: All the child work orders whose estimation status is “Confirmed Estimates” are displayed under this folder.
Released Estimates: All the child work orders whose estimation status is “Released Estimates” are displayed under this folder.
Not Applicable: All the child work orders whose estimation status is “Not Applicable” are displayed under this folder.

The tree structure is as follows:

AME # / Parent SWO # :: Work Center :: Order Description :: Estimation Status

- Pending Estimates

Child SWO # :: Work Center # :: SWO Desc. :: Order Status

- Pending Confirmation

Child SWO # :: Work Center # :: SWO Desc. :: Order Status

- Pending Re- Estimates

Child SWO # :: Work Center # :: SWO Desc. :: Order Status

- Confirmed Estimates

Child SWO # :: Work Center # :: SWO Desc. :: Order Status

- Estimates Released

Child SWO # :: Work Center # :: SWO Desc. :: Order Status

- Not Required

Child SWO # :: Work Center # :: SWO Desc. :: Order Status

For the tasks available in the child work orders, the system displays the value of the parameter “Est. Reqd. for” which indicates whether estimation is required for parts, resources or a specific part. This value is displayed adjacent to the child work order number.

If the tasks require estimation of parts, the value “Est. Reqd. for:Mtl. Est” is displayed alongside the child work order number.
If the tasks require estimation of resources, the value “Est. Reqd. for:Res Est” is displayed.
If the tasks require estimation of parts and resources, the value “Est. Reqd. for:Mtl. Est:Res Est” is displayed.
If the tasks require estimation of parts, resources and specific part, the value “Est. Reqd. for:Mtl. & Res Est:Specific Part “ displayed.

Note that the repair process code can be modified only for those shop work orders which are in “Fresh”, “Planned” or “In-Progress” statuses.

Note: If the repair process code is not available for the tasks in the work order, the system inherits the repair process code modified / updated at work order level, to the tasks in the work order. However, for external shop work order, if estimation is set as “Required” in the “Edit Terms of Execution” activity of the “Sale Contract – Services” business component, the system updates the estimation status at both task and work levels..

Repair Classification
