9.6 Enhancements Training Session #2

Enhancements to Review CRP and Simulation (Bug ID 1910) Credit Process Management (Bug ID 1629) Return to Vendor (Bug ID ) (If time permits)

CRP and Simulation

Agenda Overview Quick Demo Functional highlights and demonstration Q & A

Overview Allows users to run what if simulations and use shop floor scheduling tools to view capacity requirements. –Similar in concept to MRP companies that are often setup for customer to run MRP over multiple locations at the same time

Overview New Workbench with tools to: –Modify/Import MPS forecast and firm planned orders –Modify/Import MRP forecast and firm planned orders –Rerun MRP –Copy to Review file –Create shop orders –View Shop Floor schedule/requirements Workbench is called from Live company so it is seamlessly integrated from a user perspective

Overview Can create multiple CRP companies tied to one Live company New tool to create CRP company –Automates setup of common devices tables Item, PO, COP etc. –MRP, SF, Shop Calendar, Dept/WC are unique to CRP company but populated from live data –MPS can be common or unique

Overview Shop floor functions have been modified to protect users from accidentally updating Live company (allocations, etc.) when running simulations or thinking they are processing orders in Live company

Quick Demo

Create new MRP company

Creation of new schema and all setup other than.net security –Connection string –Create background scheduler service –Update of company device table to set all appropriate tables as common –NOT Common MRP SHPORD (including calendar and tables) MPS (optional)

Create new MRP company Add/update new CRP parameter which has following fields: –Flags company as a CRP company (for warning messages, lookups) –Company code that company is common to –Date/time of last table updates

CRP Workbench MPS Planning MPS Forecast MRP Planning and Regen –Forecast Orders –Firm Planned Orders Order Review Simulation –Shop Orders –Workcenters Reset Source Data

CRP Workbench – Order Review Same as existing function with following changes –New Buttons Button to access Order review file parameters Mass select of orders in review –Eliminate Copy from COP –Create Shop Order button limitations No shop order allocation No shop order print No TCM_Notes created

CRP Workbench – Order Review

New button to mass select planned orders through a given date

CRP Workbench – Shop Orders Same as Shop Order tab in Mfg workbench Access to same SF control functions since shop floor environment in not common No allocation of inventory

CRP Workbench – Shop Orders

CRP Workbench - Workcenter Same as Workcenter tab in Mfg workbench Allow maintenance to Dept W/C (existing.net ) Add button to maintain shop calendar (existing.net ) Add button to Reschedule Late Shop Orders (existing dibol Add button to Change Dept/WC (existing dibol) Add buttons to start and stop the background scheduler (existing dibol)

CRP Workbench - Workcenter

CRP Workbench – Reset Source Data Refresh key data by copying from Live company to MRP company –TABLES (to update Dept/WC) – ISAM –Shop calendar – SQL –Shop orders – SQL –MPS - SQL –MRP Parameters - SQL –Last MRP Live Run – ISAM, SQL –Purge Order Review (to clear old planned orders) - SQL

CRP Workbench – Reset Source Data

Q & A

Credit Process Management Overview

Agenda Overview Credit status table enhancements New order process status table New Order Process history table Order flow Summary of Changes Questions

Overview Credit Process Management is designed to separate credit status from order status. It was designed to address common complaints from customers –Enhanced credit algorithms Aging – Days and dollars Re-test rules –Improved and refined process control Planning Production Forms Shipping

Overview Order status code will no longer be tied to credit –Will still affect printing/processing same as always –This will allow customers with legacy workflows tied to order status to continue with no changes Order can have a status of A but have failed credit or have functions not allowed

Overview Taking advantage of the new credit process we will effectively add a second order process control This will facilitate functions like engineering requirements that are similar but distinct from credit

Quick Demo Credit Status – Credit Rules

Quick Demo Credit Status – Process Control

Quick Demo.Net Maintenance form in Open Orders

New Parameter Turn CPM on/off Notification control –Credit followup notes –Heads Up events 9.7 workflow trigger –Both

Credit Status Table Expanded to handle CPM Credit rules – for testing credit Re-test rules – to limit re-testing after release Default process control flags –If pass credit –If fail credit

Credit Status Table –REPlace image here

Credit Status Table - Process –REPlace image here

Order Credit Process Table - Process Track process whether on hold or not Process defaults from status table Controlled uniquely by order

Order Credit Process Table - Process Place image here

Order Credit Process Table - Process New history table of process changes –Primarily for PMWB analysis –Place image here

Order Flow Credit check on header add –Add order flag? –Customer aging If not held Check on line add/change –Aging – Dollar/Days –Change in aging dollars/days based on rules Re-check at process points if flagged

Order Flow

Similar requirements for –Shipments (including one-step) –Invoicing (including one-step)

Other order functions Planning functions –MRP/MPS –Allocations –Fulfilment (make/buy to order from COP or via order review) Processed if associated CPM flag allows No new credit check

Other order functions Forms –Acknowledgement –Pick Ticket –Packing Slip –BOL –Invoice Process control flag check –Whether order is held or not

Other order functions Credit check as part of selection –If flagged for re-test –Based on current credit status E.g. change in aging dollars/days based on rules Order status flag still considered

Customer Order Screens CPM form added to Open Order Workbench (maintainable)

Customer Order Screens CPM history form added to Open Order Workbench Place image here

Customer Order Screens Access CPM maintenance form for shipments and Invoices by right clicking in Shipments grid Place image here

Customer Order Screens.Net CPM maintenance form called from dibol Order maintenance (F8) Place image here

Customer Order Screens Request Credit Review –Called from CPM form in Order maintenance –Creates heads up event Place image here

Summary of Program Changes Modify Customer Order Maintenance direct fulfillment to check Order Credit Process table Modify Shipping Maintenance with new Credit Process screen and new check point (including Packing slip) Modify Invoice Maintenance with new Credit Process screen and new check point Create conversion process for COP Order Credit Process Table

Summary of Program Changes Modify COP credit logic Modify COP Allocation logic to check Order Credit Process Modify Acknowledgement Print function to check order Credit Process table Modify Pick Ticket Print function to check COP Order Credit Process table Modify Bill of Lading Print function to check COP Order Credit Process table

Summary of Program Changes Modify Invoice Print function to check COP Order Credit Process table Modify Copy to review function to check COP Order Credit Process table Modify AR Credit Note parameter screen for additional credit process functions Modify MRP/MPS to check Order Credit Process Modify credit process review screens in Financial Workbench to include Order credit process

Summary of Program Changes Add COP order credit process table to Credit Risk Order query criteria Add credit order process to Customer Order Management Workbench as a “maintenance” tab (so we will not have to display in dibol order management) –This may mean adding it to shipment and invoice tab as well. Add credit process to event manager
