Effects of Optional Modules
Some features of work orders are affected if you are using the Compliance module. When compliance is active, you can assign batch numbers, restrict items issued to an order, restrict items received, and enforce stricter lot/serial control rules. These features are described in detail in the discussion of the Compliance module. The description of work orders in this chapter assumes that compliance features are not active.
See User Guide: Master Data for details on the Compliance module.
The PRO/PLUS WIP Lot Trace module (WLT) affects some work order functions. When WIP Lot Trace is active, you can:
• Monitor and trace work in process (WIP) inventory.
• Track WIP material lot/serials processed by multiple subcontractors.
• Maintain detailed historical records, including which components produced a finished item and which finished items went to a customer.
If you are using the optional PRO/PLUS module, WIP Lot Trace is available as option 3.22.13. When activated, additional frames display in some work order programs. The discussion in this chapter assumes that WLT features are not active.
For details, see User Guide: PRO/PLUS.
