Jose:

I'm working with a v6.1 client who is migrating from V405CD. They currently
use CIMPath for PO Receipts.  We are making a couple of modifications to
CIM programs and are keeping the NGT file alive in v6.1 (to save time). We
plant to use a data queue to capture the transactions and call the INV500B
program to post. It is too risky to try to modify CIM620 was the judgement
call.

Additionally, to collect labor transactions  . . . in lieu of a bar code
solution we designed and wrote a custom production entry program as a
substitute for SFC650 and JIT600. It allows the "power" entry of multiple
labor tickets on the same screen, "copy down" logic and supports JIT (hunt
for a shop order logic) as well as shop order/operation input. We also
including all applicable validation logic and disabled some of the
annoying/bogus validation logic.  We did this from scratch and implemented
in 2-3 weeks.  It also includes auto-posting from this entry screen by
calling SFC651B. This was done without mods to BPCS so other users who want
to use things like start/stop time can still use the vanilla program.

Hi !

We are using BPCS 6.0.04
We are thinking of implementing the CIMpath program in order to input shop
floor labor tickets, inventory transactions and purchase orders, through
bar
code scanners, so as to optimize our warehouse in our plant here in
Argentina.
We are now using basically SFC650 (labor tickets input), PUR550, QMS550,
PUR650 and INV500.
Has anyone done this? If so, what did you come up with? Is it easy to
implement? What were the results like? Any idea?

Thank you so much.

Jose Villarreal.
