Re: BPCS Outside Operations

Hi Ronald.

If the FRT.RTOFLG field is set to "1" which
means it is an outside operation, when the shop order
is created the corresponding FOD.OSTAT will be
"1".

If FOD.OSTAT is "1" this in turn will allow
you to create a Purchase Order for the Outside
Services where HPO.HOUTS (Outside Operation P.O.) will
be "Y", HPO.HSHOP (Shop order for outside
P.O.) will be the Shop Order # in question and
HPO.HOPER (Operation for outside P.O.) the outside
operation within that shop order.  The item in that
Purchase Order will have to be the same as the one
being produced in the Shop Order.

When the services are completed you must receive the
PO with transaction type 00 instead of U.  That will
register the transaction but will not increase your
inventory of the item.  The inventory of the item will
increase when you report the shop order as completed
(or the operation completed if you track WIP).

This procedure will allow 2 things:
1. Be able to pay the outside processor for his/her
services through BPCS AP (you need a received PO to
pay someone).
2. Will add the cost of the Outside Operation to the
total cost of the product being produced.

I hope this is not too confusing, if you need some
more clarification you can call me at 973-725-4551.

Regards,

Ruben.
