Re: (no subject)

Michael,

We had to do something like that a long time ago, and I couldn't find a
user exit.  So what I did was take the Print Mfg Orders Released program
(AMIPHD) and change it to put a call to an external program, a CL that let
me do maintenance.  That works for changes you want to make before the
order is released.  If you need to do work after the order is released (we
had to do that too, and in a lot of circumstances, it's a lot cleaner), do
the same time to programs AMI4H and AMI4I, the shop packet print programs.

Since these are just print programs, you aren't actually changing MAPICS
logic - fairly safe.

Say I have Finished Good Part 433

It's BOM calls for component
Part 4500XX              10 Qty Per

Or it could use any combination of
Part 4500AA 6 qty per and 4500BB 4 qty per
Part 4500CC 8 qty per and 4500DD 2 qty per
Part 4500AA 4 qty per and 4500DD 6 qty per
Etc...

Does anyone know of a user exit during MO creation?  We need to check the
Item availability of these combinations and select the one where we have
the
most on-hand to be released to the MO.

I thought of using alternate BOM's and have the planner check each combo
but
that would be to much work.

Any ideas would KBC help in this situation?
