Re: How can I detect when labor is first charged?

Cork,

Another alternative is to place a trigger on MOTRAN.  MOTRAN gets updated
right away.  You will not have to wait for the prepare step.

Hi group!

I have a project request to automatically perform maintenance to an order
whenever labor is charged to an order for the very first time.  It may not
be the first operation, but it has to be the first time ANY operation has
labor posted to it (setup or run).  I can't use Actual Start Date in MOMAST
- that would also be updated when inventory is posted for the first time.
This project HAS to be when labor was first charged.

We use PLM&C (or MDCC, whichever), running through PM&C.  MAPICS/XA R6.

Has anyone ever had to do this?   And if so, how did you detect when labor
was first charged?
