Allow Change of Quantity Units

Specifies if the quantity unit of orders can be changed.

If deactivated by default the quantity unit 'Number of articles' (NAR) is used on this line. Order Management will fail on requests with any other quantity unit.

In the clients changing of the quantity unit is prohibited.

Allow Increments by Station Order State

Indicates for which states of a station order the station counters can be incremented.

When no station order with an allowed state is found an error is raised or a negative response is created and the station counter is not incremented (depends on the technical setting 'ThrowWhenStationOrderNotFound' and the 'Line Type').

Allow Order State "Unplanned"

pecifies whether unplanned orders can be used in this line.

If disabled, the state of an order can not be changed to 'Unplanned' and orders in that state are not displayed in the order list.

Allow Pause Order

Specifies whether it is allowed to pause orders.

If pausing an order is not allowed, the paused orders are not shown in the order list and the context menu entry for pausing an order is hidden.

BOM Filter

Filter to be used when requesting the BOM from PSM.

No Line Filter: Custom Building plans are not filtered by the line number.

Filter for 'Area': Custom Building Plans are filtered by the Area. The Area in Product Setup Management must match the line number from Order Management.

Filter for 'Available Lines': Custom Building Plans are filtered by Available Lines. The list of Available Lines in Product Setup Management must contain the line number from Order Management.

Check Typedata

Activates the check for missing typedata on order activation. If typedata are missing the user can still decide to activate the order.

Counter Types for finishing an order

Specifies the types of the station counter, on which a check is performed if the station order and order is fully produced. The check is performed on 'Increment Counter' on automatic lines.

Station order and order are finished depending on how the station order on the call to 'IncrementCounter' is identified.

- On identification by order number or confirmation number:

The station order will be set to 'Finished' if it has reached the target quantity. The order will be finished, when the station order on the first station is finished.

- On identification by type number:

The station order is kept 'Active' when the target quantity was reached. If 'Increment Counter' is called for a fully produced station order it is checked if there is a matching followup order. This order will be activated, otherwise it is possible to overproduce the current station order. The order will be closed, when all station orders reached the target quantity and have the same counter.

When 'OK' is selected, the station order will be finished when the OK counter exceeds the order quantity.

When 'OK and NOK' is selected, the station order will be finished when the sum of OK and NOK counter exceeds the order quantity.

Enable Line Material Cache

nables the periodic fetching of material in the Material Management cache. The Cache is used by the REST interface (MaterialUsageInfo) for the material status (needed or not needed).

ERP Confirmation Execution Mode

Indicates how the ERP confirmation should be performed.

ERP Confirmation Mode

Specifies if the ERP confirmation is performed by 'Increment Counter' or 'Update Counter'.

Never: No confirmation is performed.

Automatic: All signals are available (Increment Counter from each station and material consumption from each station).

Automatic without material: Increment Counter from each station is reported but no material consumption. The material consumption is simulated using the count from the Increment Counter and the available parts list.

Manual (Multiple Active Orders): There is only one Increment Counter signal and also only from the first station. Multiple orders in the line can be active at the same time.

Manual (Single Active Order): There is only one Increment Counter signal and also only from the first station. Only a single order in the line can be active.

Look Back Period (Planning System ProCon SyncV1)

he look back period ([d.]hh:mm:ss) for requesting production plans to synchronize orders from ProCon.

The 'updateStartTime' parameter in ProCon will be set from the synchronization time minus the configured value.

Whether the synchronization is active or not in general is controlled by the 'Order Synchronization Mode'.

This parameter is not used when the 'Order Synchronization Mode' is set to 'with Planning System V2 (event based)'.

Look Forward Period (Planning System ProCon SyncV1)

he look forward period ([d.]hh:mm:ss) for requesting production plans to synchronize orders from ProCon.

The 'updateEndTime' parameter in ProCon will be set from the synchronization time plus the configured value.

Whether the synchronization is active or not in general is controlled by the 'Order Synchronization Mode'.

This parameter is not used when the 'Order Synchronization Mode' is set to 'with Planning System V2 (event based)'.

Look Forward Period (Production Planned Orders)

Specifies the time period ([d.]hh:mm:ss) for which orders (with scheduled start time within the period) should be returned when downloading planned production orders from ERP.

Default: '0.12:00:00'

If both the look forward and look back parameters are set to '0.00:00:00', no time filter will be used.

Maintenance Mode

If active and the parameter 'No Material Order in Maintenance' is set in the global parameters, no material requisition is triggered. The station counter is not increased.

Maintenance mode can also be enabled and disabled in the order view for scheduled orders if the client is configured to allow this.

Minimal Station Confirmation Level

The value determines which ERP station orders are to be created in OrderManagement

Selecting a value means, that all station orders with the selected confirmation level or a higher confirmation level are created.

E.g. if '1 - Possible' is selected, then all station orders with confirmation level '1 - Possible', '2 - Requested' or '3 - Required' are created.

Move Order Allowed (State)

Indicates the states, in which an order can be moved. If moving an active order is allowed, they don't necessarily have to be in first position.

Order Activation Mode

Defines if an order can be activated when performing a Station Counter Increment ('IncrementCounter'):

Disabled: No orders are activated.

Only in sequence: Only the topmost released order can be activated.

Force: Released orders can be activated regardless of the sequence.

Order Auto Release Mode

Specifies whether orders in state 'Planned' of the line will be released automatically.

Disabled: No orders will be released automatically.

All orders: Planned orders will be checked for an automatic release periodically. If the 'BOM Type' is set to 'Disabled', all planned orders with a type number set will be released. If the 'BOM Type' is set to a different value, orders will be released if a bill of material (BOM) can be retrieved. A BOM is retrieved based on the type number, setup and revision data of the order.

By Material state: Orders are automatically released when the calculation determines that material is available to start the order. This is the case, if at least one piece of the required type number is set up in each track where material is consumed according to the parts list.

This only works if a BOM type is set, SrS is enabled for the line and generally in OrderManagement, the option Material calculation for non-released orders is enabled and the preview duration selected is sufficiently large to allow the non-released orders to fall into the preview period.

Order Number Generation Mode

Specifies the mode for generating new order numbers.

Internal: Order numbers are generated internally in Order Management.

Order numbers must be unique for all orders of all lines.

Order Synchronization Mode

Specifies whether and with which external systems orders will be synchronized.

Disabled: No orders will be synchronized.

With Planning System ProCon: Orders will be synchronized only with ProCon (automatically).

With Planning System ProCon and ERP Production Planned Orders (Current Line): Orders will be synchronized with ProCon and supplemented with data from Series Production Orders (ERP: Production Planned Orders) (automatically). Orders are filtered by line in the ERP system.

With Planning System ProCon and ERP Production Planned Orders (All Lines): Orders will be synchronized with ProCon and supplemented with data from Series Production Orders (ERP: Production Planned Orders) (automatically). Orders are not filtered by line in the ERP system.

With Planning System ProCon and ERP Production Orders: Orders will be synchronized with ProCon and supplemented with data from Contract Production Orders (ERP: Production Orders) (automatically).

With ERP Production Planned Orders (Current Line): Order synchronization for Series Production Orders (ERP: Production Planned Orders) can be triggered manually in the Orders View Workspace. Orders are filtered by line in the ERP system.

With ERP Production Planned Orders (All Lines): Order synchronization for Series Production Orders (ERP: Production Planned Orders) can be triggered manually in the Orders View Workspace. Orders are not filtered by line in the ERP system.

With ERP Production Orders: Order synchronization for Contract Production Orders (ERP: Production Orders) from the current line can be triggered manually in the Orders View Workspace.

With ERP Sales: Currently not used.

With Planning System V2 (event based): Orders will be synchronized to Order Management through events sent by ProCon (automatically).

Overproduction Warning Threshold

Threshold for writing a Log Message when the produced quantity is over the target quantity by the configured percentage.

Pause Order Below Threshold

Indicates if an order can be paused instead of finishing it when another order is started while the active is not yet finished.

When enabled, 'Pause Order Threshold' is evaluated to determine whether the order should be paused or finished.

This parameter only takes effect, if pausing orders is allowed for the line by 'Allow Pause Order'.

Pause Order Threshold

Threshold to pause an order instead of finishing it when another order is started while the active is not yet finished.

When 'Pause Order Below Threshold' is enabled and the percentage of the already produced quantity in relation to the target quantity is below the configured value the order will be paused.

Planning System Line Identifier

Specifies the line identifier which is used to query the external planning system (e.g. Procon) when synchronizing orders. If no value is specified, the line number is used instead.

Planning System Type Number Regex

Defines a regular expression that is used to extract type number and Packaging Index from the type number during synchronization from a planning system (e.g. Procon).

If the regex contains groups, the groups with the name 'TYPE_NUMBER' and 'PACKAGING_INDEX' are used for the extraction.

If there are no groups or the required group name (TYPE_NUMBER) is missing, the whole match is used as the extracted value for the Type Number.

If the regex is empty, the whole incoming Type Number is used as the Type Number and the Packaging Index is left empty.

Packaging Index should preferably be a part of the Type Number and in this case, Packaging Index is empty. In this case, the group 'PACKAGING_INDEX' need not be defined in the regex.

Examples:

With groups: ^(?<TYPE_NUMBER>[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,10})(?<PACKAGING_INDEX>[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,})?

Without groups (only sets the Type Number): [0-9a-zA-Z]{1,10}

If the value is left blank, then all states are taken into account.

Whether the synchronization is active or not in general is controlled by the 'Order Synchronization Mode'.

When a order changes to a state not in this list, the order gets deleted in Order Management (except this is not allowed because of the state of the order in Order Management).

Station Orders Creation

Specifies whether and how station orders are created.

Synchronize Orders in Frozen Zone (Planning System)

Enables or disables the synchronization of orders from Planning System (e.g. ProCon). This parameter additionally enables the synchronization of orders in the Frozen Zone.

Whether the synchronization is active or not in general is controlled by the 'Order Synchronization Mode'.

See also 'Forecast Duration' for more information about the Frozen Zone.

Values: Disabled, Internal, PSM - Building Plan - by Type Number, PSM - Building Plan - Revision Handling, ASM, PSM - Packaging, PanaCIM und PSM - Product Setup - Trigger Explosion

In case of the option 'Internal', the part lists must be passed on to OrderManagement in advance from some external system automatically. This is used, for example, if the parts lists originate from Panasonic machines.

If PSM - Packaging is selected, the setting No Setup must be set for all stations of the line so that orders can be released.

If PSM - Building Plan - Revision Handling is selected, the building plan will be retrieved using the revision and the production version.

Cart Management active

Enable or disable the Cart Management menu

In the Cart Management menu, a material is set up for carts and the setup of an order refers to a setup in the Cart Management menu.

Check Cart Management Setup Completion

Specifies if the setup configuration in Cart Management is checked for completeness when releasing an order. A setup is complete, if a cart is configured for every active table.

Disabled: The setup configuration is not checked.

Warning: If a cart is missing in the configuration, a warning message is displayed. The order can still be released.

Error: If a cart is missing in the configuration, an error message is displayed. The order can not be released.

This parameter is only considered, if Cart Management is active for the line

Consider Station Orders for Finished Orders

Indicates whether station orders that belong to finished orders should be considered in the material calculation.

If this parameter is activated, needed Material for finished orders is ordered, if there are associated station orders in state created or active.

No material is ordered for cancelled orders.

activating this parameter does not have an influence on the considered forecast period for active and released orders.

Consider Transport Order Material History

If checked the Material Calculation uses transport order material history to exclude already delivered transport orders which have not been marked as delivered. All the materials on the line are requested during material calculation and if a material is found which is associated to a open transport order item it will be marked as delivered.

Logistic Management and ERP Connectivity must be configured to write Mat-Ids into the material history during pickup.

Create Transport Order (Return Material)

When enabled a transport order will be created when returning material, otherwise a transfer is triggered in ERP.

Create Transport Order (Transfer Material)

When enabled a transport order will be created when transferring material between depots, otherwise a transfer is triggered in ERP.

Indicates whether the CustomizeBillOfMaterial workflow adjusts the bill of material when an order is released. For example, this can be used to add PCBs to the bill of material.

Customize BOM - Error Handling

pecifies how errors are handled that occur while customizing the bill of material when releasing an order.

Error: If customizing fails a message is displayed. The order is not released.

Warning: If customizing fails a message is displayed. The user can decide to release the order with the unmodified bill of material.

Ignore: If customizing fails the order is released with the unmodified bill of material. No message is displayed.

This parameter is only considered, if Customize Bill of Material is enabled for the line.

Don't Cancel Created Requisitions

Forbid deletion of Created Material Orders in general.

Disabled: All Material Orders with a transport order status of New or Requested can be canceled. Material Orders in Created status can only be cancelled when all their Transport Order Items are in state New or Cancelled. (Default)

Enabled: Only Material Orders with a Transport Order status of New or Requested can be cancelled.

Enable Automatic Emergency Orders

Activates automatic reordering as an emergency order for orders that could not be created in the Logistic Management service. (Default: False)

ERP Printer Name

The name of the printer on which the transport orders triggered by OrderManagement (for material orders) are to be printed via SAP.

Forecast duration [ minutes ]

Specifies the time period to be covered by the material calculation (in minutes).

This defines also how big the Frozen Zone is. Orders which are inside the Frozen Zone or partially in the Frozen Zone need special permission to be edited and it can be configured they are not changed by order synchronization.

Goods Receipt Number (Return Material)

When returning material to the warehouse: Default value for 'Good Receipt ID' when it is not set by the interface.

In the 'Return Material' interface the 'GoodReceiptNumber' can be set. If it is not set this default value is used for triggering the request in ERP. Normally this value is set from the Material Management 'ERP ID' of the material.

Something similar happens for the parameter 'GoodsReceiptItemNumber'. This value is normally set from the Material Management 'SAP Item Receipt Number' ('SapGoodsReceiptItemNumber') of the material.

Handle Mode for Missing Material Reservations

Specifies how to proceed with material reservations whose material could no longer be found at the expected location.

Normal Calculation : Normal material calculation is in progress. Reservations are made as soon as material can be reserved again; otherwise, a (normal) material order is triggered.

Emergency Order Material: An emergency order is triggered for the missing material.

Line Server Endpoint (ASM)

Specifies the endpoint address (hostname) for the ASM server of this line. This server is used to retrieve the bill of material, when the 'BOM Type' is set to 'ASM'.

The server for authenticating with ASM can be configured through the technical settings (see operations manual).

Line Server Endpoint (PanaCIM)

Specifies the endpoint address (hostname) for the PanaCIM server of this line. This server is used to retrieve the bill of material, when the 'BOM Type' is set to 'PanaCIM'.

The server for authenticating with PanaCIM can be configured through the technical settings (see operations manual).

Material Calculation for unreleased Orders

Specifies whether the material calculation is also performed for planned (and not only for released) orders.

Material Order Cycle

Time interval (hh:mm:ss) at which the automatic material order is triggered.

This specifies times relative to the start time.

Material Order Mode

Specifies whether material should be ordered manually via 'Trigger material order' or automatically.

Material Order Offset

Time (hh:mm:ss) by which the start of material orders is delayed in automatic mode. This is done relative to the cycle defined in Material Order Cycle.

This means that the material orders for different lines are temporally separated by different values, thus evening out a large number of orders for many lines.

Material ordering and order material status blacklist

Can contain a semicolon-separated list of material numbers that are not included in the calculation and in the process of calculating the order material status. No material orders are then triggered for these materials.

Material Reservation Algorithm

The algorithm that determines in which order the materials are reserved. (Material in climate cabinet will always be reserved before material in storage locations.)

By Expiration Date: The materials will be reserved in the order of their expiration date.

By Closest Quantity: The material with the next larger quantity than required will be selected. If there is no material, the biggest Quantity will be reserved.

Material Reservation Time

[ minutes ]

Specifies how long material is reserved for (in minutes). If this time has elapsed, the procedure continues after setting it to the Missing Reserved Material mode.

This setting applies only to reserved materials that are not yet in delivery. This setting will only be used when the 'Material Reservation Time' setting is not set under the location settings.

Material Reservation Time 'in Delivery' [ minutes ]

Specifies the expiration time in minutes for material reservations with the status in delivery. If this time has elapsed, the procedure continues after setting it to the Missing Reserved Material mode.

The time counts from the start of the reservation, not from the start of the delivery. This value should always be greater than the value in Material Reservation Duration, otherwise reservations transitioning to the status in delivery may expire immediately. This setting will only be used when the "Material

Reservation Time 'in Delivery' " setting is not set under the location settings.

Material Splice Blacklist

Can contain a semicolon-separated list of material numbers that are not included in the splice prediction.

Max Retries (Material Demands)

The maximum number of repetitions for a Material Demand. If the maximum number of retries is exceeded, the Material Demand is cancelled without fulfilling it.

For example, a Material Demand is repeated when an order fails and it is replaced with a new order.

Maximum Order

If this number of required materials is exceeded for a single setup, no orders for that setup will be triggered. Not even for partial quantities.

Material orders can still be triggered manually in the Material Handling workspace. The limit does not apply to these manual orders.

In certain cases, this can prevent large quantities of material that are not required at all from being ordered, e.g. due to an input error.

Maximum Station Counter Difference

The maximum permissible difference in counter readings between stations for the same order. This is evaluated within the material calculation. If the maximum difference is exceeded a line warning is written.

Movement Code (Return Material)

Movement code for returning material to the warehouse.

Movement Code (Transfer Material)

Movement code for transferring material between depots.

MSD Level Filter

Specifies the MSD levels for which the exposure time for materials is retrieved from Material Management when filling the Line Material Cache. If no values are specified, all levels will be taken into account.

This is only evaluated when 'Enable Line Material Cache' and 'Retrieve Exposure Times' are active.

Multiple Setup Mode

Different setups are possible when enabled and material used on different lines can be correctly included in the calculation. The parameter causes that offline mounted material will also be taken into account by material calculation.

In addition, material whose StationIndex indicates that it is being used offline is also considered. Offline material is marked with Station Index 2 and additionally Line Number, WorkPos and the first character of the station info can differ.

Example:

Location-ID Online: 0045 0050 0001 1 0001 0001

Location-ID Offline:

0045 0050 0002 1 0000 0001

Station-Info Online: 10010L

Station-Info Offline: 00010L

If Cart Management is enabled, this parameter should also always be enabled, as otherwise the material will not be considered correctly if the cart is not on the line.

Offline Setup Line

Specifies whether the line is used for offline material setup and not for production. An offline setup line is linked to a normal line in the order view. Here, offline materials can be prepared and orders and their material status can be used to check whether the material is fully equipped

Profile Name (PanaCIM)

Specifies the profile name that is sent to PanaCIM, when retrieving a bill of material for this line (best cart report). This parameter is only used when the 'BOM Type' is set to 'PanaCIM'.

Rest Strap Length [ mm ]

Minimum belt length required to splice material (in mm).

Relevant for the calculation of how much material is required and when.

Retrieve Exposure Times

Enables or disables exposure time retrieval for materials from Material Management for the 'Line Material Cache'. This is only evaluated when Enable Line Material Cache is active.

Route Id (PanaCIM)

Specifies the route id that is sent to PanaCIM, when retrieving a bill of material for this line. This parameter is only used when the 'BOM Type' is set to 'PanaCIM'.

Route Name (PanaCIM)

Specifies the route name that is sent to PanaCIM, when retrieving a bill of material for this line. This parameter is only used when the 'BOM Type' is set to 'PanaCIM'.

Side Information

Side Information (Used only in special cases)

SRS Active

Activates the Smart Replenishment service which performs the material calculation among other things.

Threshold Rest Strap Length for missing material (mm)

If the calculation for the material need exceeds this minimal strap length (in mm), additional material will be considered or ordered if required. The value will be converted to a quantity for each material individually by using the material's pitch value (Order View -> Bill Of Material -> Column 'Pitch'). The rest strap length is the maximum of the threshold for missing material.

The threshold has no effect when set to 0.

Example:

When the rest strap length is set to 2000 mm.This parameter can be set to 500 mm.

In this case OrderManagement will not consider or order material, as long as the 1500 mm of rest strap length will be enough for the material need.

It will consider or order material when the 1500 mm are exceeded for the full amount of needed material by orders plus rest strap length.

The difference to just decrease the rest strap length is, when the Threshold is reached we order the full rest strap length instead of the decreased one. So the material from rest strap length can be used for production as long as we don't need more than the threshold.

Unloading Point (Return Material)

Unloading point for returning material to the warehouse.

Unloading Point Expression

Specifies how the name of the Unloading Point is generated. When nothing is specified, the Unloading Point from the Handover settings is used.

E.g.: "L{0:D2} S{1:D3} P{2}" contains two decimal characters for the line number, three decimal characters for the station number, and two characters for the position.

Update Cart Management Setup on Release

Specifies if the Cart Management setup is fetched and updated in addition to the BOM when an order is released.

Currently only available for BOM Type ASM and PanaCIM.

The Cart Management setup is only used if Cart Management is enabled for the line.

Send ERP feedback

Enable or disable feedback to the ERP system

The ERP Feedback Mode line parameter must be activated.

First station

Activate or deactivate as the first station where material is made available for production

Only one First Station can be set per line.

No setup

Enable or disable the inclusion of materials in the material calculation if this location does not have a setup

The station must not be in the station groups used if the Cart Management parameter is active for the line.

Perform ERP Confirmation

Specifies if confirmations to ERP are performed on this station. This parameter is only considered, if the confirmation is enabled for the line by 'ERP Confirmation Mode'.

Production Step

Defines the production step of the station. In purely sequential production, the stations are sorted in ascending order as a part passes through them. If two stations have the same production step, they are treated as parallel stations. Parallel station means that a part only passes through one of the parallel stations. The counters of parallel stations are summarized for this production step.

The value can be changed by drag and drop in the line selection. If stations are dragged onto each other, they are marked as parallel stations.

The changes have no effect on existing station orders. To apply the changes manually to existing station orders, the order can be activated again.

Publish Station Counter Messages (Public)

Specifies whether messages about a changed station counter are published to the public message bus for synchronizing changes to other IAS modules (e.g. Packaging Control).

For messages to be sent, the connection to the public message broker must be configured through technical settings (see operations manual).

If enabled, new messages are published after a change of the station counter with the delay specified in Publish Station Counter Messages Delay [Seconds] and contains the current station counter.

Publish Station Counter Messages Delay [Seconds]

Specifies the delay after which the station counter messages are published. During the delay, several messages are buffered and then published together to reduce the total number of messages.

Material Reservation Time [minutes]

Specifies how long material is reserved for (in minutes). If this time has elapsed, the procedure continues after setting it to the Missing Reserved Material mode.

This setting applies only to reserved materials that are not yet in delivery. For materials in delivery, the significant value is that of Material Reservation Time "in Delivery".

Material Reservation Time "In Delivery” [minutes]

Specifies the expiration time in minutes for material reservations with the status in delivery. If this time has elapsed, the procedure continues after setting it to the Missing Reserved Material mode. The time counts from the start of the reservation, not from the start of the delivery. This value should always be greater than the value in Material Reservation Duration, otherwise reservations transitioning to the status in delivery may expire immediately.
