I had that issue on a few of the exchanges did you notice if the full cost went into the line item after the core was returned and then the Invoice posted as that is where i found the issue if you returned a core before the original invoice was posted it would change the Accum. cost on the SO to the full original Stockline cost
so to avoid this i just selected in the inventory wet up to have the invoice posted before allowing the core to be returned
-
the difference between the WIP and FG
FG: shows when the component has been Billed out but has not been posted – it has a WO bill for the item
WIP: shows when the Unit is still active and open – or has not been invoiced out
i hope this helps

Member04/03/2017 at 5:38 AM in reply to: TRACK EXTERNAL WORK ORDERS WITH SHOP CONTROL MODULEthere are a few ways you can tackle this but just keep in mind the Shop control module is meant to track parts and labor for items you are doing the work ( but it is the only module that lets you control a teardown and break down a part)
we do manage repairs and do it through the Brokered Repairs Sales Order like Abigail mentioned above
if you send me a example of one of your transactions I might be able to better help by understanding what you need to get out of it since the Shop control module if very elaborate and can get complicated quickly

Jason
would it be possible to share this report with me as well
-
thank you that is what I ended up doing I was just trying to see what the Inspected Disposition actually is good for and if it would work for item that just need a simple inspection to determine it’s airworthiness
-
yes that is what we are looking for
but when I tried doing the inspection Disposition it did not allow me to change the Stock line Condition form AR to Inspected, and since we have the system set up to not allow AR units to be linked I could not get the stock line to reserve with out doing a manual stock adjustment
-
I didn’t think merge would be good but like the templates and charges and most of the other table there is a Historical Option so that it doesn’t show up any more but doesn’t effect old Work Orders this is the Only Table I see that does not have an option to make the information historical
-
that is good advise but for what I was looking for it didn’t work
I spoke with quantum about it to maybe do an Enhancement since the skills is really the only table you are not able to make information Historical or merge items together
and that is what I am trying to do ( since we have about 30 skills listed and I really want to get it down to 5 or 6 basic skills) and get ride of the duplicates
-
if you dive into the Work Package’s you can set up Programs but that is very detailed and is really meant for Aircraft or Engine maintenance
the Service alerts work by sending an email when an External Work order is made ( you have to have the email addresses set up in the User profiles) so if done correctly it will let someone know when opened
another route you can go is through the Part warning and set it to give a warning message every time a WO is opened for that particular part number that should alert who ever is opening the work order
you can also set up the WO to not open if no valid Manual is found (not sure if you already control Manuals through Quantum)
hope this helps as I have been trying to do the same thing
-
thank you this does help
we do something similar to that now but i was hoping there was a way to automate the quote like they do with Stockmarket so it was basically one button and done
-
that is what i wanted to see as we already use the Stockmarket and the EDI but we get a lot of request through ILS and Partsbase so we were trying to save a little time
-
Thank you guys for all your help I will start playing with the different options and let management see which way works best for them
-
thank you
I am still new to this Advanced Billing how do you set up the Task method
I have played around a bit with adding in the labor and parts but I did not see the option to Break it down by Task
-
thank you for the feed back
can I ask how do you use the Task Method
since I think at this time trying to do Billing groups would be to much

we have been using the Fuji active cameras (water, dust, and shock proof) they seem to hold up decently and are twain compliant
it seems that any camera will work as long as it is twain compliant and a plug in play camera meaning there is no special software to install
-
I will try that how do you set it up in the system
-
Thank you Henrik I did revoke access to open work orders but there is a back door they can still open a closed Work order through the quick update – status option : I think the issue is that they use to many WO statuses and because of that I cant full revoke access as it will take away the ability to change the status from one open status to another open status
I was just seeing if anyone had any luck or had done these security measures before

Member08/08/2016 at 7:31 AM in reply to: PROPER WAY TO HANDLE A SUB-COMPONENT THAT THAT HAS TO BE REPLACEDI was able to do some test runs the reserving of stock when the other unit is still on the repair order works perfect and as far as the cost there is an option under the WO setup to have the repair cost be added as a Misc charge . So when you receive the unit from the RO it goes into stock at 0 cost and a Misc. charge is added to the WO for what ever cost was in the repair actually is easy and works perfect cause no links are broken and you have a clean view of the entire transaction and costs

I thought I was going to have to use the PO exchange some how I was just not sure if it would work correctly and how to get the other unit off of the WO

Member06/09/2016 at 11:00 AM in reply to: PROPER WAY TO HANDLE A SUB-COMPONENT THAT THAT HAS TO BE REPLACEDI was wondering about the BOM
say for instance the Main Component is a Thrust reverser
you take an Actuator off send it to the shop but it becomes BER and the customer supplies you with another ( but needs the BER unit Back)
But you already did a turn-in for the original with a disposition of Repair
how would you do the Exchange of the first unit getting it out of the system and brining in the New unit while capturing all associated cost and keeping a good trail for tracking and trace purposes

I know this is an old thread but I have recently started having this issue when I expense a repair for a cost plus bill back it will not take into consideration the piece parts until the repair is returned then the repair line added to the sales order has the proper cost I.E. repair cost plus piece parts in the Type R line item in the sales order but the piece parts do not get expensed and instead are added to the stock line has there been any updates or fixes to this issue since the original thread was created
