Understanding Work Order Item Fulfillment from PeopleSoft Inventory

PeopleSoft Maintenance Management manages the maintenance and repair of a capitalized asset. Maintenance and repair of an asset may require parts from PeopleSoft Inventory. Work Orders from PeopleSoft Maintenance Management can place demand for items into a PeopleSoft Inventory business unit. Inventory fulfills the work order item using the Fulfill Work Order menu. The fulfillment steps of a work order item are different from the fulfillment flow of a sales order or a material stock request from other demand sources. The process flow is:

A work order is created in PeopleSoft Maintenance Management with items to be fulfilled from inventory. A work order is a document authorizing work to be performed and cost to be incurred. Typically, work orders are generated to dispatch labor and material resources to perform construction tasks and maintenance related activities and to track the associated costs. A work order consists of one or more work order tasks. A task defines an individual activity to be performed. A task includes the labor and material resources needed; including a list of items needed from PeopleSoft Inventory. A task can require various resource types. Inventory items always have the resource type of material. A work order task could also include materials to be purchased using PeopleSoft Purchasing.
If a work order task contains inventory item IDs, then the items are committed to PeopleSoft Inventory based on the inventory commit rule located in PeopleSoft Maintenance Management on the Define Shop-Ship Information page or the Work Order Definition-Integration page. A PeopleSoft Maintenance Management business unit defines the PeopleSoft Inventory business unit to be used for fulfillment. When a work order part is committed to inventory, then the item is placed in the demand fulfillment (IN_DEMAND) table, displayed in the Product/Item Availability page, and used by the Create Replenishment Requests process. A commit for a work order item does not reduce the item's available quantity in the inventory business unit.

When work order parts are committed to PeopleSoft Inventory, they are inserted as demand lines into the IN_DEMAND table with a demand source of WM and a fulfillment state (IN_FULFILL_STATE) of pending. Work order demand lines do not follow the same fulfillment process as demand lines from sales orders or material stock requests. Instead, work order demand lines stay in the pending state during picking. When the work order task is set to a status of completed, then the work order demand line in PeopleSoft Inventory is set to the depleted state. The fulfillment states of unfulfilled, releasable, released, confirmed, and shipped are not used for work order demand lines.

There are two ways to fulfill work orders using PeopleSoft Inventory. The method used depends on the needs of your environment. You can:
- Create a pick plan, pick stock from the warehouse based on the pick plan, and then issue the items to the work order.
- Issue items to the work order without generating a pick plan.
Once the items are issued from the PeopleSoft Inventory business unit, they can be picked up by a technician or delivered directly to a job site.
Once the work is completed, the technician can return any unused material back to the Inventory business unit.

Work Order Items

In order to put an item ID on a work order, the item must be in active, hold, or discontinued status on the Define Item component and, for inventory items, on the Define Business Unit Item component. Staged date items and configured items are not allowed on a work order parts list. PeopleSoft Supply Planning does not recognize items on a work order parts list as a demand source.

Pegging Work Orders

A work order inventory schedule row can be pegged to a requisition, purchase order, or interunit transfer. Pegging enables you to secure parts that may be in short supply or special order. Once the parts are received and putaway into the inventory business unit, you can create a pick plan or issue the parts. When pegged quantity is putaway, a notification is sent to the Work Order Contact person. If you plan to peg work order lines, it is important to remember that the open pegged quantity is not available on the Work Order Pick Plan or the Issue to Work Orders component. If there is available quantity in the inventory business unit and you have open pegged quantity on the work order line, then you cannot issue the available quantity to fulfill the pegged quantity. You must first clear the peg between the work order line and the supply source using the Pegging Workbench, then issue the available quantity. For example, if the work order line requires 10 units and you have pegged 6 units, then the Work Order Pick Plan or the Issue to Work Orders component display 4 units to issue.

Planning Work Order Needs Using Inventory Replenishment

The items needed to repair or maintain assets might be stored in your warehouse on a regular basis or only ordered when needed. PeopleSoft replenishment includes the Demand Quantity option to replenish stock based on the outstanding demand from all sources, including work orders. This replenishment method can be defined for the entire inventory business unit or just for specific items within the business unit. Other replenishment options include, static reorder point, EOQ, or minimum/maximum.

Creating a Pick Plan for Work Order Items

One of the ways to issue items to a work order technician is to generate a pick plan, physically pick the items, and then issue the items to the work order. This section discusses generating the pick plan. The pick plan is an optional step in PeopleSoft Inventory, the use of it depends on your environment. The Work Order Pick Plan process (IN_ALM_PICK ) creates the pick batch ID and allocations, then generates the INS6010 pick plan report. The pick plan can generate the material storage locations to pick from using the directed picking rules, a specific material storage location, or the default shipping location. If the Work Order Pick Plan process errors during processing, use the Release Inventory Locks page to release the records from processing.

When creating the pick plan using the Work Order Pick Plan process, you can:

Create hard allocations to stock at specific material storage locations to fulfill the work order item quantity (push pick plan). If the item is defined as a soft-reserve item, then the item quantity is also soft-reserved at the business unit and item level.
Suggest material storage locations with stock to fulfill the work order item quantity (pull pick plan).
Reprint a previously generated pick plan.

A work order pick plan inserts the pick batch ID and pick line on the work order demand line in the IN_DEMAND table. This enables the user to access these lines on the Issue to Work Orders component when using an Issue Option that includes a pick list. A work order demand line can only be on one pick plan at a time. If you are using work order pick plans, it is important to monitor any remaining unpicked quantities. For example, if you have 20 units for a work order line displayed on the pick plan and you issue only 15 units, then the system needs to be told what to do with the remaining 5 units. The unpicked quantity remains on the pick plan until you issue or clear the quantity on the Issue to Work Orders component.

If the work order's inventory commit rule is to commit when the pick list is created, then only work order items with a scheduled need date within the pick plan's date selection are committed. For example, let's assume a work order contains item ID 10001 with a scheduled need date of today and also item ID 10005 with a scheduled need date of next week. If the work order pick plan is run for a scheduled need date of today, then item ID 10001 is committed to inventory's IN_DEMAND table but not item ID 10005.

Pages Used to Create a Pick Plan for Work Order Items

Page Name	Object Name	Navigation	Usage
Work Order Pick Plan	RUN_IN_WO_PICK	Inventory, Fulfill Work Orders, Create Work Order Pick Plan	Enter parameters to generate a pick plan for items needed for a work order.
Report Options	IN_WO_PICK_OPT_SEC	Select the Report Options link on the Work Order Pick Plan page.	Define additional options for the report generated by the Work Order Pick Plan process.

Generating a Work Order Pick Plan

Access the Work Order Pick Plan process page.

Unit

Enter the PeopleSoft Inventory business unit for generating the pick plan.

Allocation/Picking Options

Action

Defines the action to be taken when generating the pick plan. The options are:

Create Allocations: The process uses the specified picking rules to determine the most appropriate material storage location from which to pick each item, then creates an allocation to reserve the requisite quantity in the storage location. This is known as a push or system-defined picking plan. The allocated quantity is recorded in the PHYSICAL_INV table; reducing the available quantity for the bin location. If the item is defined as a soft-reserve item, then the item quantity is also soft-reserved at the business unit and item level, reducing the available quantity for the business unit.
Make Suggestions: The process suggests material storage locations from which to pick each item but does not make an allocation. Because there is no allocation of quantity, the picker is not limited to a specific location. When picking is complete, the picker enters the actual storage location information using the Issue to Work Orders component. This is known as a pull or user-defined picking plan.
Regenerate Output: The process reprints one or more pick plans that have already been created. Enter the pick batch ID or a range of pick plan IDs in this group box in the Pick Batch ID and To fields. You can also enter the Release Instance number of the original process instead.

Log Unpicked Lines

Select to assign the pick batch ID to the work order lines (parts) that do not have enough available quantity in the inventory business unit. Inserting the pick batch ID on the IN_DEMAND line enables the user to access these lines on the Issue to Work Orders component when using an Issue Option that includes a pick list.

If you selected the Log Unpicked Lines check box when you originally generated the pick list and then you reprinted the pick list using the Action of Regenerate Output:, the unfulfilled demand lines are reported.

Report Options

Click to access the Report Options page where you can define the print options for your pick plan.

Location Selection

These options determine the manner in which the process suggests material storage locations from which to pick stock.

Picking Rules	Select to use the picking rules defined by the picking algorithm entered in the Location Option field of the Setup Fulfillment-Order Release page or defined for the individual item on the Setup Item Fulfillment page.
Default Shipping Location	Select to use the Default Ship Location defined on the Setup Fulfillment-Shipping page or defined for the individual item on the Setup Item Fulfillment-Shipping Options page.
Specific Location	Select to define the material storage location in the fields to the right.
Single Location Only	Select to have the picking plan suggest only one material storage location for picking each demand line. You must select the Default Shipping Location or the Specific Location option to use this check box.

Picking Date Selection

To narrow the selection even further, you can release work order parts based on their Schedule Needed Date. This date is located on the Material tab of the Work Order-Schedules: Inventory page. For example, you might want to pick orders whose parts have a schedule needed date of today or through next week. These picking date selections can default from the Order Release Date/Time Select group box of the Setup Fulfillment-Order Release page.

Date Range

The process includes demand lines needed within the specified From and Thru parameters. For example, you could select work orders for picking that have schedule needed dates between Monday and Wednesday.

Lead Days

The process includes demand lines needed on or before today's date, plus the specified picking lead time entered in the Lead Days field. For example, you could select to picking orders needed tomorrow by entering 1 in the Lead Days field.

Note. If the business unit requires closure calendar validation for shipping activities as defined on the Closure Calendar page, and the schedule needed date falls on a defined closure date, the system adds one day for every closed day to the picking lead time to compare against the schedule needed date. Times are not included in these calculations.

Today

The process includes demand lines with a schedule needed date of today.

Order Selection

This group box can limit picking to a subset of the work orders meeting the selection criteria. Use the Select Orders button to retrieve all orders that match the search criteria entered above on this process page, then you can select individual orders to be released. This option is particularly useful when time is short or when you want to reduce the picking workload to small batches that are easily handled by a single picker.

Note. Although you select orders based on work order numbers rather than on specific order schedule lines, only schedules meeting the selection criteria are actually released.

When you save this process page after selecting individual orders in the Work Orders group box, PeopleSoft Inventory automatically assigns a unique pick release ID to the active run control and to each selected demand line. The run control will process only the demand lines associated with this pick release ID. If you do not select individual work orders in this group box, the run control processes all demand lines that meet the selection criteria.

The pick release ID gives you the flexibility to exit and reenter the process page without having to select the orders again. When you click the Select Orders button, the system retrieves any previously selected work orders in addition to those matching the current search criteria. The system assigns any new orders to the same pick release ID that you assigned to the original selections. After you run this run control the system resets the pick release ID to 0. The system also resets the ID for any demand lines that you cancel before running the process.

WO Unit, Shop, Work Order, and Task	Enter work order selection criteria to narrow the items displayed when the Select Orders button is used.
Select Orders	Click this button to open the Work Orders group box where you can select to release a subset of the work orders meeting the selection criteria.
Sel	Select the check box for each work order that you want to release.
Src BU	Identifies the PeopleSoft Maintenance Management business unit of the work order.

Selecting Report Options for the Pick Plan

Access the Report Options page.

The pick plan report always displays the unfulfilled quantity. If the entire quantity cannot be fulfilled, then the work order demand line appears in the unfulfilled section of the report. If the work order demand line can be partially fulfilled, then the unfulfilled quantity is displayed as another row on the pick plan report directly below the quantity that can be fulfilled.

Reporting Options

Picking Plan Only, Location Summary Only, and Picking Plan and Loc Summary (picking plan and location summary)	Select the version of the picking plan you’re printing. Location summary options are only available when you use the Action of Create Allocations on the Work Order Pick Plan page. You can print a Location Summary report either in addition to or instead of a full Picking Plan report. The Location Summary report sorts the picking plan according to the highest-level sort options and prints the order lines and the item quantity to pick from each material storage location. The layout of the printed report reflects the actual positions of stock to be picked, enabling your personnel to fulfill all orders on the picking plan without revisiting locations.
Picking Plan Sort Order	Specify how to sort your picking plan. You can sort by the PeopleSoft Maintenance Management fields of work order ID, work order task, part number, or shop ID.
New Page	Select this check box to insert a page break at the sort level.
New Batch ID	Select this check box to create a new pick plan ID at the sort level.
Location Summary Sort	Specify how to sort your location summary picking plan. For each level, indicate whether a page break should occur at the sort level by selecting the New Page check box. Options are: ASRS ID: (automated storage and retrieval system ID): Sorts storage locations numerically by the ASRS ID defined on the Material Storage Locations page. Zone/ASRS: Sorts material storage locations by picking zone and then sorts each picking zone by ASRS ID.
Print Delivery Instructions	Select to print delivery instructions on the pick plan. Delivery instructions are defined on the Work Order-Schedules: Inventory page.
Max Pull Locations	Indicate the maximum number of material storage locations to include on a pull picking plan or the maximum number of substitute item material storage locations to print on the picking plan. The default value is 6.

Output Destination

Output Type	Identify the type of output for your picking plan. Options are Email, File, Printer, Web, Default, Any, or Window.
Format	Identify the type of format for your picking plan. Options vary depending on the Output Type chosen.
Destination	Enter the directory into which you want to save the picking plan.

Issuing Items to a Work Order

Use the Issue to Work Orders component to issue items from an Inventory business unit to a PeopleSoft Maintenance Management work order. You can issue stock with or without a previously generated pick plan. This component is also used to return stock to an Inventory business unit.

Handling Unpicked Quantities on a Pick Plan

A work order pick plan inserts the pick batch ID and pick line on the work order demand line in the IN_DEMAND table. This enables the user to access these lines on the Issue to Work Orders component when using an Issue Option that includes a pick list. If you are using work order pick plans, it is important to resolve any remaining unpicked or partially picked quantities using the Issue to Work Orders component. For example, if you have 20 units for a work order line displayed on the pick plan and you issue only 15 units, then the system needs to be told what to do with the remaining 5 units. The unpicked quantity remains on the pick plan until you issue or clear the quantity on the Issue to Work Orders component.

Clear any unpicked quantity to relieve the allocation to the material storage location (if any) and remove the pick batch information from the IN_DEMAND line. To clear unpicked quantity:

In the WO Issue Search page, enter the pick batch ID with the Issue Option of With Pick List. Clear the Default Pick Quantity check box. Select the Set Process to Yes and Set Complete to Yes check boxes. Then press Search.
On the WO Issue Location page, all unpicked lines appear with a pick quantity of zero. When you save the page, the system records that you have picked zero quantity for this line, relieves the allocation, and removes the pick batch ID from the IN_DEMAND line.

Returning Items to Inventory from a Work Order Demand Line

Once repairs or maintenance is completed on an asset, extra parts might need to be returned to the Inventory business unit. Use the Issue to Work Orders component to return stock.

Access the WO Issue Search page and select the Return Parts check box. Enter the Work Order ID information and (optionally) the Item ID. Use the Search button to access the WO Issue Location page.
Use the WO Issue Location page to view the quantity originally issued, enter the Return Qty and the materials storage location where the item was returned to. The following rules apply:
- You cannot return more than the original quantity issued.
- If the material storage location is designated as a single item location, then the item must match.
- It the item is defined as an isolate item on the Define Business Unit Item component, then the material storage location can only contain that item ID.
Save the component. The Quantity Issued field is adjusted to display the original issue quantity less the returned quantity.

Note. The system issues a warning if the material storage location has capacity checking turned on and the returned quantity exceeds capacity.

Process	For work order demand lines on a pick plan, select this check box to process the row and issue the quantity to the work order. If this check box is not selected, then the system clears the Issue Qty to indicate that you are not issuing material and any allocations to the line remain. This check box is only available for parts that are on a pick plan.
Complete	For work order demand lines on a pick plan, select to indicate that the user has finished picking quantity from this material storage location and any remaining hard-allocated quantity can be un-allocated. The corresponding row in DEMAND_PHYS_INV is deleted when this page is saved. If this check box is not selected, then the pick line remains open. This check box is only available for parts that are on a pick plan. For example, assume you have a pick plan that has hard-allocated 10 units of Item ID 10001 to a specific material storage location. The work order technician indicates that she only needs 8 units. Using this page, you change the issue quantity to 8 units, select the Complete check box and save the page. The system: Issues 8 units (QTY_SHIPPED and QTY_PICKED fields of the IN_DEMAND table). On the BU_ITEMS_INV table: If the item is defined as a soft reserve item, then the system increases QTY_AVAILABLE by 2 units. When the pick plan was created, QTY_AVAILABLE was decreased by 10 units. Since only 8 were issued, the system increases QTY_AVAILABLE by the 2 units that was reserved but not issued. If the item is not defined as a soft reserve item, then the system decreases QTY_AVAILABLE by the 8 units issued. If the item is defined as a soft reserve item, then the system decreases QTY_RESERVED by 10 units. If the item is not defined as a soft reserve item, then no adjustment is needed. The system decreases QTY_ONHAND by 8 units. On the PHYSICAL_INV table, the hard allocation of 10 units is removed from the QTY_RESERVED field and the QTY (quantity) field is decreased by 8 units. Deletes the row from the DEMAND_PHYS_INV table. However, if you have the same example except the work order technician picks up 8 units and indicates she will come back for the remaining 2 units later. Using this page, you change the issue quantity to 8 units and do not select the Complete check box, then the system: Issues 8 units (QTY_SHIPPED and QTY_PICKED fields of the IN_DEMAND table). On the BU_ITEMS_INV table: If the item is defined as a soft reserve item, then no adjustment is made to the QTY_AVAILABLE field. If the item is not defined as a soft reserve item, then the system decreases QTY_AVAILABLE by the 8 units issued. If the item is defined as a soft reserve item, then the system decreases QTY_RESERVED by 8 units. If the item is not defined as a soft reserve item, then no adjustment is needed. The system decreases QTY_ONHAND by 8 units. On the PHYSICAL_INV table, the hard allocation of 8 units is removed from the QTY_RESERVED field and the QTY (quantity) field is decreased by 8 units. Does not delete the row from the DEMAND_PHYS_INV table. When the work order technician picks up the additional 2 units, the issue quantity will be 2 units and the Complete check box should be selected.

The valid combinations of the check boxes of Pick Line Complete, Process, and Complete are:

Pick Line Complete	Process	Complete	Action
Selected	Selected	Selected	Quantity in Issue Qty field is issued to the work order. Allocations for unpicked quantity are relieved. Pick ID and pick line are removed from the work order line in the IN_DEMAND table.
Cleared	Selected	Selected	Use this option if there are multiple locations that the pick plan suggested (that is multiple rows in the Quantity/Location Information group box) and you are processing only part of those locations. Quantity in Issue Qty field is issued to the work order. Allocations for unpicked quantity are relieved. Pick ID and pick line for the work order line stay in the IN_DEMAND table.
Cleared	Selected	Cleared	Use this combination to hold the allocation and issue stock multiple times for this work order demand line. Quantity in Issue Qty field is issued to the work order. Allocations for unpicked quantity are kept. Pick ID and pick line for the work order line stay in the IN_DEMAND table.
Cleared	Cleared	Cleared	No updates occur.
