Scenario 3

Finally, assume work orders ABC and DEF are both created from process P1 to make item I1, and that production is reported from both jobs for operation 10 with a reason code of R1. Also assume that the following dynamic routing parameter settings:

• Redo job originating dynamic routing at end of dynamic process is set to Yes

• Combine dynamic routing from the same operations of different work orders is set to Yes

• Copy remaining jobs to end of WO created for dynamic routing is set to Yes

• Use label in dynamic routing work order or operation IDs is set to No

The result is as follows, provided no jobs of work order 1 are yet started:

Note that if work order DEF had been instantiated from process P2 instead of process P1, even if it were to make the same item, its rework could not be combined with that from work order ABC. This is because that while it also contains operations 10, 20, 30, and 40 with the same routing codes, the operations in the two processes are inherently different, regardless of their operation names. Therefore, the jobs instantiated from those operations are assumed to be different. Because this scenario involves copying the remaining jobs to the end to the dynamic routing work order, the jobs copied from work order ABC are different than those copied from work order DEF. Therefore, the requirement that all the jobs in the dynamic routing work order be the same is not met.
