You should visit this Setup screen after each upgrade or reinstallation of this Extended Solution. Operation As W/O Transaction Entry is exited upon completion of W/O Transaction Entry you will see the prompt ‘Do You Want To Create Miscellaneous Labor Transactions?’ (Figure 2). If you answer ‘No,’ no further action will be taken. If you answer ‘Yes,’ and the program detects that the data entry batch contains at least one type 1 Release Transaction, the following processing will occur: 1) The program will check to see if a Miscellaneous Labor Transaction Entry(ies) already

exists for the W/O being released. If one does exist, no further action will be taken. 2) If a Miscellaneous Labor Transaction Entry does not currently exist for the W/O in the

data entry batch, one or more Miscellaneous Labor Transaction Entries will be created. 3) A transaction will be created for each step. 4) The Work Center and Operations Code for each Transaction line will be the values which

would normally default if the entry were created manually for the W/O step number. 5) The Labor Description field will be blank. 6) The Date will default as if the entry were created manually. 7) The Cost will be made equal to the Standard Cost from the Operations Code Maintenance

screen, multiplied by the Hours/Operation value from the W/O Operation Maintenance screen then multiplied by the Work Order Quantity Ordered.

Once created, the entries may be edited normally and the Transaction Journal printed and updated normally. You will receive a prompt to create the entries each and every time you exit Transaction Entry when at least one entry is a Release Transaction. If any Miscellaneous Labor Transactions are created they will use the next standard W/O Transaction Number. The program will check to see if a Miscellaneous Labor Transaction is already on file for the Work Order/Step Number before it attempts to create one. If one is on file in the data entry batch, the program will not create another one. If you delete a W/O Release transaction, any Miscellaneous Labor Transactions associated with it will be deleted. If you delete the entire Miscellaneous Labor transaction, the W/O Release Transaction lines that created it will be ‘unmarked’ and the W/O Release will become available to create another Miscellaneous Labor transaction.

The Cost used is arrived at by multiplying the Standard Cost by the Hours/Operation value stored in W/O Operation Maintenance. This amount is then multiplied by the Work Order Quantity Ordered. To be valid, you must set up these Operation Codes as ‘Hours/Operation’ (i.e., not ‘Lot’ or ‘Operations/Hour’).

If you delete a single line on the Miscellaneous Labor Transaction, the W/O Release Transaction that created it will not be ‘unmarked,’ and you will not create another Miscellaneous Labor Transaction. You must delete the entire Miscellaneous Transaction in order for the W/O Release Transaction to become available.
