Repairing Lot-Controlled Items with Repair Work Orders

Users can create a Repair Work Order for lot-controlled items. The capability provides users with better visibility in tracking and managing multiple quantities of lot-based inventory. It also helps users to repair any number of inventory items based on lot-controlled transactions. Users can select the quantity and the unit of measurement which is auto-populated in the Work Order Task.

Prerequisite

Not all users and roles have access to this feature. It is mandatory for an Enterprise Admin role user to initiate the AutoSave Tasks on State policy at the enterprise level from the Search Policies under the Menus/Favs menu. By applying this policy, during the Start Planning state, a task is system-generated for users to repair the selected lot-controlled items.


Complete the following steps to create a repair work order for lot-controlled items:

  1. L og in to the ONE system.

  2. Click Menus/Favs > Work Order Management > New Work Order.
    In the NEO UI, users can click on the Menus/Favs icon on the left sidebar and type in the name of the screen in the menu search bar. For more information, see "Using the Menu Search Bar."
    The New Work Order screen displays.
