This new functionality is available with KB 2999768 and will be included in Microsoft Dynamics AX2012 R3 CU8. To find the HF you can use LCS Issue Search.

Whats new?

The generation of put away work was in the AX2012 R3 release only enabled for reporting as finished a production or batch order from the mobile device. In CU8 put away work is now generated when reporting as finished a warehouse enabled item from the AX Client.

In this blog I am going to walk through two scenarios showing how put away work is now created when reporting as finished from the Dynamics AX client. In this example I am going to use item L0101 from the USMF demo data company



Simple scenario : Shannon has completed the assembly of ten speakers in her work cell. She reports the speakers as finished in the route card journal and put away work is generated

A production order for twenty pieces of mini-speakers exists and is in status Started



Shannon completes the assembly of the twenty Mini-speakers and reports the quantity as finished in the route card journal



Shannon provides the journal line with a license plate number



When Shannon posts the journal, put away work is generated





Advanced scenario : Shannon is working on a production order assembling ten Mini-speakers. Shannon has completed the assembly of eight speakers and reports them as finished in the job registration terminal form and put away work is generated. Shannon completes the assembly of the remaining two speakers but does not have time to report them in the terminal, because she has to rush home. Lars promises Shannon that he will take care of reporting the remaining quantity as finished

A production order for ten pieces of mini-speakers exists and is in status Started



Shannon has started the assembly of 10 mini-speakers



Shannon is now going to report eight pieces as finished from the Job registration form in the manufacturing execution system. In the feedback form Shannon provides a license plate number. This number identifies the goods that Shannon is reporting to the output location of her work cell. The license plate number will be used by the warehouse worker to identify the goods that he is going to put away from the output location to the finished goods locations



Note: The license plate field is enabled in the feedback form under the following conditions

• The item is enabled for the new warehouse processes
• The shop floor operator is reporting on the last operation in the production route

After Shannon has confirmed the feedback of eight pieces of mini-speakers, put away work is generated



As it can be seen this work suggests to put away the eight Mini-speakers from the production output location to the finished goods location.

In order to report the remaining two Mini-speakers, Lars opens the production order form and selects the report as finished function. Here he enters the remaining two pieces and the license plate. In this case he uses the same license plate as Shannon did when she reported the first eight speaker



After confirming the report as finished put away work has been generated for the remaining two speakers reported by Lars



The different options for reporting as finished is outlined in the table below. All these options now supports generation of put away work

Summary

In CU8 it is now possible to have put away work generated when reporting quantity on a production or batch order in the Dynamics AX client. This can for example be useful for customers who wants to enable the new warehouse processes offered in the R3 release, but wants to maintain using the shop floor terminal for manufacturing execution or enable the shop floor supervisor to make corrections.
