I'm trying to figure out some issues with our work order process. Running JD Edwards 9.1 over an Oracle DB. The specific issue that's arising is as follows:
- Sales order is entered with an item designated as line type "W"
- Work Order is generated and often processed (parts list attached and hard commit of components occurs)
- Sales order line in question is cancelled, thus canceling associated work order (moving to status 91)
- R3190 Runs with processing option set at 95, so commitments are never relieved for cancelled work orders.
What I am currently considering is changing the processing option on the scheduled version of R3190 to 91. this solves the immediate commitment issue, but I'm not sure if there may be other problems created that I'm not seeing.
My question is, first, are there any other consequences of my proposed change? Is this common practice? My next question is, should canceled work orders live at that status forever and ever amen? Or should they be picked up and bumped along to a closed status in the manufacturing accounting/work order close process?
I do realize that we can manually delete the parts list, thus relieving commitments, but this is something that happens with some frequency in a fast paced environment, so I don't want to suggest that as the solution if there is a reasonable way to automate this.
any input would be greatly appreciated. I know you guys are big on detail inclusion in these posts, I'm not a frequent poster, but I did my best so forgive me if I left any critical details out. Happy to provide additional information.
