Oracle Work in Process – Serial Genealogy

OVERVIEW The intention of this document is to provide an insight and high-level overview into Serial Genealogy feature provided in Oracle Applications. It also covers the much needed setup points. Serial Genealogy is a feature first delivered with 11.5.2 version of the Oracle Applications. It tracks the transaction and multi-level composition history of any serial controlled item from receipt, through work in process and inventory to the customer sale. The composition genealogy is captured through the material transactions screen in Oracle Work in Process. The graphical genealogy display provides an easy way for users to trace serialized item activities. Users may trace from an assembly down through all of its components or may trace from the component to the finished good. Serial Genealogy provides a tracking method to enable the tracking of the serialized items through the life cycle of a product. This genealogy tracing enables the users to expedite problem isolation and improve response to customer request. It also helps to track and regulate supplier performance and quality.

SETUP Following are the prerequisites to record the issue of serialized components to serial controlled assemblies: PREREQUISITES 1 Any assembly or sub-assembly which is to be included in the

genealogy must be set up as: Serial Control - Predefined (Item Master/ Organization Item Setup)

Navigation: Responsibility: Inventory Items/Master Items OR Items/Organization Items

2 The serial numbers for the assembly (referred to in 1) must be generated before creating the WIP jobs to build the assemblies.

Navigation: Responsibility: Inventory On-hand, Availability/Generate Serial Numbers OR Reports/ Items/Serial Generation

Page 5: Serial Geneology

Oracle Work in Process – Serial Genealogy Page 3

3 Serialized components must be set up as: Serial Control - At Receipt or Predefined (Item Master/ Organization Item Setup).

4 Serialized components must have been received into inventory

before they can be issued to the assembly job

TEST CASE: DEFINE ITEMS Navigation: Responsibility: Inventory Items/ Master Items

‘Apply’ and ‘Done’

NOTE: Top level of assemblies and subassemblies need to have Serial Control set to ‘Predefined’. Referring to the BOM structure below, for FALH001 and HD00001, Serial Generation should be set to ‘Predefined’. We can use ‘Subassembly’ template while creating HD00001. Serial generation for the subassembly HD00001 is also set to ‘Predefined’ with Starting Prefix as ‘RX’ and Starting Number is 100.

Page 7: Serial Geneology

Oracle Work in Process – Serial Genealogy Page 5

In this demo, we have used the attribute control of serial number at Master level. You can refer to page 5-36 of Oracle Inventory User’s Guide For differences between the predefined and other settings. Assign the item to Inventory Organization, M1 – Seattle Manufacturing

Similarly create the serialized components by copying it from a Purchased item and assign it to Inventory Organization M1 – Seattle Manufacturing. Please note the components (KN00001, AKLH001, BC00001, H000001 and D000001) should be Serial Controlled, either At Receipt or Predefined. BOM & ROUTING DETAILS BOM Details:

Note the Receipt number (5125). CREATE DISCRETE JOB Create a Discrete job for subassembly HD00001. Qty=2; Release it. Navigation: Responsibility: Work in Process Discrete/ Discrete Jobs Refer to page 3 – 70 in Oracle Work in Process User’s Guide for defining discrete jobs manually.

Page 13: Serial Geneology

Oracle Work in Process – Serial Genealogy Page 11

In order to issue components to the job, the job must be in either released or complete status. WIP MOVE TRANSACTIONS

If the WIP Transaction Processing profiles are set to Background, to issue serialized components to the assembly serial number, it is necessary to perform WIP Material Transaction - Specific Component checked.

If the WIP Transaction Processing profiles are set to On-line, the system prompts the user to enter the serial number of the ‘Operation Pull’ and ‘Assembly Pull’ components issued to the assembly when performing WIP Move and Completion Transactions respectively.

Page 14: Serial Geneology

Oracle Work in Process – Serial Genealogy Page 12

In this test case, the following WIP and INV Transaction Processing (TP) profile options are set to 'Online Processing' to prompt the users to enter the serial number of the components issued and to update the Inventory on-line. TP:WIP Move Transaction TP:WIP Operation Backflush Setup TP:WIP Completion Transaction Form TP:WIP Completion Material Processing TP:INV Transaction Processing Mode Navigation: Responsibility: Work in Process Move Transactions/ Move Transactions Move the entire quantity (2 No.s) from 10Que to 20Que

Click ‘Save’, it prompts you to enter the serial number of the Operation pull component (H000001) being issued to the job 47533.
