Use SOP Number for MO Number

Use SOP Number for MO Number

HelpID: 497022128

When creating Manufacturing Orders from Sales Transaction Entry, this Tweak will cause the MO Number to be generated using the SOP Number plus the ordinal line number of the Sales Line Item. For example, if an MO is created for the third line of a Back Order, the MO Number would be BKORD2237-0003.

Setup

Navigation: Tools >> Setup >> Manufacturing >> MFG PowerPack Setup

Mark the box next to “TWK: Use SOP Number For MO Number*”.

This Tweak requires additional setup. Double-click on “TWK: Use SOP Number For MO Number*” to open the Setup window.

Enter a separator. This character will be inserted between the SOP Number and the SOP Ordinal Line Number, such as ORDST2237-0003. If you are also using MO Split the two must have different separators. Click SAVE.

Click DONE on the MFG PowerPack Setup window. This Tweak will be active immediately for the current user. Other users will need to close GP, then log-in again to activate it.

Using SOP Number-MO Number

This Tweak causes Manufacturing to generate the “Next MO Number” using the SOP Number, the separator entered in setup, and the ordinal line number. Ordinal Line Number is the “counted” line, not the SOP Line Number. So the Ordinal Line Number for the first line is 1 not 16384.

As shown above, the MO created for the 9^th line of Backorder BKO1012 is BKO1012#0009.
