*Batch serial numbers can be manually created or generated from an algorithm. If using an algorithm to create a batch serial number, the algorithm type must be "general".

Batch Process

Batch Process is a portlet in 42Q that provides a web page interface to perform Batch Processing operations. The functions that are available in the portlet are: Create Batch, Split Batch, Merge Batch, Remove Unit, Add Component, and Add Sub-Attribute. The portlet's screens make it easier to identify the individual unit serial numbers that are in batches, and eliminate the need for running the batch commands at a data collector or through an emulator.

  • Batch process allows for a batch serial number (module select type 7) to be created and unit serial numbers to be added to the batch.
  • Unit serial numbers are tracked components of the batch serial number.
  • The only tracked components of a batch serial number are the unit serial numbers. SFDC processing is performed using the batch serial number, and all activities are completed against the batch serial number.
  • Unit serial number processing cannot be "mixed" with batch processing. In order to perform a unique operation to an individual unit, the batch must be split into a batch of one and the individual unit added to the batch. Processing then occurs on the batch serial number.
  • Batch serial numbers can be split into smaller batches, or merged to combine small batches of units into a larger batch.
  • Upon completion of a batch, all the individual units are removed from the batch and moved to completed status. The batch serial number is marked as "Batch_OLDID", status 63, and is no longer used again.
  • Reporting capabilities have been created for MESWeb to allow all activities performed at the batch level to be reflected in the unit history.
  • By default, the maximum batch size is 150 units.
  • The batch serial number and unit serial numbers are the same part number.
  • Shop orders are created for the unit serial numbers, not batch serial numbers.
  • Unit serial numbers are created at the time the shop order is released.
  • Multiple batch serial numbers can be created for a single shop order, but only unit serial numbers from a single shop order can be associated to a batch serial number. Mixing between shop orders, even for the same part number, is not allowed.
  • Batch serial numbers can be manually created or generated from an algorithm. If using an algorithm to create a batch serial number, the algorithm type must be "general".
  • Split Batch serial numbers are expected to be in the format (parent_sn-nn) where parent_sn is the Source (parent) batch serial number and nn represents an incrementing number (01, 02, 03…).

1. To access the Batch Process Page, navigate to Production

>

Batch Process.

Figure 1: Batch Process Main

<img _fck_mw_filename="SOP-5-I-MES0040-C Batch Main Process.jpg" _fck_mw_origimgheight="393" _fck_mw_origimgwidth="699" alt="RTENOTITLE" src="/mes_wiki/images/f/f3/SOP-5-I-MES0040-C_Batch_Main_Process.jpg" style="vertical-align:middle;" title="RTENOTITLE" />

A drop down list is displayed with available Unit ID

s.

2. Select a Unit ID.

Figure 2: Select a Unit ID

<img _fck_mw_filename="02 Batch Process Select Unit ID.jpg" _fck_mw_origimgheight="543" _fck_mw_origimgwidth="814" alt="02 Batch Process Select Unit ID.jpg" src="/mes_wiki/images/f/fa/02_Batch_Process_Select_Unit_ID.jpg" style="vertical-align:middle;" title="02 Batch Process Select Unit ID.jpg" width="700" />

The main Batch Process screen is displayed.

Create Batch

1. To create a new batch serial number and associate unit serial numbers to the batch serial number, select Create Batch on the menu bar.

The Create Batch screen is displayed.

Figure 3: Download Shop Orders

<img _fck_mw_filename="03 Batch Process All Batch.jpg" _fck_mw_origimgheight="538" _fck_mw_origimgwidth="818" alt="03 Batch Process All Batch.jpg" src="/mes_wiki/images/b/bb/03_Batch_Process_All_Batch.jpg" style="vertical-align:middle;" title="03 Batch Process All Batch.jpg" width="700" />

2. Select the button to the right of the Shop Order drop down to download all available Shop Orders for that location.

3. All available Shop Orders for that location will appear in the Shop Floor drop down box.

4. Select the appropriate shop order.

Figure 4: Select Shop Order

<img _fck_mw_filename="04 Batch Process Select SO.jpg" _fck_mw_origimgheight="540" _fck_mw_origimgwidth="811" alt="04 Batch Process Select SO.jpg" src="/mes_wiki/images/5/5e/04_Batch_Process_Select_SO.jpg" style="vertical-align:middle;" title="04 Batch Process Select SO.jpg" width="700" />
NOTE: Only released shop orders with unit serial numbers not associated to a batch will be available for use. Shop orders that do not have available units are not displayed.

Once a shop order has been selected, the available unit serial numbers are displayed in the box under the shop order. A label under the left box displays the number of unit serial numbers available in the Shop Order. This value only updates after a batch serial number has been created and units are associated to the batch serial number.

On the top right side of the screen are the Batch Serial Number fields. A batch serial number can be created manually, or through the use of an algorithm. There is a check box to use an algorithm and a box to supply the algorithm number. If the algorithm check box is checked, the batch serial number field becomes inactive.

5. Manually enter a batch serial number, or check the algorithm check box and enter a valid algorithm number. The large box on the right displays the unit serial numbers to be added to the batch serial number.

Figure 5: Create Target BSN

<img _fck_mw_filename="SOP-5-I-MES0040-C Batch Process Create Target BSN.jpg" _fck_mw_origimgheight="107" _fck_mw_origimgwidth="704" alt="RTENOTITLE" src="/mes_wiki/images/5/5a/SOP-5-I-MES0040-C_Batch_Process_Create_Target_BSN.jpg" style="vertical-align:middle;" title="RTENOTITLE" />
NOTE: If manually creating batch serial numbers, SERIAL INPUT line(s) must exist in the SFDC Setup Data Editor to define serial masking and part number assignment.

At the bottom of the screen are left and right arrow buttons. The double arrow buttons move all unit serial numbers from left to right, or right to left, depending on the button selection. Individual or multiple unit serial numbers can be selected and moved using the single arrow buttons.

Figure 6: Move Serial Numbers

<img _fck_mw_filename="06 Batch Process Move SN.jpg" _fck_mw_origimgheight="540" _fck_mw_origimgwidth="815" alt="06 Batch Process Move SN.jpg" src="/mes_wiki/images/5/5b/06_Batch_Process_Move_SN.jpg" style="vertical-align:middle;" title="06 Batch Process Move SN.jpg" width="700" />

Once a batch has been defined in the GUI, selecting the Commit button will create the batch serial number and add the defined unit serial numbers to the batch serial number in SFDC. As long as the Commit button has not been selected, the batch has not been created and any changes can be made.

Split Batch

To split a batch serial number and associate unit serial numbers from the parent batch serial number to a new split batch serial number, select the Split Batch tab. The Split Batch screen is displayed.

Figure 8: Split Batch

<img _fck_mw_filename="08 Batch Process Split Batch.jpg" _fck_mw_origimgheight="528" _fck_mw_origimgwidth="810" alt="08 Batch Process Split Batch.jpg" src="/mes_wiki/images/5/5e/08_Batch_Process_Split_Batch.jpg" style="vertical-align:middle;" title="08 Batch Process Split Batch.jpg" width="700" />

NOTE: A batch serial number can be split into smaller batches, but at least 1 unit serial number must remain in the original batch. A split batch serial number cannot be created for a quantity equal to or greater than the parent batch serial number quantity.

In the top left of the screen is a field to select the Source (parent) Batch Serial Number.

1. Click in the Source Batch Serial Number field and enter the first character(s) of a batch serial number. A "fuzzy search" displays all matching batch serial numbers for the entered characters.

2. Select a parent batch serial number to split into a smaller batch quantity.

NOTE: Only batch serial numbers at the location(s) associated to the workstation currently logged into are displayed.

After selecting a batch serial number, the unit serial numbers attached to the batch serial number are displayed in the panel on the left. A label is displayed under the box, defining the quantity of units in the batch serial number.

Figure 9: Select Source BSN

<img _fck_mw_filename="09 Batch Process Select Source BSN.jpg" _fck_mw_origimgheight="542" _fck_mw_origimgwidth="815" alt="09 Batch Process Select Source BSN.jpg" src="/mes_wiki/images/6/65/09_Batch_Process_Select_Source_BSN.jpg" style="vertical-align:middle;" title="09 Batch Process Select Source BSN.jpg" width="700" />

On the top right side of the screen are the Target Batch Serial Number fields. A batch serial number can be created manually, or through the use of an algorithm. There is a check box to use an algorithm and a box to supply the algorithm number. If the algorithm check box is checked, the batch serial number field becomes inactive.

3. Manually enter a batch serial number, or check the algorithm check box and enter a valid algorithm number.

Figure 10: Create Target BSN

<img _fck_mw_filename="SOP-5-I-MES0040-C Create Target BSN.jpg" _fck_mw_origimgheight="92" _fck_mw_origimgwidth="699" alt="RTENOTITLE" src="/mes_wiki/images/6/6e/SOP-5-I-MES0040-C_Create_Target_BSN.jpg" style="vertical-align:middle;" title="RTENOTITLE" />
NOTE: The expectation for split batch serial numbers is to have the format (parent_sn-nn). The parent batch serial number makes up the first part of the split batch serial number, followed by a "-" (hyphen) and then ascending number (01, 02, 03, …) for each split. If using an algorithm to create split batch serial numbers, the algorithm must be of type general and must be configured correctly to use the parent batch as a value, along with a constant (-) and incrementing number.

The large box on the right displays the unit serial numbers to be added to the split batch serial number(s).

NOTE: If manually creating split batch serial numbers, SERIAL INPUT line(s) must exist in the SFDC Setup Data Editor to define serial masking and part number assignment.

At the bottom of the screen are left and right arrow buttons. The double arrow buttons move all unit serial numbers from left to right, or right to left, depending on the button selection. Individual or multiple unit serial numbers can be selected and moved using the single arrow buttons.

4. Select the serial numbers to be committed by placing a check in the box to the left of the name list in the right panel.

5. Select Commit to split the batch.

6. To cancel splitting a batch, select Cancel.

7. History will display the SFDC Batch Serial Number unit history.
