Configuration Setup

The Shop Floor Data Collection System (SFDC) communicates interactively with the Customer Order Processing System (COPS), and Statistical Process Control/Statistical Quality Control (SPC/SQC). The Manufacturing Data System (MDS) makes the communication between these systems possible.

SFDC provides real-time information used by SPC/SQC and MESWeb to create quality control reports. The data configuration for SFDC PC is handled within the Manufacturing Data System (MDS), which is a complete factory automation system. The SFDC System uses barcode scanning, both manual and automated, to monitor and control a single product line or an entire plant. SFDC Configuration collects data, provides analysis, maintains unit histories, and controls product movement on the manufacturing floor.

The system provides Access Control between the modules of the application, including the functionalities of each page. The current version has an SFDC Configuration page which provides access to all pages and their portlets.

NOTE: A user only has access to the modules assigned to his or her profile.

Sampling Plan

The Sampling Plan module provides the ability to define new sampling plans, modify existing sampling plans used for SFDC sampling rate management, and expand current plans.

The application provides two levels of definition:

• Master Data: The default sampling conditions and sampling rates.
• Instance Data: Specific sampling conditions for particular data instances.

1. Users may access the Sampling Plan main page by navigating to Shop Floor Control > SFDC Configuration > Sampling Plan.

Appendix A

Data Fields and Sample Types used for Sampling Plan Definition:

This appendix describes the data fields used for Sampling Plan Definitions that are relevant to creating sample plans.

Sample Type: Specifies the sampling type being created. Click the drop-down box to display the list of sample types that can be created. NOTE: The Sample Types are described in detail bellow.

Sample Name: Required. Specifies a unique name for a master sampling plan.

Sample Types and Features:

AT (Attribute): The sample count is accumulated based on each input attribute matching the value specified. The AT sample plan form includes an Attribute Name field for specifying the attribute name to use when sampling. The Attribute Data field is also included for entering further information about the attribute used for the sampling plan.

CP (Component): The sample count is accumulated based on each input component matching the specified component ID and reference designator. The Sampling Plan Definition window updates to include the Reference Designator and Component ID fields.

CO (Customer Order): The sample count is accumulated based on each input customer order number defined in the plan instance. This plan only applies to projects using COPS.

• Auto Create: If the Auto Create box is checked, the sample engine creates a sample plan for each customer order considered for sampling. Sample plans accumulate separately for each customer order.

• Disable Min Qty: Only customer orders with a units-in-order quantity larger than this value are sampled. For example, setting the value to 99 will sampls customer orders with a unit-in-order quantity of 100 or more. Use this setting to prevent the sampling load from becoming too heavy when a large number of customer orders contain a small quantity of units.

• Min. of Samples: This field specifies the minimum number of samples that must occur by a specified point in the order.

• % of Order: This field is only available for Shop Order or Customer Order sample types. The value specifies the point in the order where at least the minimum number of samples must occur. For example, suppose the number of units in an order is 100 with a Sample Rate of 10%. If Min. of Samples is set to 5 and % of Order is set to 25, then 5 units (1/2 of all units to be sampled) are sampled from the first 25%. This results in an accelerated sample rate of 20% for the first of the order. After the minimum number of samples has occurred, the sample plan drops back to a computed rate which samples the remaining units from the remaining units in the order to achieve the required 10% sample rate.

FIO (Factory Installed Option): The sample count is accumulated based on the part number of an FIO part. Sampling can be accumulated by the FIO part number or the part number of the base part. The part number in the master sample plan record is the part number of the FIO. Each master sample plan can target a single FIO part number.

• Expand: If the Expand box is checked, the sample plan accumulates sample counts by the base part number where the FIO is installed. If the Expand box is left unchecked, the samples accumulate by FIO part number.

• Auto Create: If the Expand box is checked, Auto Create is enabled. If the Auto Create option is checked, the Sample Engine enables Part Numbers to be entered for base parts containing the FIO part as sampled. If the Auto Create option is unchecked, the sample plan only applies to the specified base part numbers.

PFM (Part Family Mask): This option creates plans for all parts of a given part family.

PM (Part Mask): The sample count is based on the Expand option setting. Part Mask sampling is similar to Serial Mask sampling. See Serial Mask for more information. See UNIX Regular Expressions for information on correct formatting for part masks.

• Expand: If the Expand box is checked, the sample plan accumulates based on the part numbers specified in the plan instances matched with the part mask. If the Expand box is unchecked, the sample count is accumulated based on the input part mask.

PN (Part Number): The sample count is accumulated based on the base part number of the unit being sampled. If a sample plan exists for the target part number, the unit is sampled according to the sample plan.

• Auto Create: If the Auto Create box is checked, a sample plan is created automatically if one does not already exist. If the Auto Create is unchecked and no sample plan exists, no sampling is performed.

PRO (Procedure): The sample count is based on the results of a custom algorithm applied to each unit being considered. If the unit passes consideration, it is sampled. Accumulation of sample counts is based on the Expand option setting.

• Expand: if the Expand box is checked, the default procedure name is recorded in the master sample plan. A sample plan exists for each part number sampled. If the Expand box is unchecked, the procedure name is established in the master sample plan. A single sample plan exists and accumulation is based on the procedure running.

• Auto Create: if the Expand box is checked, Auto Create is enabled. If the Auto Create box is checked, the Sample Engine creates default sample plans when the sample plan is first applied to the target part number. If the Auto Create option is unchecked, only the specified part numbers are sampled.

SM (Serial Mask): The sample count is accumulated based on the Expand option setting. The serial mask type allows configuration of a sampling plan triggered by the serial number of the unit being considered for sampling. If the serial number of the unit matches the serial mask provided in configuration, the unit is sampled. See UNIX Regular Expressions for information on correct formatting of serial masks.

• Expand: If the Expand box is checked, the sample plan accumulates sample counts based on the part number of the base being sampled if the serial number matches the mask. If the Expand box is unchecked, a single sample plan accumulates sample counts based on the specified sample plan.
• Auto Create: If the Expand box is checked, Auto Create is enabled. If the Auto Create box is checked, the Sample Engine creates sample plans automatically for each part number as sampled. If the Auto Create box is unchecked, only the part numbers entered into the sample plan with serial numbers matching the serial mask are sampled.

SO (Shop Order): The sample count is accumulated based on each input shop order number defined in the plan instance. Shop Order sampling is similar to Customer Order sampling. The only difference is that the Sample Engine looks at the Shop Order Number instead of the COPS Order Number.

WS (Workstation): The sample count accumulates based on target units at a workstation where the Sample Engine is executed. Suppose a line exists with three pack workstations receiving units from final QA. The work stations are PCK1, PCK2, and PCK3. All three workstations execute the following custom command line at the end of the packing process: !!1SAMPLE.PACK.OBA. The Expand and Auto Create option descriptions and the Examples below show what happens with the sample counts.

• Expand: if the Expand box is checked, the sample plan is based on the base part number passing the workstation. When expanding the sample plan, the sample plans track part numbers. If the Expand box is unchecked, the sample plan applies to specified workstations. For instance, sample plans could be created for PCK1, PCK2, and PCK3. Each workstation has its own sample plan and accumulates counts independent of the other workstations. When the plan is not expanded, the sample plans track workstations.

• Auto Create: If the Expand box is checked, Auto Create is enabled. If the Auto Create box is checked, the Sample Engine automatically creates sample plans based on the master sample plan.

Location: Required. Specifies the default Move To location for a unit if it is to be sampled. Enter a valid location name, or click the To Location button to display the Location Selection window.

Data ID: Optional. If a !!2 command is used, the serial number scanned could contain a prefix data identifier. This field specifies the data ID dropped from the serial number if necessary.

Attribute Name and Attribute Data: Required for Attribute sample type only. Specifies the attribute name and data to use in sampling.

Ref Designator and Component ID: Required for Component sample type only. Specifies the component to use in sampling.

Procedure: Required for Procedure sample type only. Specifies the procedure to use in sampling.

Part Number: When the sample type is FIO and the Expand box is checked. Requires the FIO part number. Enter a valid FIO part number, or click the Part Number button to display the Part Table window.

Part Mask: When the sample type is Part Mask and the Expand box is checked. Requires a Part Mask using UNIX Regular Expressions.

Serial Mask: When the sample type is Serial Mask and the Expand box is checked. Requires a Serial Mask using UNIX Regular Expressions.

Sampling Rate %: Required. Specifies the default sampling rate. It is the number of units out of one hundred to be sampled.

Range %: Optional. Specifies the deviation used for the sampling rate. It is the number of units out of one hundred which will randomly deviate from the specified sample rate. See Understanding How Range Works for more detailed information.

Min. of Samples: Optional. For Shop Order or Customer Order types only. Specifies the minimum number of samples that must occur by a set point in the order process.

% of Order: Optional. For Shop Order or Customer Order types only. Specifies the point in the order where at least the minimum number of samples must occur.

Disable Min. Qty.: Optional for Shop Order or Customer Order types using the Auto-populate option only. Specifies a number to be sampled smaller than the unit-in-order quantity. This setting is used to prevent too many samples when a large number of orders contain a small quantity of units. See Sample Types for more information on this field.
