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.

Work Instruction


This Work Instruction is Sanmina's corporate standard.
This document is under revision control. The latest revision is located on SanminaNet.
Once printed it is an uncontrolled copy. All alterations to this work instruction require approval.
Contact the IT Global Education and Training Department to submit suggested alterations and or updates.

This edition applies to MES15 Portal 1.0 and all subsequent releases and modifications until otherwise indicated in new revisions.

SFDC 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 portlets of each page. The current version has an SFDC Configuration page which provides access to all pages and their portlets (view, add, edit, delete, print and generate output file).

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

Traveler Maintenance

A traveler is a source of information for installing each part for a unit. It provides,

  • A view of each unit structure, and control over parts released to the manufacturing floor.
  • A list for checking-off parts during the assembly of individual units.
  • Improves control of manufacturing workflow and allows for better planning of product assembly.

The Traveler Maintenance application builds and maintains the traveler configurations for orderable part numbers. A traveler configuration is a defined list of parts required to build an orderable unit or an Internally Configured Part (ICP).

Each line item on a traveler is an entry from the General Parts and Bases list. Part numbers can be added or deleted from a traveler configuration depending on the manufacturing procedure required for unit assembly. Any changes to a traveler configuration are pending until approved by engineering personnel and released to manufacturing.

All traveler configurations contain the following information:

  • Part Number
  • Part Description
  • Traveler Configuration Status

To access Traveler Maintenance click on navigate to Shop Floor Control > SFDC Configuration > Traveler.

Figure 1: MES Traveler Maintenance

Traveler Main Page

Figure 2: Traveler Main Page

The main page, called Traveler Maintenance, displays all defined travelers. The user is able to execute the following actions:

Filter results, Edit, Copy, Delete, Print/Export, Release, Exploded View, Indented View, Single Level View and Where Used, Add Traveler, Comparison File and Sign Off portlets.

Traveler Filter

The Filter allows the user to filter results by Traveler Status, Part Number or Part Type.

1. Enter desired criteria into the filter fields and select Filter. The filter results are displayed.

Figure 3: Traveler Filter

2. Click Clear to clear the filter fields.

Add Traveler Configuration

1. To add a traveler, select Add from the Traveler Maintenance page. The Add Traveler Config page is displayed.

Figure 4: Traveler Configuration

2. Enter a part number into the Part Number field. (NOTE: Upon entering three characters into the Part Number field, a drop-down box will appear that auto-generates a list of part numbers consistent with what the user has already entered.)

3. Select Save to finish, or Cancel to abort.


Add Part

Once a traveler configuration has been created, the user may now add parts to the list:

1. Click on Add Part button to insert parts to the list.

Figure 5: Add Parts to Traveler Configuration

2. Enter the Part Number using the available filter (part type). Click on Ok to confirm. The part number is now listed under the Traveler Form.


Load/Remove from File

This portlet enables the user to specify a CSV file from which to load or remove parts.
Only valid part numbers can be loaded. If any part numbers are found to be invalid, an error messaged is displayed.

The Load/Remove file format is as follows:

Part Number, Quantity,AddOrDelete

part_number1,3,A

part_number2,1,A

1. To load or remove part numbers from a file, click Load/Remove from File.

Figure 6: Load/Remove from File

2. Select Search under Load/Remove From File. Then navigate to the desired CSV file and click Ok. The part numbers from the file are now added or deleted (depending on the file data) to the list.


Insert Text Line Item

This portlet enables the user to manually add a Text Line Item.

1. To add a Text Line Item, select Insert Line Item in the Traveler Form. A new Text-Line-Item line is created in the Traveler Form List.

Figure 7: Insert Line Item

2. Enter Print Sequence and Quantity by double-clicking the desired field. Enter the values, and then select Update.

3. Enter a comment describing the line item into the Text field.

.

4. Click Update to save the Traveler Configuration, or click Cancel to close the Traveler Details screen and return to the Traveler Config List.


Edit Traveler Configuration

This portlet enables the user to edit an existing traveler configuration.

1. To edit, select the desired Traveler Configuration and click Edit. The Traveler Form is displayed for the selected part number.

Figure 8: Editing Traveler – Traveler Form

2. Reference section 1.1.3 Add a Traveler Configuration, as the steps and information are the same.


Copy Traveler

This feature allows the user to copy an existing traveler configuration.

1. To copy an existing Traveler Configuration, select the desired configuration and click Copy. The Copy Traveler Config window is displayed.

Figure 9: Traveler Copy with Traveler Form

2. Enter the desired Part Number.

3. Click Save to complete the action (or Cancel to abort). The Traveler Form for the new part number is displayed. The Traveler Configuration Form has been copied for use with the new part number.

4. Reference section 1.1.3 Add a Traveler Configuration as the steps and information are the same.

5. Click Save to finish, or click Cancel to abort and return to the Traveler Maintenance list.


Delete Traveler Configuration

This portlet enables the user to delete an existing traveler configuration. Traveler configurations are only able to be deleted when viewing the Traveler Status Pending display.
