Create Container Configuration: Level 99 (LOT) /Level 100 (Container)

There are different configurations for Containers Level 99 (LOT) and level 100 (Container). See bellow the differences between them.

** Container Level = 99: Configuration

To create a container configuration, go to Multi-Level Containerization > Container Configuration > Task Panel and click on Add Container Configuration.

The Container Configuration Maintenance screen is displayed:

Figure 10: Container Configuration Maintenance

Container Configuration fields description:

Container Level: defines the container level (99 to 999) – default is Empty. For this topic, the level used is 99(LOT). The default Container Levels, 99 - LOT, 100 - CONTAINER, 110 - SKID and 120 - PALLET cannot be edited or deleted, it’s created automatically by the application.

SFDC Lot Rules:

• S/N Procedure: not used when Serial Mask is specified. The field can contain either (i) a predefined program filename or (ii) an algorithm number, if the algorithm was defined using the Algorithm Tool – default Empty;
• Lot Mask: not used when Serial Algorithm Procedure is specified. Up to 30 characters in length. The mask of the serial number for the container or lot. Using a serial mask, container serialization schemes can be different per part number – default Empty;

To manage the container levels click on Manage icon:

Figure 11: Container configuration Maintenance

The Manage Level screen is displayed:

Figure 12: Container Level Maintenance

The user is able to Add, Edit or Delete container levels.

Create a new container level

Enter the "Container Level" with a value between 99 to 999 and the "Level Description" with a value that does not exist in the database. Click on OK to finish.

The new container level will be displayed in the containers level list and the user will be able to select it when creating/editing a container configuration.

Edit/delete a container level

Edit/delete container level: (maintenance button) can be performed at any time except for a default value or a container definition that already exists for that level; otherwise, if there are no definitions, editing or deleting a container level is allowed. Type 99 (LOT) cannot be edited. Also, all types without a container configuration associated can be deleted. If a definition already exists, then the container level cannot be modified.

Figure 14: Container Level – Edit

Figure 15: Container Level - Delete

** Container Level = 100: SFDC Container Rules section

New configuration was added for level 100 and will run just in the MDS Client. Just configuration with algorithm type = Container will run in the SFDC.

It supports the following options:

• Revision Controlled;
• Shop Order Controlled;
• Auto Close;
• Dimensions (MDS Client only);
• Shipping Level
• Multi Part
• S/N Procedure
• Container Mask

General Rules:

After entering all mandatory fields, click on the "OK" button and confirm the configuration creation. The container configuration list is updated with the new container configuration, with the inserted data.

It is necessary to use the same "Level" for all records with the same "Description". For example, if you create a level 120 and say that the name is "Overpack Box", then any other record which is added later that has the description "Overpack Box" needs to be level 120.

Note: The application cannot show obsolete part numbers for selection during the creation of a container configuration.

Create Multi-Level Configuration Containers: Type > 100

To create a new Container Configuration, click on Add Container Configuration button in the task panel.

Figure 16: Add Container Configuration

The Container Configuration Maintenance window is displayed:

Figure 17: Multi-Level Container Configuration Maintenance

The following fields are displayed just for containers >100: Container Level, Level Description, Part Number, Project ID, Active, Capacity, Label Program and Disable printing when container is not full (checking this option, the container configuration will print only when the container is full).

The following check boxes are displayed as Multi Level Container Rule:

• Revision Controlled: Revision Controlled (All, No, Yes): YES means only one revision can be containerized together. Please correct and check the default value.
• Shop Order Controlled: Yes / No. Yes allows only units from a single shop order to be containerized together – default No;
• Shipping Level: Yes / No. Yes defines that a specific container is the Shipping level of containerization – default No;
• Auto Close: Yes / No – default No;
• S/N Procedure: Show all “COPS Container” algorithms created in Algorithm Tool – default Empty. Not used when Serial Mask is specified. The field can contain either (i) a predefined program filename or (ii) an algorithm number, if the algorithm was defined using the Algorithm Tool – default Empty;
• Multi Part: Allow multiple part number in a container. It is possible to add elements from another part number, but it must have the same Project Id.

In Addition, the user can define the Container dimension filling the weight (kg), height (m), length (m), volume (m3) and width (m). Selecting the Dimension per Unit flag, it is possible to fill for each configuration container. If the dimension is in different measure, the data will be converted.

Print/Export All Filtered Container Configuration

To Print/Export all Filtered Container Configurations, click on Print/Export Container Configurations button in the tasks panel.

A report is generated:
