Microcorrugated
The microcorrugated record allows the user to add all Microcorrugated substrates used in the Product Engineering. The microcorrugated substrate needs to be recorded only for the Engineering to calculate its consumption and cost. For more information, refer to "Microcorrugated Consumption and Cost Calculation in the Engineering.”
The user is required to have enabled the following access options to be able to manage microcorrugated substrates:
EPS > SALES > RECORDS > IQUOTE > ENGINEERING > RAW MATERIAL > MICROCORRUGATED
Information on the Microcorrugated Record Window
Go to Sales > Records > iQuote > Engineering > Raw Material > Microcorrugated
Tip: For more information on the buttons in this toolbar refer to “Standard toolbar” in Basic Navigation.
Tip: For more information on adding or editing search features refer to "Searching” in Basic Navigation.
Tip: For more information on how to add other information in columns, refer to "Views" in Basic Navigation.
Add Microcorrugated
Tip: To be able to add microcorrugated substrates, the user must previously record a Microcorrugated coupling Specification Characteristic Class. For more information, refer to "Specification Characteristic Types.”
In the system’s main menu, click Sales > Records > iQuote > Engineering > Raw Material > Microcorrugated or enter "Microcorrugated" in the Quick Search field.
Click Add. The following screen will open:
Complete the fields as described below:
|
Field |
Description |
|
Raw Material |
Name of the microcorrugated substrate used in the Product Engineering. |
|
Cost Account |
Name of the cost account to which the microcorrugated cost shall be allocated for future cost analysis. For more information, refer to "Add Cost Accounts." |
|
Cost sub account |
Name of the cost sub account to which the microcorrugated cost shall be assigned. The Cost Sub Account belongs to the Cost Account. For more information, refer to "Add Cost Accounts.” If the appropriate cost sub account is not listed, make sure the selected cost account is correct. |
|
External Reference |
Name used for integrating the microcorrugated record with other systems. |
|
Grammage (g/mP2P) |
Microcorrugated substrate weight. This field is informational only and will not be considered in the Engineering calculations. |
|
Thickness |
Microcorrugated substrate thickness. This field is informational only and will not be considered in the Engineering calculations. |
|
Inventory Item |
Inventory item to which the c microcorrugated substrate must be linked to facilitate the material request. If the appropriate inventory item is not displayed, it is necessary to record it. For more information, refer to "Add Inventory Items.” |
|
Production Unit |
Unit of measurement to be sent as default for the modules of production for requesting materials. This field does not affect the Engineering calculation unit, which is the same as the generic Engineering component type unit. For more information, refer to "Add Engineering Component Types.” |
|
Active |
Indicates if the microcorrugated substrate will be available for use in the Engineering. |
|
Plant |
Plant which indicates a material can only be used for Production Groups in the same plant, once it is linked to this material. Once the plant is selected and the raw material saved, it will no longer be allowed to unlink the plant linked to it, therefore, it is recommended to set this configuration with caution. This field only appears if the “Separate raw materials by plant” is enabled in Sales > Records > iQuote > Commercial > Estimate General Setup |
|
Microcorrugated material |
Microcorrugated type that can be linked to a raw material in order to allow this raw material to be selected by the Engineering, whenever it is slected in the Product Specification. The microcorrugated type must be previously recorded in the Microcorrugated Coupling Specification Characteristic Class. For more information, refer to "Microcorrugated Coupling.” |
When finished, click Save.
Edit Microcorrugated
In the system’s main menu, click Sales > Records > iQuote > Engineering > Raw Material > Microcorrugated or enter "Microcorrugated" in the Quick Search field.
Click the appropriate microcorrugated substrate to select it.
Click Edit.
Edit as needed. For more information on the buttons and fields on this screen, refer to “Add Microcorrugated.”
When finished, click Save.
Delete Microcorrugated
In the system’s main menu, click Sales > Records > iQuote > Engineering > Raw Material > Microcorrugated or enter "Microcorrugated" in the Quick Search field.
Click the appropriate Microcorrugated substrate to select it.
Click Delete.
Click Yes to confirm the action.
Tip: If the selected item is being used, the system displays a message that it can not be deleted.
Microcorrugated Cost and Consumption Calculation in the Engineering
Record the microcorrugated substrate in the Microcorrugated record. For more information, refer to "Add Microcorrugated.”
Check if the Component Class 1020 – Microcorrugated substrate exists in the Engineering Component Types record. For more information, refer to the "Add Engineering Component Types.”
In production groups, link the Component Class 1020 – Microcorrugated substrate to the 1044 – Coupler (substrate/ microcorrugated) inputs. For more information, refer to "Setting functionality 1044 – Coupler (substrate/ microcorrugated).”
Enter the microcorrugated substrate cost in the raw material cost record. For more information, refer to "Add Raw Material Costs.” The microcorrugated substrate’s consumption calculation and costs are displayed in the Engineering.
