Program: WIP Subcontract Management Query

This program lets you query all information related to managed subcontract operations, including the material linked to each operation, dispatched quantities with lots and serials, returned quantities, received quantities, inspection status and operation completion status.

Exploring

Procurement teams use this program for reconciliation against supplier invoices.

Things you can do in this program include:

  • List subcontract operations by job, supplier or subcontract stock code.

  • Drill down to the material linked to each operation, with lots and serials.

  • View what has been dispatched to the supplier and what has been returned unused.

  • View the quantity received from the supplier.

  • See whether inspection tests were created on receipt and whether they have been completed.

  • See whether the operation has been marked complete.

This program is accessed from the Program List of the Syspro menu:

  • Program List > Work in Progress

An operation in a Bill of Materials (BOM) that is performed by an external supplier rather than at an internal work center. Subcontract operations are added to the Bill of Materials (BOM) using the Structures and Routings (Program List > Bill of Materials > Setup) program and are identified by setting the Manage operation option to Yes.

Topic: WIP Subcontract Operations Management

Starting

You can restrict operator access to programs by assigning them to groups and applying access control against the group (configured using the Operator Groups program).

You can restrict operator access to programs by assigning them to roles and applying access control against the role (configured using the Role Management program).

  • Only subcontract operations where Manage operation within Structures and Routings is set to Yes are returned.
