In a Manufacturing Cloud implementation, users are finding it difficult to track information about work orders executed across various work centers.
Which three information types in the Work Order Traveler can help users in this situation?
The Work Order Traveler in Oracle Manufacturing Cloud provides detailed information about work orders to help users track and manage work orders across various work centers. The following types of information are especially useful:
Work definition details (D): This provides detailed information about the operations and resources required to complete the work order, helping users understand the manufacturing process and requirements.
Product serial information (E): Tracking serial numbers for products is critical, especially in industries where traceability and product lifecycle management are important.
Reservation against sales orders (A): This information links work orders to specific sales orders, providing clarity on how the work order aligns with customer demand.
Incorrect options:
Hard pegging of items (B) and Item on-hand quantity (C) are not typically tracked through the Work Order Traveler report, as this report focuses more on the work order's execution rather than inventory management.
A Plant Manager bought several machines for their ABC manufacturing plant. The plant is set up with a separate cost element set, ABC, in Manufacturing Cloud.
How must the Plant Manager configure these machines so that they are costed to the work order for which operations are performed on them?
When configuring machines that will be used in production operations and will incur costs associated with work orders, the correct setup for these machines involves:
Setting up the machines as a 'Resource' in the cost element set ABC: This allows the machines to be directly associated with the work orders for which they are used, ensuring that their costs are appropriately tracked and charged to the work order. Resources include equipment, labor, and other direct costs involved in production.
Incorrect options:
'Overhead' (B, D): Overhead costs typically represent indirect costs, not the direct usage of machines in production.
Cost Element Set Common (A): Since the plant uses a separate cost element set (ABC), the machines must be assigned to this specific set, not the Common cost element set.
Your client informs you that after running the "Process Item Structure Changes to Work Definitions" scheduled process, they received a workflow notification.
Which statement is NOT a workflow notification that you might get if automation is not performed?
After running the 'Process Item Structure Changes to Work Definitions' scheduled process, a series of workflow notifications may be triggered if the automation is not performed properly. The following notifications can be expected in scenarios where manual intervention is needed:
Statement B is incorrect because, in Oracle Manufacturing Cloud, if the manufacturing plant is enabled for ERES (Engineering Release Execution System), it generally implies that any changes in work definitions would still require an approval process for validation and control. The fact that ERES is enabled would not automatically bypass the approval process.
Correct Notifications:
Statement A: You may receive a notification that a replacement component has been assigned as an ad hoc item to the same operation where the original component was assigned.
Statement C: A notification may alert you that the original component is not assigned to any work definition operation, signaling a potential issue that requires manual intervention.
Statement D: It is also possible to receive a notification indicating that the original component has been assigned to more than one work definition operation, which may require review or adjustment.
You are defining a standard operation for visual inspection. You want the completion of this standard operation to be reported in all work orders that reference it.
Which setup task must you perform to achieve this?
In Oracle Manufacturing Cloud, when defining a standard operation such as visual inspection, marking it as a Count Point ensures that its completion will be tracked and reported for all work orders referencing it. A Count Point operation is one where progress must be explicitly recorded, allowing visibility into work order completion.
Selecting the Count Point check box ensures that this operation becomes a mandatory checkpoint where users must report completion in all related work orders. This is essential for operations like visual inspection, where reporting completion is critical to production quality.
Your customer runs production 24 x 7 x 365 and wants to track Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) online.
Which key setup can they use to achieve this?
To track Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) in real-time, Oracle Manufacturing Cloud can integrate with IoT solutions. The correct setup involves:
Enabling IoT Production Monitoring and turning on synchronization to IoT Production Monitoring in the Inventory Organization. This allows real-time data from the shop floor to be captured, processed, and used to monitor equipment effectiveness, performance, and availability.
Incorrect options:
IoT Fleet Monitoring (A) and IoT Asset Monitoring (B, D) focus on tracking assets and fleets, which are more relevant for logistics or asset management, not production monitoring for OEE.
