Workbag |
|
A workbag is a kind of bag / envelope for a style required to be produced by a contractor, which is filled with style components like stone, diamond, diamond set, findings and casting. Workbag maximum quantity is decided while creating style. Workbag can be prepared for less then predefined quantity but not more then predefined quantity. |
 |
Workbag Split |
|
This feature helps user to split a workbag. On splitting, two new workbags will be created with the quantity assigned by user and original workbag will be voided. Also user can specify how to split the components filled (Diamond/Casting) in the original workbag. |
 |
Workbag Cancellation |
|
With this option user is able to cancel a workbag prepared. Workbag cancellation may be due to any reason. If workbag quantity is to be partially cancelled or not the full/original quantity is to be cancelled, then workbag is needed to be split in two workbags. Before cancellation if components are issued to workbag then the user has to receive the components back from workbag. It's necessary to empty a workbag before canceling it. |
 |
Workbag Transfer |

Here user can specify departments as stages so that it will be like transfer of workbag from one department to other. This makes it easier to track a workbag and its current & previous stage. When receiver acknowledges the workbag at receiving end then only the current stage of workbag gets affected. |

 |
Issue Components |

Once the workbag is prepared for style, style components (diamond/stone, casting and diamond set) are issued to fill the workbag. Issue components option helps user to create and maintain transactions related to issuance of components to contractor. Components can be issued in a WIP bag if the WIP style inventory is maintained. |
 |
Receive Components |
|

Also if user has to cancel a workbag which is filled with components then first it is needed to empty the bag. With the help of this option user can receive components back and then workbag can be cancelled. |
 |
Contractor Memo |
|
After the components are being issued to workbag/WIP Bag, the Bag is sent to contractor on Contractor memo. This option is used to issue a memo to the contractor for the work assigned to him. This will keep a record of the material given to him with the instructions that may be specific for that bag. A memo gives a record of the open pieces lying with the contractor. Memo can be made for multiple workbags/WIP Bags also. |
 |
Lab Memo |

Lab memo is prepared when style is sent for testing/certification at Lab. Style may be either received as new or repaired style from contractor. If WIP Style Inventory is maintained then user can send only WIP bag for Lab memo and not the workbag or loose style. |
 |
