Discrete Jobs

Definite quantity of job used to manufacture the quantity.
II. Types of Jobs
i. Standard
ii. Non- Standard
Standard Job will have the assembly with the defined Bill, Routing structure from BOM.
Job Type of Standard identifies the job as being: A discrete job that controls the material and operation
requirements used to build assemblies and collect manufacturing costs
Nonstandard Job Type identifies the job as being:A discrete job that controls the material and collects costs for
miscellaneous activities, such as:
Rework
Field service repair
Upgrade
Disassemble
Maintenance
Engineering prototypes

Supply Type

i. Based on Bill
Components required for the Bill has to be issued. Method of issuing the components is given as supply type in Bill of Material. If we can use the same , select based on Bill.
ii. Push
If all the components to be used as PUSH type, select PUSH. In PUSH, we need to issue the components through WIP Component Issue transactions before starting the Job.
iii. Operation Pull
Components Issue will be taken care of by the system itself. Once the operation is completed, required components will be pulled from the mentioned supply subinventory .
iv. Assembly Pull
Once the assembly is completed, required components for that assembly will be pulled from the given supply subinventory.
v. Supplier
Issue of item by supplier, need not to transact this item . It is only for reference only to the WIP Person as this component need not to be used.
vi .Bulk
Bulk component requirements can be viewed and are displayed on reports. They can be used to communicate to the shop floor that bulk components must be used but need not be transacted.Bulk supply type components are not backflushed nor do they default when issuing all components for an assembly. we can, however, manually issue specific bulk components to a discrete job or repetitive schedule.
