Manufacture On Demand is wizard driven, and there are no Menus to navigate in order to reach Functions. However, it is still beneficial to get an overview of how to reach the entry points for the Functions you need to execute, and as you will see, it cannot get any easier than it is.
Opening of the MOD Wizard presents the Screen shown below, and we discern 5 major entry points here.
Now that we have considered the opening Screen, it is necessary to follow through on the Quotations, WIP and Management entry Points to see where they lead.
QUOTATIONS
To open a new Quotation Sheet, just choose NEW. To prepare Quotations already created by yourself with NEW, choose PREPARE. To enter Quotations requiring your Approval, choose APPROVE. To render Quotations you submitted for Approval, and that have indeed been approved, choose RENDER AND PRESENT. To perform acceptance of a Quotation, or an extension, or to record that a Quotation has been declined by the Customer, or to Cancel a Quotation, choose ACCEPT EXTEND DECLINE CANCEL.
For a Report on current Quotations, choose REPORTS, and to Query any Quotation, just choose QUERY.
[Hint: The detail of how to deal with Quotations and Sheets are described in other User Manuals. The purpose of this Manual is simply to show you how to get there.]
WORK IN PROGRESS
Once again, the QUERY option allows you to Query any MOD Sheet, while the OPEN ORDER REPORTS provide a list of the Open Order Reports available to you.
Methods 1 and 2 are your choices for finding and entering an MOD Sheet (in WIP State) of your choice. With method 1, you know the Sheet Number, and enter the Number, then choose OK to open the Sheet. Method 2 is provided for when you do not know the Sheet Number, in which case the system will find it for you, and open it.
[Hint: When you choose to specify the Sheet Number directly, you do not need to type the entire number, i.e. for Sheet 'MOD000023', you can simply type '23' ]
All further functions related to MOD (except for the Management Options shown immediately hereafter), are connected directly on the MOD Sheets, and there is no further Navigation required. The Sheets themselves are explained in further detail in the other MOD User Manuals.
MANAGEMENT options
Choose MASTER FILE OPTIONS to edit the Control Parameters for MOD, or perform Master File Maintenance.
Choose PRIVILEGE PROFILES (if you have access to those) to link directly to definition of the MOD User Profiles.
Choose WIP JOBS REPORT for a Report on Work in Progress Jobs and Sheets.
Choose OPEN PURCHASE ORDERS for Report Options on Open or Incomplete MOD Purchase Orders.
