You can use WIP parameters to define modes of operation and to assign default values for various work in process functions. You can only define one set of WIP parameters per organization. The following table summarizes WIP parameters and their defaults: Parameters Discrete Default Discrete Class Default Lot Number Respond to Sales Order Changes Repetitive Recognize Period Variances Autorelease Days ATP Component ATP Rule Average Costing Default Completion Cost Source System Option Cost Type Auto Compute Final Completion Move Transactions Shop Floor Status for PO Move Resources Require Scrap Account Allow Creation of New Operations Allow Moves Over No Move Shop Floor Statuses Optional Optional Optional Optional Null Disabled Disabled Enabled Required System Calculated Cond.

Discrete Parameters
The following parameters affect discrete manufacturing. Default Discrete Class If Category Default WIP Classes are not setup and you are defining a standard discrete job or completing a work order-less schedule, this parameter determines which accounting class is used as the default. See: Default WIP Classes and Associating WIP Accounting Classes with Categories. You can only select an active, standard discrete accounting class when defining this parameter. See: Discrete Accounting Classes, Defining Discrete Jobs Manually, and Autocreating Final Assembly Orders. Default Lot Number Type Parameter Determines how lot numbers are assigned to discrete jobs. The options are as follows: Job Name Base job lot numbers on the job name you enter when you define the job. This is the default. Based on Base job lot numbers on the lot number rules you defined in Oracle Inventory Rules Inventory. See: Lot Control and Defining Revision, Lot, Serial Parameters. Respond to Sales Order Changes Determines if and how the system responds to changes to assemble-to-order (ATO) sales orders and their related discrete jobs. The options are as follows:
Never
If you implement changes to a sales order in Oracle Order Entry, and that sales order is linked to one or more discrete jobs, the system ignores the sales order change and does not stop the current production for the discrete job. Always If you unassign the configuration item from the sales order using the ATO Configurable Item window in Oracle Order Entry/Shipping and if the linked jobs are Unreleased, then the statuses of the linked jobs are changed to On Hold. See: Linking ATO Configurations. When If you implement changes to a sales order in Oracle Order Entry, and that sales Linked 1 order is the only sales order linked to a single discrete job, Oracle Order Entry to 1 automatically changes the status of the discrete job to On Hold. You can then update it to reflect the changes to the sales order.
Repetitive Parameters
The following parameters affect repetitive manufacturing. Recognize Period Variances Determines which repetitive schedule variances are posted to the general ledger when an accounting period is closed. The options are as follows: All Schedules Post variances for all repetitive schedules. Cancelled and Complete- No Post variances for repetitive schedules with statuses of Charges Only Cancelled or Complete-No Charges. Autorelease Days Determines the time period within which the system automatically releases the next Unreleased schedule. When you complete a repetitive schedule, the system searches within the autorelease time frame for an Unreleased schedule, or for a schedule with a status of Released, Complete, or On Hold. If one exists, the status of the newly completed schedule changes to Complete-No Charges and the future schedule is automatically released. If no such schedule exists, the status of the schedule changes to Complete. If more than one schedule exists within the autorelease time frame, only one schedule is released.
ATP Parameter
The following parameter affects material availability checking. Component ATP Rule Determines which ATP Rule is used as the default when checking the material availability of component requirements. You can enter any user-defined ATP rule. See: Viewing Component ATP Information and Defining ATP Rules.
Auto Compute Final Completion Determines whether the Final Completion in the Completion Transaction window defaults to checked (Yes).
direct charge. If an intraoperation step that disallows moves is found, a warning message is displayed and the move is disallowed. Additional Information: The Move Transactions: Allow Skipping Over No Move Statuses security function can be set to override 'no move' shop floor statuses. See: Security Functions. Direct charge operations between the From and To Operations are not considered when the system checks for 'No Move' shop floor statuses. Scrap and Reject intraoperation steps at autocharge operations are also not considered. See: Shop Floor Statuses.
Determines how lots are verified during backflush transactions. The options are as follows: All Verify that the lots automatically selected were the ones consumed by the assemblies. Exceptions Verify exceptions only. If the lot requirement for the component cannot be Only filled automatically using the FIFO method, you can assign lots to components manually.
