In Oracle Manufacturing Cloud, to make a resource (R1) available outside the regular shift for a specific day, you need to create aresource exception. This allows you to override the default shift schedule and make additional units of the resource available.

Click outside the existing shift timeensures that the exception applies to non-working hours.

Select Create Resource Exceptionfrom the Actions menu to initiate the exception.

Populate the Start and Duration fieldsto define the non-working period during which the resource will be available.

Enter 4 units in the Availability Override columnto ensure that 4 units of resource R1 are made available for use during the exception period.

In Oracle Manufacturing Cloud, to assign all units of resource R2 across both day and night shifts for the work center WC1, follow these steps:

Associate R2 with WC1– This step ensures that the resource R2 is linked to the work center.

Select the Available 24 Hours check box– By selecting this option, you indicate that the resource is available for both shifts across the full 24-hour period.

Enter 4 in the Day Shift and Night Shift columns– Inputting 4 units in both shifts ensures that all units of R2 are available for use during the entire day and night shifts.

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.

To ensure thatPushcomponents are automatically defaulted when reporting material consumption on theReport Material Transactionpage, you must configure the system to use theWork Definitionas the default source for transactions.

Setting Default Transaction Mode to Work Definitionensures that the system automatically pulls the component list and quantities as defined in the work order or work definition when operators perform material transactions. This setting streamlines the material consumption process forPushsupply type components.

When enabling audit trail functionality to ensure compliance with the US Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR Part 11), certain actions related to work definitions and standard operations are audited for changes such as creation, update, and deletion. However, not all aspects are tracked in the audit trail.

Item structure component attributes referenced from Product Information Management (PIM)are not included in the audit trail. PIM attributes are managed separately from manufacturing-specific data, and changes to these components are not captured in the standard operations audit trail.

Audited components typically include:

Work definition header and version attributes

Descriptive flexfields (DFFs) at any level

Attachments at any level

Operation resources, including alternate resources

When pick release creates movement requests for project-based work orders, there are several key points regarding expenditure information:

Statement D:The expenditure type and the expenditure organization from the work order are not referenced onto the shop floor movement requests– This statement is correct because the expenditure type and organization are not typically included in the shop floor movement requests. These requests focus more on the material movement aspects, while expenditure details are managed elsewhere in the system.

In Oracle Manufacturing Cloud, when defining a standard operation such as visual inspection, marking it as aCount Pointensures that its completion will be tracked and reported for all work orders referencing it. ACount Pointoperation is one where progress must be explicitly recorded, allowing visibility into work order completion.

Selecting the Count Point check boxensures 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.
