Enter Dock Code

Explanation

Use this activity to enter dock codes that are used to specify delivery information. The information is used in IFS/Kanban and IFS/Supplier Scheduling and is then transferred to the purchase order line and incorporated into the sent supplier schedule.

Prerequisites

• You can only add docks to sites to which your user ID is connected.
• There must not be any dock or subdock with the same ID as the one you enter for the specific site.

System Effects

Once the dock code (and subdock code) has been entered, the information can be used when defining Kanban circuits and preparing supplier schedule lines.
