ECRESTRICTVENDOR - Restrict E/Cs to Specific Repair Order Vendors

Restrict E/Cs to Specific Repair Order Vendors

Affected Window: w_engineering_eu

Switch Set to Yes:

When set to Yes, during the Repair Order creation process when entering a P/N with associated E/Cs that have a vendor restriction, the E/Cs will not display in the R/O if the assigned vendor is not listed as the Repair Order vendor for that P/N.

Part Number 'S-1000-1300' has three repair capable vendors:

P/N EC 'S-1000-RFE' has no vendor restrictions. This will allow any vendor specified on a Repair Order to repair the part.

However, P/N EC 'S1000-2' has two vendor restrictions. This will restrict the part to ONLY be repaired by the vendors listed in the Vendor Restriction tab of the E/C.

A Repair Order was created with a vendor that is assigned as repair capable for part number 'S-1000-1300', however this vendor was not listed in the Vendor Restriction tab for the associated P/N E/Cs.

In the detail of the Repair Order, Control tab, P/N E/C 'S1000-RFE' is displayed.

Recall that this P/N E/C had no vendor restrictions at the E/C level. All P/N E/Cs with vendor restrictions will not display in the Control tab unless the assigned vendor coincides with the restricted vendors assigned to the P/N E/C.

Switch Set to No:

When set to No, during the Repair Order creation process when entering a P/N with associated E/Cs that have a vendor restriction, the E/Cs will display in the R/O even if the assigned vendor is not listed as the Repair Order vendor for that P/N.

Note: When this switch is set to No, the New and Delete buttons will not appear in the Engineering Control, Vendor Restriction tab.

Part number 'S-2000' has two repair capable vendors.

P/N E/C 'S-2014-32' has no vendor restrictions.

However, P/N EC 'S1000-2' has one vendor restriction. This will restrict the part to ONLY be repaired by the vendors listed in the Vendor Restriction tab of the E/C.

A Repair Order was created with a vendor that is assigned as repair capable for part number 'S-2000', however this vendor was not listed in the Vendor Restriction tab for the associated P/N E/Cs.

In the detail of the Repair Order, Control tab, the P/N E/Cs display disregarding the assigned vendor restrictions.
