The System/Assembly Positions frame is used to designate which Position Codes are valid for a system/assembly code and which position codes are not valid.
These position codes indicate locations on a unit, such as front, rear, side, left, right, etc. and are created and maintained on the Position Codes frame and the System/Assembly Codes are setup and maintained on the System/Assembly Codes frame.
This frame is similar to the System Positions code except that it is used for System/Assembly combinations as opposed to just System Codes.
Validated Position Codes
In the System-Assembly section of the frame type in a valid System/Assembly Code or double click in the Code field to select one from the list of values (LOV).
For codes that do not have Valid Position Codes setup yet, all of the available Position Codes will populate in the Invalid Position Codes Column.
To move a code over to the Valid Position Codes Column, click to highlight the code you want to move. Then click the << button to move it over. Click the Save button.
For codes that have Valid Position Codes, you would click the >> button to move them over to the invalid column, then click Save.
System Flags
5016 – Use Position Code on WO? (N - No, Y - Yes, A - Advanced) – If this flag is set to Yes, then the Position Code field will be displayed on the Part Issue tab of the Work Order frame and Part Request frame. If this flag is set to Advanced multiple position codes can be entered when the system or system/assembly code ALWAYS requires a position code entry and the quantity exceeds one.
