As I am sure you know, ATS has a number of different contract variations based on customer needs. In some sites, we are responsible for purchasing parts and managing the crib. In other sites, we may manage the crib, but all part transactions are handled outside of eFACTORYPRO.
If your site's inventory is purchased and tracked in EFP, the system automatically validates when material is not in stock, and places the Task on HOLD/Waiting on Materials until the part is received into stock. Because your site is not responsible for inventory, that validation is skipped in the system.
1. From the Mobile App, find the appropriate Task. Click on the Summary Icon.
2. Select the drop-down arrow next to status and choose HOLD.
3. From the drop-down arrow next to status reason choose Waiting on Materials.
4. Select SAVE.
5. The Task now shows in the Grid and in the summary panel as HOLD/ Waiting On Materials (WMAT).
Once the part is delivered to the site, change the status to In Progress.
As a best practice, you may want to add a note to the Technician once the part has arrived.
