Manufacturing Jobs Options enables you to setup how you want DMS to handle copying template jobs to other jobs and what to set the job state to if an operation is put on hold:


  1. On template copy blank Job Identification.  If this option is selected, when you copy a template job the job identification will be set to blank.
  2. On template copy blank Part Number.  If this option is selected, when you copy a template job the part number will be set to blank.
  3. On template copy blank Planner.  If this option is selected, when you copy a template job the planner will be set to blank.
  4. On template copy enter Job Identification.  If this option is selected, when you copy a template job you will be prompted to enter a job identification.  If you do not select this option, you cannot enter a job identification during the copy.
  5. On template copy enter Part Number.  If this option is selected, when you copy a template job you will be prompted to enter a part number.  If you do not select this option, you cannot enter a part number during the copy.
  6. On template copy enter Planner.  If this option is selected, when you copy a template job you will be prompted to enter a planner.  If you do not select this option, you cannot enter a planner during the copy.
  7. On Operation Hold set job state to.  This option informs DMS what Job State to set the job to if an operation is placed on Hold.  For example, you may want to setup an Job State of "Operation On Hold" that a job is set to if an operation is put on hold.
