The H-Factor

This topic came from my co-worker Paul, who was asked to assist a customer with his problem:

From the Customer:  I either want the nipples
and associated fittings to be entirely loose (listed on the “loose” picklist
and eliminated from the lines fabrication sheet), or entirely made on (leave
them in the fabrication sheets but add the items to the “fabbed”
picklist.  As it is, there is confusion as to what is actually “loose” and
what is “pulled on”, as well as inventory issues associated with the missed
fabricated items.

Paul's Response: Pick the Process buttons, then pick the general Setup Tab and check the box that says Count Make On’s for
Nipples. If this is checked, then
nipples and fittings for nipples are treated as fabricated material. If unchecked
nipples and fittings for nipples are treated as loose material.
