Processing Packaging Assessment - Ros - Quiz, Flashcards & Trivia

1. You are adding animal feed to an existing batch. What information must be entered manually in MES?

The time the material was scrapped

Tote Location

Tote Dimensions

The batch number and the quantity of the material added to the batch

In MES, when adding animal feed to an existing batch, the batch number and the quantity of the material added to the batch must be entered manually. This information is crucial for accurately tracking and documenting the addition of the feed to the batch. The batch number helps in identifying and differentiating the specific batch, while the quantity ensures that the correct amount of feed is added.

In MES, when adding animal feed to an existing batch, the batch number and the quantity of the material added to the batch must be entered manually. This information is crucial for accurately tracking and documenting the addition of the feed to the batch. The batch number helps in identifying and differentiating the specific batch, while the quantity ensures that the correct amount of feed is added.

2. True or False: You can save a partially completed DED and access it later to finish the entry.

True

False

The correct answer is False because you cannot save a partially completed DED (Data Entry Document) and access it later to finish the entry. Once you start filling out a DED, you need to complete it in one session as there is no option to save it and continue later.

The correct answer is False because you cannot save a partially completed DED (Data Entry Document) and access it later to finish the entry. Once you start filling out a DED, you need to complete it in one session as there is no option to save it and continue later.

3. How many production orders can be set to "Running" status at any time on any given day at the Palletizer?

One

Two

None, the Attendant or Operator cannot change the status of a production order, only the Supervisor

As many as are available

At the Palletizer, only one production order can be set to "Running" status at any time on any given day. This means that the Attendant, Operator, or Supervisor can only change the status of one production order to "Running" at a time. Any additional production orders will have to wait until the current one is completed or its status is changed.

4. In the new system, MES will automatically trigger the Operator to pull quality samples when it is time to do so.

True

False

The given statement is false. According to the statement, the MES (Manufacturing Execution System) will automatically trigger the Operator to pull quality samples when it is time to do so. However, this statement is incorrect because in the new system, it is unlikely that the MES will automatically trigger the Operator. The system may have other mechanisms or processes in place to prompt the Operator to pull quality samples, but it cannot be assumed that the MES will do so automatically.

5. Which systems are part of the SSI Landscape?

Wonderware (MES)

FLEX

SAP

CIM

Answers A, B and C

Answers A, C and D

The correct answer is "Answers A, B and C". This means that Wonderware (MES), FLEX, and SAP are all part of the SSI Landscape.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Answers A, B and C". This means that Wonderware (MES), FLEX, and SAP are all part of the SSI Landscape.

6. Which of the following statements is true about batches?

Every pallet of finished goods produced has a unique batch number.

Each bag of gas flush product will have a unique batch number

Each pallet of animal feed will share the same batch number: 88888888

Every pallet of a vendor’s packaging material must have a unique LFC batch number

not-available-via-ai

Explanation

not-available-via-ai

7. Select the true statement.

Consumption against a production order can be entered as early as one day prior to the start of the production order and up to five days post-production, or until the production order has been sent to SAP

Consumption can only be completed real-time. Consumption corrections must be completed by a supervisor

Consumption against a production order can be entered as early as two days prior to the start of the production order and up to three days post-production

In MES, you first click on the “Consume” button to turn cheese that drops on the floor into Animal Feed

not-available-via-ai

Explanation

not-available-via-ai

8. Which inventory can be viewed in MES?

Finished Good inventory

Cellulose batches

Staged inventory from the warehouse

None of the above

MES stands for Manufacturing Execution System, which is a software system used to manage and monitor the production process on the shop floor. It primarily focuses on real-time data collection, tracking, and control of manufacturing operations. In MES, the inventory that can be viewed typically includes raw materials, work in progress (WIP), and components used in the production process. Therefore, none of the options provided (Finished Good inventory, Cellulose batches, Staged inventory from the warehouse) are correct as they do not align with the typical inventory that can be viewed in MES.

9. Select the true statement.

Raw ingredients / packaging materials are scrapped on the MES Produce screen

Raw ingredients / packaging materials are scrapped on the MES Consume screen

Cheese is scrapped on the MES Animal Feed screen

The “Batch Fully Consumed” checkbox must be selected when scrapping raw ingredients / packaging materials.

not-available-via-ai

Explanation

not-available-via-ai

10. How are box materials consumed in the system?

Box materials do not get consumed because boxes are non-batch-managed (non-lot) material

The system backflushes (automatically consumes) these non-lot materials

Box materials need to be manually consumed in MES

You can only “reverse-consume” box materials

The correct answer is that the system backflushes (automatically consumes) these non-lot materials. This means that the system automatically deducts the usage of box materials from inventory as they are used in the production process.
