Mark

Type in a name for the mark that is associated with the drawing it is to be added to.

Description

Select a description from the drop down menu. If a description you require is not available, use the Ellipsis button to open the lookup form to add another into the free text field.

Is Assembly Mark

Select this check box if this is an assembly consisting of multiple child marks. The Site Assembled check box becomes available. The Parent Mark field becomes unavailable.

If this mark is not an assembled mark, the Parent Mark field is available and you can select a parent.

If you make this an assembly mark, when you access another mark, you will be able to find it in the drop down list for the parent mark.

See Detailed list terminology for more information.

Site Assembled

Select this check box if the mark is an assembly mark and is to be assembled on site.

This is only available if the Is Assembly Mark check box is ticked.

Parent Mark

If this mark is a child mark of a larger assembly, select a parent from the drop-down list.

Quantity

Total Quantity

Specify the quantity of the mark that is required. If the mark is a child mark, the quantity is multiplied by the quantity of the parent to give a total quantity.

Paint Finish

Select a paint finish from the drop-down list or click the ellipsis button to create a new one.

Execution Class

Select an execution class: 1, 2, 3 or 4.

See About execution classes.

Coverage Factor

If this mark requires a paint finish, specify a coverage factor here. This is a multiple of the actual amount of paint that is required. It is used to account for wastage. STRUMIS automatically applies a multiple of 2 by default.

Create Production Work Order

Select this check box if you wish to track the mark through Production Control.

Receivable into Inventory

Use this to flag if the mark is to be fabricated and then stored in your Inventory for future use. When you set the flag, an extra field is displayed, where you must specify the code, size and grade for the section that you want to receive into Inventory.

When you finish creating the Detailed Listing, you will go on to create a work order for the mark. The work order is progressed through production and the fabrication of the mark is completed. At this point, you can receive the completed mark into Inventory using a Receive From Work Order transaction. See About Receive From Work Order. The new Inventory item has the same length and width as the mark's main member. You might use this functionality, for example, to fabricate a plate girder and receive it into the inventory as a single item.
