Shop Floor Manager (OSFM) and Business to Business (B2B) Tips and Fabless Semiconductor Implementation Example Jerry Edwards
Definitions: • Shop Floor Manager (OSFM): Lot centric and lot/serial number centric manufacturing product • Stage: Product physical state and unit of measure. Semiconductor stages include: • FAB, BUMP, SORT, DIE, ASSEMBLY, TEST, FGI • Adaptor: Custom software to generate Oracle application transactions based on vendor reported events • Binning: Process that results in multiple output parts based on process results (usually test)
Definitions: …continued • Event: Action affecting a product lot that vendor must report (Receipt, Start, Move, Completion, Ship, etc.) • Data element: specific data column required in an event. Events have multiple data elements. • Business to Business Communications (B2B): Subcontractor manufacturing event communication and processing into Oracle applications. • Rosettanet 7B1 PIP: Process information protocol for manufacturing events.
Presentation Scope: • OSFM Best Practices • Product structure • Network routing scope • OSFM Tips and tricks Mapping subcontractors into OSFM • Single inventory organization for all vendors • Vendor specific inventory organizations • B2B Process Outline • Fabless Semiconductor (B2B) Functional Specifications and Solution Design Example • B2B Process Outline Details
OSFM Product Structure Suggestions • Define separate part numbers for each stagewherelots will flow in and out of stock (subinventories) and where wafers are converted to unassembled die. • Typical stages: FAB / SORT / DIE/ASSEMBLED DIE / TESTED DIE / FINISHED DIE • Network routing scope: • start and complete work orders at the same vendor for a single part number (stage) • Keep routings simple: add operations to track progress and separate pay points. • Define alternate paths if required (rework for example)
OSFM TIPS & TRICKS • Co-Products: Use co-product %’s to enter test binning expected results to drive over-planning by ASCP. • Note: user must enter primary bill via co-products form to use this feature. User cannot enter bill via bill of material form and then add co-product %’s in co-products form. • WIP Lot Bonus: • Starting job value is based on previous operation • Start network routings with dummy IN operation and use WIP Lot Bonus at subsequent operations only. Do not use WIP Lot Bonus into the first operation as component value is excluded resulting in inaccurate job costs
OSFM TIPS & TRICKS • Binning Process Options: • During Work Order: Perform WIP Split and update assembly for each bin. Note: Update assembly treats update as a move so do not use update assembly at queue intra-operation step of an operation with OSP resource or you will duplicate purchasing activity. Work around: Move lot out of queue intra-operation step to prevent duplicate purchasing activity. • Post Work order: Complete work order, then perform Inventory lot split and Inventory lot translate for each bin to change the part numbers. • OSP Receiving: • Assign OSP resources so that quantity moved in will be correct OSP requisition quantity. For example: assembly charges for good quantity only. Assign OSP to operation after assembly. • Automate OSP receipts based on blanket releases.
OSFM TIPS & TRICKS • Supervisor Workbench versus Move form • Viewing many job versus playing transactions for specific jobs
OSFM TIPS & TRICKS • Supervisor Workbench versus Move form • Move form faster for playing specific job moves.
OSFM TIPS & TRICKS • Partial Move Behavior • Move quantity retains mother lot name (not updateable) instead of default child lot name. This is mismatch to real world lot naming as move quantity is usually the child lot.
OSFM TIPS & TRICKS • Lot Create Work Order default lot name • Default lot name assumes a split. If using full lot drop the suffix.
OSFM TIPS & TRICKS • Recommended Custom Reports: • Work Order Location for all released jobs • Actual yield versus estimated yield by job and part number based on user entered date range. • For Automated B2B include a form to perform: • Event level data element corrections • Event status changes feature to trigger reprossing the corrected event
Suggested Enhancements • Sub-lots: Use for die parts • Enables user to track good die by wafer in die bank. Each wafer is a die sub-lot. User selects sub-lots when selecting lots and lot create form accumulates quantities into the child lot. Today user cannot track good die by wafer unless treating each wafer as a separate lot (not feasible). • Co-products • Enable user to enter co-products and %’s for bills of material created via bill of material form, not just the co-products form. • Lot Create: • Default mother lot number into resulting lot field. • Add default split lot extension if user enters a quantity less than full lot (add extension when user tabs from quantity field)
Suggested Enhancements • Genealogy network (source and where used) • Explode with single select • Control with profile option
Vendor mapping to OSFM Options • Single inventory organization for all vendors • One Inventory organization per vendor • Hybrid: • Separate inventory organizations for major vendors • Single inventory organization for smaller volume vendors
Mapping subcontractors to OSFM • Single inventory organization for all vendors • Represent vendors via subinventory names to represent vendor / product stage • Setup an intransit subinventory to track lots moving between vendors • + for monthly close • One inventory organization to close • - For Advance Supply Chain Planning • Sourcing rules apply to inventory organizations so ASCP cannot recommend vendors via sourcing rules • Excludes product transit time among vendors • Limits resource capacity planning in network routings
Mapping subcontractors to OSFM • Separate inventory organizations for each vendor • Subinventories represent product stage • - for product costs (more complex) • - for monthly close (multiple organizations to close) • + for Advanced supply chain planning • Sourcing rules for vendor inventory organization • Explicit transit times • Vendor specific resource capacity planning

B2B Process Outline… • Collecting vendor event data… Sample Stage and Event Matrix
B2B Process Outline… • Collecting vendor event data… • Define data elements for each stage and event combination
B2B Process Outline… • Collecting vendor event data… Stage and event example: SHIP at FAB EVENT CODE SHIP Vendor ID This field represents the Partner’s DUNS number and needs to be reported by every partner. Vendor Location ID This field represents the Location DUNS number for Vendor Site location at which the respective manufacturing stage is being processed. To Vendor ID This field represents the ship-to vendor’s Location DUNS number.
B2B Process Outline… • Collecting vendor event data… SHIP at FAB: Stage and event Example continued… Transaction ID Vendors need to report a transaction identifier that will be unique for all the events that are being reported by the vendor. This field eliminates confusion between user and vendor when errors occur with a transaction. Transaction Date and Time Vendors need to report all the transactions in GMT time and in 24 hr format. Code the value as per xml format ‘YYYYMMDDThhmmssZ’. Part Number This field represents a user part number being purchased as per PO line provided to the FAB vendor . Manufacturer Part Number: This field represents the FAB part number assigned by the Wafer Foundry that cross references to the user part number.
B2B Process Outline… • Collecting vendor event data… SHIP at FAB: Stage and event Example continued… Lot Stage Identifier This field represents physical location of the lot in the manufacturing cycle. This is a hardcoded field and needs to be reported as “FAB” all the time for all transactions being reported as shipment from the FAB vendors. Lot Type Classification This field represents the classification of the Lot and has two possible choices, Engineering Production This is needed if vendors cannot omit engineering lots from reporting. Lot Number This field represents the FAB assigned lot number to the lot that is being shipped by the FAB vendor. Each event requires a unique lot number. Do not report the same part number, lot number for multiple shipments.
B2B Process Outline… • Collecting vendor event data… SHIP at FAB: Stage and event Example continued… Lot Quantity This field represents the full lot quantity being shipped for the purchased part number PO Number This field represents the NetLogic PO number for the purchased wafer. and lot PO Line Number (optional) This field represents the NetLogic assigned PO Line number for the purchased part number and lot. Note: automation will be easier if the FAB vendor can supply the PO line number in addition to the PO number. REPEAT FOR ALL PRODUCT LINE STAGE/EVENTS
