This document defines the steps to setup Outside Processing and the procedure
steps to run the OSP process. First you must have setup the OSP Resource and
OSP Item. Setting up the item is just like setting up any other item except you
must use the Outside Processing Item Template. You must also be sure to let
the List Price item attribute for the requisition import process to work properly.

Now you need to setup the OSP resource. Use the navigation below to setup the
resource.

Always setup the OSP


resource with a type of
“Amount” and the
charge type as “PO
Receipt” and the UOM
to “USD”. Link the
resource to the OSP
item you setup
previously. Make sure
the resource is costed
and set the rate to 1
dollar.

Once you have setup the resource and saved it, you now need to assign it to a
department. Use the screen below for navigation.

When the department form


opens you can query up the
department you wish to add
the resource too. You can
then press the
RESOURCES button to
open the resources form.

routing.

generate the requisitions for
the OSP items. Refer to the
“Workbench to Receipt”
document for the details of
how to process the

The only differences you will see are the following:

When the work orders are released from the workbench, if there are OSP
operations, then a background process called “requisition import” will run
to create the requisitions for the OSP items.

When the OSP items are received, they are NOT received into stock but
instead into the Work Order.

Below is a flow diagram of the OSP process.
