My supervisor had explained to me about the conceptual . In production control ,  the production planner and the material planner are related each other .

Production planner
- buildsheet ( fullfill all tge requirement )

Material planner
- deal with a supplier

I'm focusing more on material planning because i'm in that team . As a material planner, we have to set up the material that going to use to make the product . Example , lets say our company make an Iphone , then they need screen , button , chip and gold wire . Then , the production planner inform us that button for the iphone do not enough . So , we need to fill up the stock that still not enough and deal with the supplier . 3 components that very important such as minimum order quantity , standard pack quantity and lead time need to know a  material planner .

Common things that I need to know for Purchase Order .
Incoterm ( delivery term )
- Exw ( Ex Works )
can be used for any transport mode / more than one transport mode
- FOB (  Free On Board )
Transported by sea / inland waterway
Example : has direct access to the vessel for loading ( bulk cargos / non- containerised goods .

Pay term
Example : net 30 / 30 days - can return back the material . Need a required date .

Tax / GST

Charge to account

Only receiving can receive the material . Then , they will send the material to IQA which stand for Inspection & Quality Assurance . When IQA have checking the material and prove it . They will send it to store for kick in data and then production planner will take over . When production received, the shipping process will occur to ensure the packaging.

Last day for the week 1 , I'm still try to explore my task using their system before I get any project . Today , my supervisor have given to me ESD shoes that I should wear in the factory .

I have review the shelf life control materials that print by supervisor . This is to define the procedures relating to proper handling and control of materials which have a limited life .

However , the material exactly not same the expired date . Example for die attach , expiry will be 6month to 1 year from date of manufacture . Range for epoxy storage is -40 celcius to -60 celcius . The frequency of monitoring will be at least one time per day .

Procedure for handling expired material :
- Store personnel shall segregate expired materials in an isolated area , for scrap purposes .
- Each time , if there is a need to use the expired material , the requestor shall issue a recertification format .

The maximum allowable number of rebuyoff for :
* Lead frame - maximum 6x rebuyoff
* Mold compound - maximum 2x rebuyoff. Mold compound that expires after 2nd extension shall be scrapped by production control .
* Epoxy maximum is 1x rebuyoff .

Shelf life would be extended for 6 months after each time rebuyoff for substrates and lead frames (non QFN/DFN only) for the first 4 times . After 24 months of extension , the extension period will be reduce to 3 months after each rebuyoff. For the other materials , shelf life extension is 3 months after each rebuyoff.
