What Is in a Production Order?
A production order includes product, recipe, planned quantity, machine, priority, dates, reservations and reference codes. Operators work from this controlled record rather than recreating planning data.
Production
Production orders, lot consumption, output, waste and quality
Production Order
The controlled record used on the shop floor
Lot Consumption
Operators select the actual material lots consumed. Quantity and lot references preserve the backward link from finished-product output to its inputs.
Completion and Quality
Actual output, waste and quality handoff
Actual Quantity and Waste
Completion records actual output, consumed quantity and waste separately from the plan. Authorized reversal remains in activity history with its reason.
Quality-control Flow
When production output requires control, it is sent to the quality queue. Approval determines whether the output lot becomes available for inventory or shipment.
Attention: Production output that is pending quality control or rejected must not be released for customer shipment.
