Production Planning

This page describes the Production Planning report in the Production module.

---

The Production Planning report lists Production Orders whose Status is "Created". It therefore lists the Production Orders that have not yet been placed in a queue for a Machine.

For each Production Order, the report shows the Production Order Number, the Recipe, the Machine, the Name, the Quantity (from the Production Order header) and the Planned Date (the Should Start date).

When printed to screen, the Production Planning report has the Standard ERP Drill-down feature. Click (Windows/macOS) or tap (iOS/Android) on any Production Order Number to open an individual Production Order record.

If you enter a number of Classifications separated by plus signs (+), Production Orders with Output Items featuring at least one of the Classifications listed will be included. If you enter a Classification preceded by an exclamation mark (!),Production Orders with Output Items featuring any Classification except the one listed will be included.
