Production Orders do not control the assembly process itself, and nor do they update stock levels of the Input and Output Items or the stock valuation in the Nominal Ledger. These tasks belong to Productions. So, when a Production Order reaches the front of the queue for a Machine and it is time for work to begin, you should use this function to create a Production from it.When you select the function, a new record will be created in the Production register. It is opened in a new window, entitled 'Production: New'. This means that it has not yet been saved. After amendment if necessary, save the record by clicking the [Save] button in the Button Bar. Alternatively, if you no longer require the Production, click [Cancel]. If the Production Order Qty is greater than the Standard Batch quantity in the Recipe, you will need to create more than one Production from the Production Order. There is no control over how many Productions you can create from an individual Production Order. You will therefore need to monitor progress of the Production Order carefully. One tool you can use is the 'Production Order Status' function, also on the Operations menu of the Production Order. When the assembly process is complete (i.e. when there is a sufficient number of Productions for the Qty in the header of the Production Order, and these Productions are all Finished), mark the Production Order as Finished and save it. This will remove the Production Order from the queue, and will also prevent the creation of further Productions. If the function does not create a Production when expected, the probable reasons are:
