Plan work orders and track staged production

Step by step

1. Open Work Orders and create a planned job only when due dates or progress tracking are needed.
2. Choose product, planned quantity and available planning details. A planning record alone does not post finished stock.
3. Review the order detail and use its offered next production action, checking material and location requirements.
4. For staged production, review issued materials, actual consumption, returns and output before confirming a stage.
5. Compare planned, actual and remaining output. Use permitted cancellation or correction controls after checking whether output has already posted.
