Update Dates in a Production Order

By using the REST API, you can update dates in a production order and its operations in MYOB Acumatica. You can view the details of the updated production order on the Production Order Details (AM209000) form.

System Preparation

Before you test the code in the following section, you need to do the following:

  1. Deploy a new MYOB Acumatica instance with the SalesDemo dataset. For details on deploying an instance, see Instance Deployment: To Deploy an Instance with Demo Data.
  2. On the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form, make sure that the Manufacturing and Advanced Planning and Scheduling features are enabled.
  3. If you are using Postman as the client application for testing, in the IntegrationDevelopmentGuide.postman_collection.json collection, make sure that the collection’s variables have the proper values. This collection is located in the IntegrationDevelopment\Help folder of the Help-and-Training-Examples repository on GitHub.
  4. To sign in to the instance in the client application, use the tenant name (which you specified when you created the instance) and the PRODWHOLE branch.

Request

You can use the following request example to update dates in the AM000037 production order through the REST API. This production order has the On Hold status. In the request, you do the following:

  • Change the scheduling method to User Dates
  • Change the start and end dates of the production order and the start and end dates of two operations of the production order
  • To identify the operations that should be updated, use the id field of the operation detail entities
Tip: In the request example below, <MYOB Acumatica instance URL> is the URL of the MYOB Acumatica instance (such as https://my.acumatica.com/MyInstance). You can omit the instance name in the URL (that is, you can use https://my.acumatica.com) if the instance is installed in the root of the website.

Usage Notes

By using this request, you can modify dates in a production order that has the On Hold status. You need to change the scheduling method of the production order to User Dates in the request, if the production order does not already have this scheduling method.

You can modify dates in production orders with the On Hold, Planned, Released, or In Process statuses by using the ProductionOrderDatesProcess entity, as described in Update Dates in Production Orders.
