Select Production Orders

Form ID: (AM300010)

This form is invoked from the Materials (AM300000) form and is not a menu item. The steps you perform on this form are part of the process that does not do any updating of the production order or inventory but is a tool to facilitate the creation of the actual material issues. If you are using allocations for production materials you can also use the Unreleased Material Allocations (AM305500) form to create a materials batch particularly when you have created purchase orders from the Critical Materials (AM401000) form.

It will create a list of open material requirements for production orders in a Released, In Process, or Closed status with a remaining quantity to produce.

By entering in a different Quantity to Produce in the Wizard, it will recalculate the necessary components based on making a quantity that is less than what the production order requires. This allows you to release only the materials you need for the quantity currently being produced.
