Processing a Works Order

Transactions > Manufacturing > Works Order Entry

Once a Works Order is created, it must be processed to consume the component items and create the output item.

Unlike Bills of Materials, that are either processed or not processed, Works Orders allow you to specify the production status of the order.

To set the production status of a Works Order:

  1. Select Works Order Entry from the Transactions > Manufacturing menu.

  2. Double-click on the Works Order whose status you want to change.

  3. On the Details tab, set a value for the Status property. Choose from:

    • Uncommitted

    • Committed

    • In Production

    • Completed

Works Orders do not generate stock movement transactions until they are fully processed, i.e. Completed.

To process a Works Order:

  1. Select Works Order Entry from the Transactions > Manufacturing menu.

  2. Double-click on the Works Order whose status you want to change.

  3. Select the Components tab.

  4. Click the Process button on the Components tab toolbar. Click Yes to confirm.

This posts the Works Order to the Stock Ledger. The posting consists of negative stock movements to component items and a positive stock movement to the output item.

The production status of the Works Order is automatically set to "Completed".
