How to create a production order

You can create a production order if you have a product that is made up of different parts. The production can be done before or after an order, depending on your workflow. If made beforehand the product will be visible in your product overview.

Creation of production order

1. Select "Inventory" in the top bar 
2. Click "Production" in the menu
3. Click "Create new" in the upper right corner
4. Enter the information for the production order in question
5. Choose which bill of materials, and the amount you want to produce. If your production includes multiple bills of material, you can add them by clicking on ''+ Add Bill of Materials'' underneath
6. If your production is connected to a specific customer or order, you can attach this information to the order under ''Optional info''. You can also assign an employee that is in charge of the production, and a specific layout
7. Click on "Create and show" - your order will now be shown in an overview and the status will be ''Not started - Not finished''
                                            
8. When you are ready to begin the production, click on ''Actions'' in the upper right corner and choose ''Start''. After this the status will change to ''Started - Not finished'' 
9. When the production is completed, you have to register it on the production order. Find the order in the production overview and click on the order number in the ''#'' column to open the production
10. There are three methods in which you can register the completion of your production. These all depend on what the production order is compiled of and your work flow:

       • Click on ''Register production'' to the right of the bill of materials
       • You now get the option to register how many of the bill of materials (products) are fully produced - if there are some parts of the order that aren't fully produced yet (ex. 5 out of 10 items) you can edit the ''Quantity'' here.
       • Next step is to choose which location the completed products show be registered to and the date of completion.
       • Click ''Register'' to finish
