Why Use This Procedure?
This procedure is used to final report manufacturing orders. After a manufacturing order has been reported as finished (completely reported with time used and consumed material), it will be given status 4 (Finished. However, the order remains in the order register for supervision, etc. This means that the order register is constantly filled with completely reported orders.
One reason to perform final reporting is to be able to move orders from the order register to a historical register. These orders will then be set to status 9 (Historical) After this you cannot perform any reporting on these orders. The final reporting and moving of order can be made either on a continuous basis, or at certain intervals to make sure that the order register does not grow too big.
Another and a more important reason to perform final reporting is to make sure that the WIP list is correct (when manufacturing is made directly against customer orders). When a customer order is delivery reported, an invoice basis is generated that later will become an income. At the same time the finished manufacturing orders that belong to the customer order shall be final reported and thereby be set to status 6 (Delivered). Otherwise the parts in these manufacturing orders will remain as WIP value, which will create an income from the customer order. This applies when the WIP calculation is made for the manufacturing order status Started, not delivered.
Under the Create tab you select the orders that will be loaded from the order register You can select your list by Order number, Part number, Project, Registration date, Customer code, Finish period - planned or actual and Administrator.
What Does This Procedure Do?
Normally you do not use this procedure to make printouts, but you can print a list of all orders with status 4-6.
What Update Options Exist for this Procedure?
All orders reported as finished can here be given either Status 6 (Delivered) to indicate that they have been delivered, or Status 9 (Historical) so that they can be moved to a historical register.
Orders that are moved to the historical registers are still available to be used as a basis to calculate post-calculations in the future, etc. The historical registers should be initiated by initiating a database for historical registers in the Historical Registers procedure in the Global Settings module. Orders with status 9 can then be moved to the historical registers using the Purging Procedures in the Global Settings module.
You can also choose to deselect individual orders in the list that should not get their status updated. The status for the selected orders in the list is updated when you save the list. Also see the Printout Samples.
