		  origin, order, order line, order line sequence, receipt, and receipt line, one

			 value 2. For example, if a production order is closed with a price variance and
			 an efficiency variance, ERP Enterprise generates two records, with sequence 1 and
			 2. If the production order is opened again, ERP Enterprise generates two new
			 records, with sequence 3 and 4.</Paragraph>
