| # Production Order (tisfc0101m100) Use this session to view and maintain a production order. You can carry out a number of tasks in this session that relate to the material side and to the operations side of a production order. This session is composed of the following session: Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) Inventory by Production Order (tisfc0516m000) Performance aspects The settings in this session could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Production order without operations and Archive and delete in Shop Floor Control. Related topics Avoiding shortages on production orders Using order documents Rework orders Production order splits - overview Production Order An order to produce a specified quantity of an item on a specified delivery date. You can define a default order series in the Production Order Series for Production Orders field in the Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0500m000). Related topics Production orders - functional overview Production Order Status The order status of the production order. Allowed values Order Status Related topics Changing order status Production orders - functional overview Contents of order documents Reporting as completed Archiving production orders Integrations of SFC with warehousing Operation status values Item The item that is produced by the production order. The item must have been defined in the Items - Production (tiipd0101m000) session, and costing data must have been defined for the item in the Items - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session. The item must be one of the following types: Manufactured Purchased Generic The item can be standard or customized. Order Rework Order If this check box is selected, the production order is a rework order. Related topics Rework orders Contains Customer Furnished Material If this check box is selected, lower levels of the BOM contain customer furnished material Revision The revision of the item. Default value When you maintain a production order, the current revision is linked to it by default. If you link a revision to a production order, the effective date of the order is changed to the effective date of the revision. Use the Retrieve Revision of Engineering Item button to determine the revision based on the effective date of the production order. Related topics Engineering data management summary Quantity Ordered The order quantity to be produced. The estimates of materials and hours are based on this quantity. If no routing or date has been entered yet, the calendar is based on the default routing and 100% utilization. If you are using production order distribution when you alter the value of the current field, the value of the Quantity Ordered field in the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session for each of the effectivity units will be altered so that their total is the same as the value of the current field, and the quantity is evenly distributed between each of the effectivity units. When a distribution is present the quantity ordered is controlled by the sum of the quantity ordered for the distribution lines. Related topics Order quantity dependent routings Overview of unit effectivity Specify material to be issued Quantity Ordered The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter. The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock. Warehouse The warehouse where the products are stored. A planned inventory transaction for the produced item is created in this warehouse. Routing The routing for the production of the manufactured item. If no routing is entered, there are no estimated production costs defined for the production order. Default value The default routing is based on the Default Routing field in the Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000) session unless order quantity dependent routings are used. Related topics Standard routing Order quantity dependent routings Selection of routing to calculate costs Product Variant A unique configuration of a configurable item. The variant results from the configuration process and includes information such as feature options, components, and operations. Example Configurable item: electric drill Options: 3 power sources (batteries, 12 V or 220 V) 2 colors (blue, gray). A total of 6 product variants can be produced with these options. Note This field is only accessible when a rework order for the manufactured assembly item is created. Specification If this check box is selected, a specification is present for the material. From the appropriate menu, click Specification to start the Specification (tcibd4120m000) session. In this session you can view the applicable specifications.

If the Planning Method field is Backward, the production start date is planned backward based on the Planned Delivery field. You can only alter this field for: Manually-entered orders Orders transferred from the Warehousing package. Production Start The date and time on which the order is planned to be taken into production. The Production Start field is filled during production order creation. If the production planning changes, this date can be automatically updated. The start date of the order can be copied from the planned orders generated in the modules: Warehouse Orders Inventory Planning Order Planning Forward planning If the planning method field has the value Forward, the production start date can be used to calculate the delivery date. Backward planning If the planning method field has the value Backward, the production start date can be derived from the delivery date and the order lead time of the item. The production start date is then calculated as follows: Production start date = delivery date - order lead time of item This formula is used in the following situations: When you manually enter a production order When you click the Plan button to recalculate the production start date When a production order for an item of type Manufactured has no routing and is transferred to the Shop Floor Control module. Note The calendar that is used for the production order depends on the Used Calendar Type field in the Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000) session. If the Used Calendar Type field is Company, the company calendar (defined in the Companies (tcemm1170m000) details session) is used. If the Used Calendar Type field is Work Center, the calendar of the work center's department (defined in the Departments (tcmcs0565m000) details session) is used. If you selected Work Center in the Used Calendar Type field, but no work center calendar is available, the calendar of the department's enterprise unit is used. If you selected Work Center in the Used Calendar Type field, but neither a work center calendar nor an enterprise unit calendar is available, the calendar of the department's company (defined in the Companies (tcemm1170m000) details session) is used. You can manually modify the calculated start date. Requested Delivery The date that the customer has requested for the production order. If the planning method is Forward, the Requested Delivery Date equals the Planned Delivery Date of the moment the production order is generated. If the planning method is Backward, the Requested Delivery Date is the starting point for planning. Planned Delivery The delivery date and time of the production order. Allowed values If the manufactured item is an RPT item a schedule period must have been defined for the delivery date. Schedule periods can be defined in the Calendars and Periods module and must be linked to a schedule in the Repetitive Manufacturing module. The delivery date of the order is copied from the planned orders generated in the modules: Inventory Planning Order Planning Forward planning If the planning method field has the value Forward, the delivery date can be derived from the start date and the order lead time of the item. The delivery date is then calculated as follows: Production start date = delivery date + order lead time of item This formula is used in the following situations: When you manually enter a production order When you click the Plan button to recalculate the production start date When a production order for an item of type Manufactured has no routing and is transferred to the Shop Floor Control module. Note The calendar that is used for the production order depends on the Used Calendar Type field in the Routing Parameters (tirou0100m000) session. If the Used Calendar Type field is Company, the company calendar (defined in the Companies (tcemm1170m000) details session) is used. If the Used Calendar Type field is Work Center, the calendar of the work center's department (defined in the Departments (tcmcs0565m000) details session) is used. If you selected Work Center in the Used Calendar Type field, but no work center calendar is available, the calendar of the department's enterprise unit is used. If you selected Work Center in the Used Calendar Type field, but neither a work center calendar nor an enterprise unit calendar is available, the calendar of the department's company (defined in the Companies (tcemm1170m000) details session) is used. Backward planning If the planning method field has the value Backward, the delivery date can be used to calculate the production start date. You can manually modify the calculated delivery date. Confirmed Delivery The production delivery date of the order confirmed to the customer by, for example, the shop floor planner. You can manually alter this date, until the production order is completed. Related topics To determine on order dates Queue time compression Picture Picture The item's picture.

Allowed values Distribution Type Estimated Costs Frozen If this check box is selected, the estimated end item unit costs have been frozen, which means they can no longer be modified. The moment the estimated end item unit costs are frozen depends on the Moment Freezing Estimates field. Related topics Calculate estimated end item unit-costs of a production order Financial transactions by Work Center If this check box is selected, you can view the production results by work center. The material costs and the hours costs are posted to the work center to which these costs apply. If this check box is cleared, you can view the production results by production order. The surcharges, as well as the material costs and the hours costs, are posted to the production order's calculation office. Note The calculation office currency is also used for unlinked materials, that is, if a production order has no operations and no work centers, but only materials. Currencies When you calculate the estimated costs, and a Dependent currency system is used, the Financial Transactions by Work Center check box also determines the currency that is used: If the check box is selected (production results by work center), the local currency of the costing work center for which the costs are calculated is used. If the check box is cleared (production results by production order), the currency of the calculation office is used. Estimated end item unit costs The calculation of the estimated end item unit costs depends on the Financial Transactions by Work Center check box and the cost view, that is, whether the costs are work-center-based or item-based:
Financial transactions by work center | Work center based costs | Item based costs
--- | --- | ---
No | 1 | 2
Yes | 3 | 4
1: The total end item unit costs are posted for each work center by detailed cost component. The only work center available is the calculation office. The costs are expressed in the calculation office's currency. 2: The total end item unit costs are posted for the calculation office by the item's effective cost component structure. The costs are expressed in the calculation office's currency. 3: The total end item unit costs are posted for a costing work center or a calculation office by detailed cost component. The costs on a work center include operation costs and material costs. The costs on the calculation office include (added) end item surcharges and the costs for unlinked materials. The costs are expressed in the local currency of the costing work center. 4: The total end item unit costs are posted for the calculation office by the item's effective cost component structure. The costs are expressed in the calculation office's currency. Note You can view the end item unit costs, work center-based as well as item-based, in the End Item Unit Costs (ticst0510m000) session. WIP transfers If the Financial Transactions by Work Center check box is cleared, WIP transfers are not calculated. Because the production results are viewed by production order, the costs are posted on the production order's calculation office, and no costs are posted on the work centers. Consequently, there is no need to calculate WIP transfers between different work centers. Calculating efficiency/price variances If a production order is closed, the Financial Transactions by Work Center check box determines on which level efficiency variances and price variances are calculated. The posting, however, depends on the posting methods that are defined in the following fields: Posting Method Efficiency Variances Posting Method Price Variances Posting Method Efficiency Variances Posting Method Price Variances Performance aspects The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth.

Valuation methods are defined in Warehousing. The actual valuation methods are: Mov. Aver. Unit Cost (MAUC) First In First Out (FIFO) Last In First Out (LIFO) Lot Price (Lot) If you use actual costing, in principle no variances exist. Only additional calculation-office variances can occur. Additional calculation-office variances are variances that cannot be attributed to prices or efficiency. For example, if you start producing smaller orders than the economic lot size, your setup costs increase. The standard cost price is based on the economic order size, so the rise of the setup costs can create an additional calculation-office variance. If this check box is cleared, fixed transfer price (FTP) is used as valuation method. Performance aspects The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth.
