How do I create a manufacturing order?

Requirements

• Create a bill of materials (BOM) for the product to be manufactured with the required components and verify it.

Steps

1. Open “Manufacturing Order” from the menu.
2. Create a new manufacturing order.
3. In the field Product, enter part of the name or number of the product to be manufactured and click on the matching result in the drop-down list.
4. The BOM & Formula Version linked to the manufacturing product, and thus the respective bill of materials, is automatically applied.
5. In the field Resource, pick the designated production facility/line.
6. In the field Workflow, set the required manufacturing work steps.
7. Enter the Quantity of the product to be manufactured.
8. Pick the UOM of the product to be manufactured.

   Note: If the unit of measurement selected here differs from that of the manufacturing product, a UOM conversion must be defined.

9. Pick the Target Document Type Produktionsauftrag (Manufacturing Order).
10. In the field Date Promised, set the date and time of product completion.
11. Pick a Warehouse where the product will be received after manufacturing.
12. Complete the manufacturing order.

    Note: Now the action “Issue/Receipt” becomes available in the menu and the manufacturing order receives the Planning status Planned (in the list view).

Next Steps

• Start manufacturing the product.
