Split Prod. Order Line for Serial No. Production

BUSINESS VALUE / REQUIREMENT

In some companies it is required to have a very specific tracking of the component serial number that you use to produce a product that also must be tracked with a Serial No.

If you use one production order line in your production order you will not be able to precisely assign the corresponding component serial number to a certain product serial no.

Therefore, a feature was introduced that will help you to split one production order line into more when quantity to produce is greater that one.

While Splitting, Routing and Components will be taken into account

  1. Open the Item Card of the product you want to create a production order with
  2. Make sure your product has a Routing No.
