Editing a Work Order

You can update details of a work order in response to changes in your production process as well as find information about a work order.

To learn information about a Work Order, go to Transactions > Manufacturing > Enter Work Orders > List. Click Edit next to a work order.

If there are related Assembly Unbuilds, an Unbuilt field is displayed. It shows the total quantity unbuilt from all Assembly Unbuilds created from all Assembly Builds related to this Work Order.

The Related Records subtab lists all related Assembly Build and Unbuild transactions, along with Built and Unbuilt quantities.

You can add and edit components on any work order which is in Planned, In Process or Released state. You can also remove components from a Work Order if they haven't already been used in the build. In such cases, amend the associated Work Order Issue or Work Order Completion, before attempting to remove the item from the work order. The quantity of components cannot be changed to a number less than the quantity used in a build.

To edit individual work orders:

1. Go to Transactions > Manufacturing > Enter Work Orders > List.

2. Beside a work order that is in In Process or Released status, click Edit.

3. In the Item subtab, select the item you want to edit.

   • Click Cancel to delete any changes you made and return to the previous item configuration.

   • To reuse the existing item details to create a new item, click Make Copy.

   • Click Insert to add another item.

   • Click Remove to delete the item information.

4. Click Save.

Note:

If you use Advanced Manufacturing, you can track updates to your work order. For more information, see Scheduling Work Orders.
