Entering Work Order Issues

When you use the Manufacturing Work In Process (WIP) feature, you must issue components to start work order processing. When you issue components, you are logging only the material consumption, not any work on the assembly process.

The work order issue indicates the material is consumed against the work. Issue assembly member components to track material consumption or log service against a work order.

After components are issued, the material value is recorded in the assigned WIP account. You can issue components for many work orders at one time.

If you use the Multiple Units of Measure feature, the issued component quantity is recorded in base units.
