Using WIP on Work Orders
The following procedure provides instructions for using WIP on work orders.
To use WIP on a work order:
-
Go to Transactions > Manufacturing > Enter Work Orders.
-
Complete the fields, as required.
-
To use WIP rather than a standard assembly build on this work order, check the WIP box.
Note:You cannot clear the WIP box after a posting assembly transaction has been attributed to this work order.
-
Select a Location.
This field is required for WIP work orders.
-
Complete the necessary form fields. For more information, see Entering an Individual Work Order.
-
Click Save.
After you designate a work order as WIP, complete the build process using the following:
-
Work Order Issue – Issue components to track material consumption or log service against a work order.
For more information, see Entering Work Order Issues.
-
Work Order Completion – Identify the quantity completed and stocked.
For more information, see Entering Work Order Completions.
-
Work Order Close – Generate reconciliation entries to post variances that may occur during the manufacturing process.
For more information, see Entering Work Order Closes.
