Manufacturing Operation Tasks

After you save a WIP work order that has a designated routing, manufacturing operation tasks are created based on the routing.

Each of these tasks is a step that must be done for the assembly process to finish. After work for the task has been done, manufacturing operators can log progress against each task on a work order completion form.

To view a list of operation tasks:

Go to Transactions > Manufacturing > Enter Work Orders > List.
Click View next to the work order.
Click the Operations subtab.

The following links are displayed in the Work Order Operations table:
- Edit – opens the editable Manufacturing Operation Task popup window.
- Operation Sequence – opens the viewable Manufacturing Operation Task popup window.
- Operation Name – opens the viewable Manufacturing Operation Task popup window.
- Manufacturing Work Center – opens the viewable Static Employee Group popup window.
- Predecessor – opens the viewable Manufacturing Operation Task popup window.

Note:

You can also modify tasks from the work order. Go to Transactions > Manufacturing > Enter Work Orders > List. Click Edit next to the work order to be edited. Then click the Operations subtab to view a list of operation tasks.
