Control Point

On the Work Centers form, select this box to designate this work center as a control point. If you are using the Backflushing feature, you can use control points to capture cost during production instead of waiting until production is complete. When using a work center for repetitive manufacturing, you can record production only at those work centers you have defined as control points

For example, materials that were issued to a job can be recorded using a control point.

On a display form, this field indicates whether or not the associated work center is a control point.
