Work order statuses

A work order proceeds through various statuses as it moves through the production process. To move the work order along in the process, you must change its status. These are the work order status codes:

Status code	Description
Unreleased	The work order has been created through production scheduling or manually, but has not been released yet.
Released	Before work orders can be exploded, they must be released.
Exploded	Exploding a work order breaks it into its component parts.
In Production	Before being put into In Production status, work orders must be exploded. When in an In Production status, planned quantities cannot be changed. To have components, burdens, and byproducts appear on the work order, print and be available for feedback, you can add them with zero planned quantities. All components must be allocated for the work order to be placed in In Production status or a warning is displayed. The allocation check is configured in Inventory Control.
Canceled	The work order was deleted or deleted for rescheduling.
Completed	The finished goods are produced and you have updated the Inventory Control and Global Ledger solutions.
