Off-site processing

After a work order is exploded and is assigned an In Production status, you can send the work order off-site to complete part or all of the production of the finished good. You assign a hold code to the work order that remains until off-site production is complete. After the work comes back, you can remove the hold code and continue processing the work order and record the off-site costs as burdens.

When the vendor completes off-site production, you remove the hold code from the work order. Hold codes are defined in Receivables. See the Receivables User Guide.
