Closing Production Orders

If you close production orders, LN:

  • Calculates the actual end item unit cost.
  • Calculates the financial results of the production order and posts them to Financials.
  • Updates the history of the actual material and operation costs, the operation times, and the hours accounting.
  • Corrects surcharges based on actual costs.
  • Sends results to Warehousing if actual costing is used.

You can:

  • Calculate the financial results of the production order without actually closing the production order.
  • Print the calculated financial results of the production order without posting them to the general ledger.
  • Simulate the calculation and print the production results.
Note

If you choose RPT items only, the production orders for customized items (non STO) and non RPT items are not closed.

Only Completed production orders can be closed. You can close an operation in the Report Operations Completed (tisfc0130m000) session.

When a production order is closed, the production order status changes from Completed to Closed. If you want to post additional materials and hours, you must change the status of production orders from Closed to Completed. You can reset the status in the Reset Production Order Status (ticst0203m000) session.

Production order groups

If you are using order groups, you can close all the production orders in an order group at once. For production orders in an JSC order group, select the SFC Order Group check box and enter the order group.
