Changing order status

The order status can be influenced by certain sessions. If the ususal procedure is followed, the order status ranges from Created to Closed. The main sessions you use to change the status of a production order in the usual procedure are:

  • Print Production Order Documents (tisfc0408m000).
  • Release Production Orders (tisfc0204m000).
  • Report Orders Completed (tisfc0520m000).
  • Close Production Orders (ticst0201m000). This procedure is described in detail in the Production order status topic.

The following sessions allow you to make other changes to the order status:

  • Reprocess Production Orders (tisfc1203m000) You can use the Reprocess Production Orders (tisfc1203m000) session if the order status is Created or Printed. This session changes the order status to Created. It also undoes all manual changes that were applied to the production order. Changes in the bill of material (BOM) or in the routing are incorporated in the reprocessed production order.
  • Reset Production Order Status (ticst0203m000) The Reset Production Order Status (ticst0203m000) session resets the production order status from Closed to Completed. After this, materials and hours can be booked again for the production order.
Note

If you have removed a production order's financial transactions, you can no longer reset the order.

  • Cancel Production Orders (tisfc0202m000) You can use the Cancel Production Orders (tisfc0202m000) session if the order status is Released or Active, provided no work has been performed on the production order. This session changes the order status to Completed. As soon as any issued materials have been returned to inventory, the production order is deleted.
Note

If you want to cancel a production order which has not yet been released, you can simply delete the order. If work on a production order has already started, the production order cannot be canceled or deleted.

  • Archive/Delete Production Orders (ticst0250m000) You can use the Archive/Delete Production Orders (ticst0250m000) session if the order status is Closed. This session changes the order status to Archived and moves the production order to an archive company, which is no longer visible in the operational environment.
