Archiving production orders
Closed production orders can be archived for future reference. This means that the production order is moved to another company number, which serves as archive. The order status changes to Archived.
General data and costing history data can also be archived. General data, for example work center data, does not pertain to a particular production order. Costing history data is about material usage, spent hours, and so on.
The archive company must be defined in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0500m000) session in Common.
Data can be archived by means of the following session:
- Archive/Delete Production Orders (ticst0250m000)
You must change to the company number of the archive company to print or display archived information.
When the main item of the production order is a standard item then you can use the Archive/Delete Production Orders (ticst0250m000) session to delete the records in the table Production Order Operations (tisfc010).
When the main item of the production order is a customized item then you can use the Archive/Delete Projects (tipcs2260m000) session to archive the production order and as a result the records in the table Production Order Operations (tisfc010) are deleted from the original company.
