Production pools

Completed

Setting up production pools provides a way for you to group production orders into various useful categories. Production pools can categorize production orders into groups that share common characteristics, and when you create a production order, you can assign it to a specific production pool.

Example

You can create production pools for orders that are top priority or that have a particular production status. You can also assign a production pool to a default posting profile to define the method to use for posting transactions for orders in the pool.

Example scenarios where you can use production pools to group production orders include:

  • Orders that are ready to be produced

  • Subcontracted orders that are missing deliveries

  • Regular productions

  • Orders that are missing materials

  • Orders that are delayed because of machine failure

  • Orders that are ready for release, start, or scheduling
