# Production Order

#### Production Order Management in Sequor MES

The module **Production Order** is the core of Sequor MES focused on **managing the orders that control the execution of production operations**.\
Through it, it is possible to create, plan, track, and close orders in an integrated way, ensuring full visibility of production progress.

#### Module objective

Allow the user to **plan and monitor the execution of production orders** with control over status, times, and quantities, promoting complete traceability of the manufacturing process.

Main features:

* Creation and management of production orders.
* Definition of materials, capacities, and cost centers.
* Control of planning, execution, and completion.
* Recording of produced quantities, scrap, and times.
* Status change in real time.

## 1. Access to the module

In the main menu, go to:\
**Production → Production Order**

## 2. Tabs of the Production Order Registration

When creating or editing an order, the system presents three main tabs that organize the information from planning to execution.

### 2.1. Tab **Planning Order**

In this tab, the **general planning and scheduling data of the order**.

| Field                           | Description                                                 |
| ------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Order Number**                | Sequential order code.                                      |
| **Order Description**           | Production identification.                                  |
| **Material**                    | Code and description of the material to be produced.        |
| **Capacity / Capacity Version** | Defines the production resource and its associated version. |

## 3. Order Status Control

After registration, orders can be **managed and updated directly from the main screen**, using the **status change** (cycle icon).

To update the status, select the desired order and click the **“Change Order Status”**.

Available options include:

| Status                            | Description                                           |
| --------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| **Create Order**                  | Registers the order creation in the system.           |
| **Dispatch Order**                | Sends the order for execution.                        |
| **Start Order**                   | Marks the start of production.                        |
| **Close Order**                   | Ends the execution of all operations.                 |
| **Release Order**                 | Authorizes the start according to the plan.           |
| **Finish Order**                  | Completes production, enabling entries and reports.   |
| **Cancel Order**                  | Cancels production while keeping the history.         |
| **Pause / Postpone / Reschedule** | Allows adjustments to deadline and priority.          |
| **Revert / Restart Order**        | Restores the previous status or restarts the process. |

In addition to status actions, it is possible to set **new rescheduling date** and enter **justification comments**.

> 💡 **Tip:** use rescheduling to adjust production in cases of corrective maintenance or resource unavailability.

## 4. Best practices

* Keep **descriptions and materials standardized** to facilitate traceability.
* Update the **order status in real time** to ensure accurate data in reports.
* Always **reschedule paused or postponed orders**, avoiding resource overlap.
* Use the **comment** to record operational justifications.
* Check whether all **operations have valid times and quantities** before completion.
