Enter, Amend or View Works Order

Create and process Works Orders to record and manage your made items and complete them into stock.

Costs incurred in completion of a Works Order can include component material stock, labour and machine operation times, sub-contract operations, tool usage, overheads, any other additional costs.

You can amend order details at any time until it is Completed. You can always view full details of an order, even after it is Closed.

 

To enter a new Works Order

Open: Works Orders > Works Order List.

  • Select the New button above the list view.

From the menu:

Open: Cim200 Works Orders > Works Orders > Enter New Works Order

  • Enter the Works Order number.

If you are using automatic numbering, the number automatically generates when you save the works order.

If you are entering works order numbers, enter a number up to 30 characters.

  • Enter the Quantity to make. This defaults to the Default Build Quantity set on the built item’s Bill of Materials record.
  • Select the Unit of measure to make.  This defaults to the item’s stocking unit of measure in Stock Control.
  • Select the Route to use for operations on this order.  This will only appear if Multiple Routes is enabled in Works Order Settings.  If enabled, the Route defaults to the preferred route on the Bill of Materials.
  • Select if the Works Order is for Stock Item or Non-Stock Item.

If you are creating a Works Order for a Non-Stock Item, a blank Works Order is presented. You will define routing and Bill of Materials for one-off Works Order.

Note: Non-Stock Works Order cannot be traceable
