Hi,

Production Order:- Can be used for Discrete manufacturing

Process Order:- Can be used for Process industries like Chemical, Food and Pharmaceuticals

instead of routings we can use Receipes here and also having PI sheets

Hi,

Production order is for discrete manufacturing and process order is for PP-PI(Process inudstry).

Please let us know what else you want to know.
