Sales order to Production Order (MTO)

[former_member301027]

Dear Gurus,

at my client side, production order is created with reference to sales order as make to order scenario is in progress.

system have the traceability of production order and sales order, but production unit user have the authority to manual create a production order as well, with out reference to sales order.

is there any possibility to check out the traceability in sales, with the separate production order user create manually. Because after some time period user will get  aware that production produce more than the order and stock is laying in the warehouse.

this is very complicated scenario just because of lack of communication in b/w department.

looking for the gurus feedback.

regards,

Imran khan

This is more of user discipline and you have to educate the users.  Don't try to bring some unwanted controls in system which will affect the performance.  Moreover, if the production order is created with reference to sale order, then obviously, that production order would be having the sale order reference.  If it is blank, you can presume, production order is created manually.  Moreover, you should have posted this query in PP forum.

Hi Imran,

Give authorization to MD04 in both the departments so that they have visibility what's happening with demand and supplies. If you double click on excess order and go in display mode (give authorization for same) into production order you can see the same on administration screen the creation user, date and time. On the other you can create a query for the same but in that case still you will not be aware of actual demand and supply situation.

Logically if production unit user is not allowed to create production order then remove authorization for I can assume it could be bit out of scope.

Let us know if it resolved your issue.

Regards

Rahul
