In manufacturing, accuracy in production records is crucial for maintaining correct inventory levels and cost calculations. However, mistakes can happen even after a production order is marked as Finished. Missing consumption entries or incorrect item tracking can lead to discrepancies in inventory and financial records. To address such issues, Business Central allows you to reopen finished production orders, enabling necessary corrections and ensuring accurate data.
Reopening a
finished production order provides flexibility and control over production
processes. However, to maintain data integrity, certain restrictions apply:
- You can reopen finished
production orders only one time.
- You can reopen finished
production orders if they don't have output, and cost WIP is written off
to your inventory adjustment account.
