Production Tracking Configuration

Production Tracking

Production Tracking monitors items as they move through the manufacturing process, providing visibility at each stage from preparation to completion. It allows you to see the current status of an item, track its progress through production, and confirm when it has been fully completed. This helps ensure accuracy, accountability, and timely delivery throughout the production workflow.

Production tracking has three main statuses: Ready, Tracking, and Complete.

If the item was created from a document such as an Invoice, Job, or Sales Order, you will be able to track it between documents. Items created independently will not have tracking available.

Items are tracked on the document lines

Reference Values

Reference Values and Production Tracking

System Configuration> Administration> Reference Values

Reference Values are only used when new items are created or imported manually and are not created from a document that already has a document number.

Documents such as Sales Orders and Jobs already have document numbers, so reference values are not used for items created from these documents.

For Invoices in Preparation and manually created Job item tracking, the Production Tracking number is used instead.

Unique tracking codes are generated using:

Examples:

These codes ensure each tracked item can be uniquely identified and traced back to its source.
