Production Tracking
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:
- the production tracking code, and
- the line ID from the production tracking table.
Examples:
- Manually created production item:
PROT100-354 - Item created from a document (e.g. Job):
JOB1200-354
These codes ensure each tracked item can be uniquely identified and traced back to its source.
