Purchasing components for production

Production control > Inquiries and reports > Purchasing components for production

In a make to order scenario, it is valuable for the account manager for the customer, or the supply chain manager to have a clear status overview of all components and parts that are needed for the production.

This form displays concise information on the project, customer delivery name, order number and confirmed ship dates, together with all parts that are purchased directly for the related production order and the sub production orders.

Green symbols are OK, orange symbols require attention and red symbols are a call to action.
