Business value
You get more done when processes are easy. We improved the usability in several areas within manufacturing. Now, you can access information faster. We added fields, actions, and FactBoxes to several pages. Confirmation dialogs help you avoid mistakes when you process production BOMs and routings, and when you print in bulk.
Feature details
The Component – Item FactBox on the Production Order Component page shows information about an item and its availability when you view or edit the list of components in a production order.
Change production order statuses in bulk
Use the Change Production Order Status page to change the status of multiple orders at the same time. You can now use this capability on list pages for the following types of orders:
- Simulated production orders
- Planned production orders
- Firm planned production orders
- Released production orders
Select one or more production orders, and select Change Status.
Note
A confirmation dialog with extra questions appears for each order. If there are multiple orders with partial output or consumption, confirm each one.
If the status of orders can't change, the system skips those orders. The Error Message page shows the skipped orders and the reasons.
Print the Production Order - Comp. and Routing report for selected orders.
Select one or more orders, and choose Production Order - Comp. and Routing to run the report. The Print and Preview actions show details for the selected orders.
You can run the report on the following pages:
- Planned Production Orders
- Firm Planned Production Orders
- Released Production Orders
Note
The report uses Marked records that you select. The report request page doesn't show these types of filters, so it looks like no filters are applied.
Print multiple production orders that you create from a planning worksheet
When you process lines in a planning worksheet, you can print more than one firm planned order.
Tip
- On the Report Selection - Production Order page, use the Prod. Order option to choose which report to print. The default report is 99000762 Prod. Order - Job Card.
- If your production orders don't have routing lines or you want a more compact report, switch to the 5500 Prod. Order Comp. and Routing report.

Edit in Excel on the Standard Cost Worksheet page
The Edit in Excel feature in Business Central is popular because it provides a fast way to enter data. You can now use the Edit in Excel action on the Standard Cost Worksheet page.
Edit routing link code in the production routing lines page
You might find that the original routing isn't feasible anymore and you want to adjust it. You can edit the Routing link code field so you can add new routing steps and make sure that components link to the routing steps.
A warning appears if you select the same routing link code for more than one routing line.
Default general business posting group for assembly and production orders
Set the general posting group for new production orders in the Default General Business Posting Group field on the Manufacturing Setup page. Make sure to update the entries on the General posting setup page. For assembly orders, set the posting group on the Assembly Setup page.
