How do I add an new order?

You can add a new order to start or track production by order number or batch number. Creating a new order automatically closes any currently open order and starts the new one.

 

Before you start

  • Your company may track production by order number or batch number.
    If you are unsure which one to use, contact your supervisor or manager.

  • Orders can be updated at any time, but if an order is active, you cannot change its start time or shift.


 

Order behaviour in the system

  • Adding a new order automatically closes any open order.

  • Orders remain open until they are manually closed by a user.

  • If an order changes (manual edit, automation, or order split), the previous order closes automatically.

  • If an order is left open on a non-working day (for example, a weekend) and the entire shift only shows Machine not running with no production, the empty order is deleted automatically.

  • Planned quantity is optional and only sets a production target.

    • Useful for large orders or production spread across multiple shifts or days.

  • If you create a new order with the same order number and product, the system automatically includes what has already been produced.
