Creating Production Orders from the PO or DO Workflow

Vendor users can manually create production orders from the purchase order (PO) and deployment order (DO) workflows. The Enable Production Order Creation policy must be enabled first. Once enabled, the Create Production Order action is available for POs and DOs in the Open state on the PO and DO detail pages and on the Search POs and Search DOs reports. This action is only available when a PO or DO is in the Open state.

Please note the following clarifications regarding this feature:

• The Enable Production Order Creation policy must be enabled on the selling organization (for POs) or the Ship From organization (for DOs), not for the owning or creation organization.

• There are no restrictions on the number of production orders that can be created from a single PO or DO.

• Production orders created in this way can still be canceled. The pre-existing Cancel Production Order is called internally when a user cancels an order, cancels an order line, or requests a schedule cancelation for the order.

• This feature only supports standard POs and is not intended to be used with other types of POs, such as AVL POs, VMI POs, Spot POs, Release POs, VMI POs, and Blanket POs.

Complete the following steps to create a production order from a PO or DO:

1. L og in to the ONE system.

2. Enable the Enable Production Order Creation policy for the selling organization (POs) or the Ship From organization (DOs). See the "Searching Policies by Policy Name" and "Editing Policies" sections in Online Help for information on locating and editing the policy.

   This workflow describes the process for POs, but the steps are the same for DOs.
