A production order generally defines which material is to be produced, in which quantity, at which time, and in which way.
In our business example, production orders are used to initiate and control the production of the bicycles in our bicycle company. The individual production orders define the following information:
- Which types of bicycles are to be produced?
- Which quantities are to be produced?
- At which production time?
- Which material components are required?
- Which operations are to be carried out at which work centers?
