Default Menu Location¶

Reports >> Production >> Print Production Work Orders

You will also have to set up some Contact attributes.

Maintain >> System >> Rule Maintenance >> Contact Attributes

General Description¶

The Auto-Process check box on the Print Production Work Orders screen does two things:

1. If the correct attributes have been set up and applied to at least one person, the production work orders will be automatically emailed.

2. If one or more of the production work orders cannot be emailed, it will be printed directly to your default printer.

Current Email Capabilities¶

Production Work Orders are automatically emailed based upon two factors:

The Department on the Production Work Order:

The Production Plant on the Production Work Order:

If the Production Work Order is part of a Project, then the emailed PWOs will automatically be stored as a note in the Project.

The same Department-Plant PWO can be automatically emailed to multiple people.

Explanation of Contact Attributes¶

Click here for a screenshot.

There are three parts to the attribute name, separated by dashes: EMAILPWO-XX-YYYYYYYYYY

The first part, EMAILPWO, never changes. This tells the system that this is a Production Work Order Email attribute.

The second part, XX, is the Department Code. This can be found in the Rule Maintenance screen (Maintain >> System >> Rule Maintenance >> Departments).

The third part, YYYYYYYYYY, is the name of the Production Plant (warehouse). This can be found in the Warehouse screen (Maintain >> Item Control >> Warehouses).

The Group, Form Name, TreeView, and Description don't matter...they just affect how the attribute is displayed in the Contact screen.
