Closing production period
Production period closure is a feature that allows you to close your production for a desired time period, e.g. a month, a quarter, a year or any other custom period. The closure will close those work orders that are not finished, i.e. change their status to ‘Finished’. At the same time, it will open new work orders with the quantity that is still open – not processed
