Field	Description
Manufacturing Order	Enter a Manufacturing Order up to 10 characters (the first character of the Manufacturing Order cannot be blank) or leave clear if one of the auto-numbering methods is used. You select the numbering method for manufacturing orders in the MO Numbering Method group box on the Configure Production Control Settings screen. Orders can be manually numbered or system-generated by warehouse or inventory project.
Type	Use this drop-down list to select the type of MO being created. The system-defined types are: Customer Repair Rework Standard (system default) MRO Discrepancy Rework
Status	Select the current status of the MO. Options are Planned, Firm Planned, Released, In Shop, Closed, and Completed. You cannot modify the status of the MO to Planned, Firm Planned, or Released if there have been material issues or units completed on the MO, or if there has been timesheet activity against it. You cannot reopen a completed MO. When a manufacturing order that is not a customer repair MO type is Released and you selected the Relieve Manufacturing Orders check box on the Configure Back Order Processing Settings screen, the system checks for outstanding approved reservations for the part, inventory abbreviation, and warehouse ID; the system performs the check using the Need date for the MO and Need Date Filter (Standard Calendar Days) on the Configure Back Order Processing Settings screen. The system displays a warning message indicating the reservations that may be due or past due for this MO. Once the Build Part has been relieved to an inventory abbreviation and the Status is changed to Completed on the Enter Manufacturing Order Reliefs screen, the MO is assigned with a Relief ID upon saving the record. The Status for this MO displays as Completed where applicable throughout Costpoint, and the Completed Quantity for this MO displays based on the Relief Quantity and Open Quantity on the Enter Manufacturing Order Reliefs screen. You cannot modify the MO Status unless you delete the entire record. You cannot add additional requirement lines in the Requirements subtask once the MO Status is Closed or Completed.
Retain Serial/Lot Information for Closed MO	Select this check box before saving the MO if unused pre-assigned serial/lot information must be retained after closing this manufacturing order. This check box is active only if the MO status is set to Closed, and before Save.
