Order Planning
The Order Planning is the main feature of Sequor MTC, as it is responsible for creating, editing, executing and managing Work Orders.
Work Order is a manufacturing document, which is responsible for specifying the conditions to execute something.
Work orders are classified into:- Service order (used in *Maintenance* or *Job Management* process)
- Production order (used in the *Manufacturing* process)
- Inspection Order (used in the *Quality* process)
- Transfer order (used in the *Logistics* process)
Different types of order have particular behaviors, but the structure is always the same. but why ??? This is because these business areas are naturally similar. So much so: Maintenance, Manufacturing, quality and logistics are the four pillars of ISA 95 (International Standard provided by the International Society of Automation).Work orders are made up of blocks of information:- What to do - How to do - what to consume - what to expect For more conceptual explanations: https://www.isa.org/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_order

Wow cool! I see that I can insert resources within an operation, but I can insert them within the order, how do I ??
What is the difference between inserting resources in order and in operation ???
Example:
- The team will spend two bags of screws, it makes no sense to control how much will be spent on each operation. Just know the consumption of the order.
- The team will spend a new bomb (specific material) in a specific operation. It is important to know which operation.
It is important to know that all feature features will be summed in order, plus materials entered in order.
Example:
Inserted in operation A: 2 screw bags
Inserted in operation B: 1 screw bag
Inserted in order: 1 screw bag
Order Summary: 4 Screw Bags
