Production Order
Production order detail: the product made, material components needed with their COGS, and work operations with labour cost and duration. The report for costing a production order.
Questions It Answers
- What are the material and labour costs of production order X?
- Which components are needed to produce this product?
- How long do the work operations of an order take in total?
Filters

How To Read It
One block per production order (number, product, quantity ordered, order/deadline/expected dates, division, memo), then two tables:
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Production Components: Code, Name, Quantity, Unit, Cost of Goods Sold, Subtotal | Materials required per the BOM when the order was made; Subtotal = quantity x component COGS. |
| Production Work Orders: Production Operation, Quantity, Unit, Labour Cost, Duration, Unit | Work steps from the Production Operation master with labour cost and duration per unit. |
| Invoice Count | How many sales orders relate to this order. |
Why The Numbers May Differ
- Components and operations are copied from the BOM when the order is created - changing the BOM later does not change existing orders.
- Component COGS is the COGS at order time, not when material is actually issued.
- This report does not filter on approval status.
Purchase Price Permission
Columns derived from COGS or purchase prices - COGS, inventory value, purchase prices and totals, and profit - appear only for roles that have the Show Purchase Price History permission in User Roles. For other roles those columns are absent from the screen, prints, and exports, and the server does not send the figures at all - they are not merely hidden by the layout.
- A missing column does not mean the data is empty. If the user should see it, turn the permission on for their role and ask them to log in again so the report layout follows.
- Custom-built reports are not protected automatically; a copy made with Duplicate in Report Designer keeps the settings of the original.
