This field is used to record the information related to the BOM to be used in production.
Bill of Materials Code / Description: The code and description of the bill of materials pertaining to the production order. Defined bills of materials are listed, and the appropriate definition is selected.
Revision Code / Description: The revision code and description of the bill of materials.
Route Code / Description: The route code and description of the bill of materials.
Product Line Code / Description: If different finished products will be produced using the same bill of materials, this field indicates the valid product line code/description for the finished product to be produced.
Dates
The production start and end dates of the specified finished products are specified on the following fields:
- Target
- Planned
- Actual
The Target start and end dates are specified by the user.
The Planned start and end dates are calculated by the application according to Target dates, and transferred into the relevant fields. Actual dates can be recorded by the user.
Planning Method
The field used to specify the planning method. The default value for this field is specified using the Planning Method parameter of the Production Control Parameters option located in the Definitions menu of the Administration section of the LOGO application. The production process is inserted into the time schedule in accordance with the selected planning method.
Resource Usage: This field is used to indicate whether or not production utilization will be processed in planning operations.
Workstation Proposal
The field is used in order to determine the most appropriate workstation for the production order.
This field contains the following options:
- Priority
- Quickest Workstation
If Priority is selected, the existing operation's first workstation is considered when resource usage assignment is done for workstations. In case resource usage is not considered in production order, the resource assignment is done according to work order durations. (Fullness of the workstation is not considered in such case) However, when resource usage is considered and when the workstation to be used in related work order is full, the resource usage is done by determining the most appropriate time period. But, the workstations that do the same work are not considered in such cases. Thus, the resources are used in an effective way; when a resource is working with full capacity, the others stand empty.
Quickest Workstation selection: Instead of partition a production order, different production orders can be distributed to different workstations by considering maximum queue durations. It is a kind of a line balancing. Thus, capacity usage rates increase; costs are decreased to minimum level. Max. Queue Duration means acceptable waiting duration. Max. Queue Durations are defined in operation records.
Production Order Lines
Products to be produced using the production order, materials to be used in production and the information related to the workstations where the production will be performed are recorded on the Production Order Lines tab.
When the production order is generated and the Status is Not Started, the main BOM of the production order is opened using "Calculate" option located in the right mouse button menu of the production order window, and the production order lines are generated. Production order lines can also be directly recorded by the user.
When "Calculate" option is used, production lines are generated by the LOGO application using the BOM revision information specified on the General tab. Work orders and slips of the production order lines are also generated as a result of the calculate operation.
If the main bill of material used in the production order contains child Pseudo Semi Finished Product bills, the production order lines are generated starting from the main bill of materials. The quantities of all input and output materials in the bill of materials, and the operations and BOM revisions they are related to are processed when the production order lines are generated. Input and output lines that are not included in production in the BOM, and that do not meet the material condition are not processed in production line generation.
The quantities of all input and output materials in the bill of materials, and the work orders, operations and BOM revisions they are related to are displayed on the production order lines. The quantity of production lines is calculated with the unit specified on the BOM revision line. The values of parameters and constants specified in the quantity formula for related materials, and the functions used in the formula are processed for the calculation.
The Workstations where the operation will be performed is determined by checking Minimum Quantity, Maximum Quantity and Start Date in the operation requirement lines.
If it is determined that any of the materials used in the operation as input or output will affect the operation time, the minimum quantity and maximum quantity checks are performed according to the quantity of the material, and the workstation is determined accordingly. If more than one material is used for the same operation, the workstation of the operation is determined depending on the quantity total of all materials, without processing units.
The production order lines tab consists of two sections. The upper section of the page displays the operation and requirement information of the work orders generated in connection with the BOM information.
The fields and functions on the upper section of the Production Order Lines tab are:
Work Order No: The work order number generated in connection with the BOM specified on the production order lines generated by the LOGO application. If the production line is directly entered by the user, the work order number is assigned by the application while the production order is being recorded.
Work Order Status: Displays the work order status.
Operation Code / Operation Description: Once the production order lines are generated by the application using "Calculate" option, this field displays the operation code and description specified on the lines of the BOM used in the production order.
In the LOGO application, the Previous Work Order Connection option located in the right mouse button menu of the related production line is used to specify or modify the overlap rates of new or existing operations.
Workstation Code / Workstation Description: The most appropriate among the workstations specified on the requirement lines of the operation specified on the operation code field is transferred into the workstation code and workstation description fields located in the production order lines generated using "Calculate" option.
The appropriate workstation is determined by processing the minimum quantity, maximum quantity and start date recorded on the operation requirement lines. These fields can be modified if a different workstation will be applied to the production line. The workstations are listed by clicking on "..." icon, and the appropriate record is selected.
BOM Code / BOM Description: The code and description of the bill of materials pertaining to the operation in the production line.
Revision Code / Revision Description: The revision code and description of the bill of materials pertaining to the operation in the production line.

Waiting Duration: The waiting time of the operation in the production order line for the workstation selected on the operation requirement lines. The waiting time can be changed if necessary. The changes made to this field update the planned duration.
Control Time: The inspection time of the operation in the production order line for the workstation selected on the operation requirement lines. The inspection time can be changed if necessary. The changes made to this field update the planned duration.
Planned Duration: Indicates the production completion time. If it is determined that any of the materials used in the operation as input or output will affect the operation time, the minimum quantity and maximum quantity checks are performed according to the quantity of the material. If more than one material is determined to be affecting the operation duration for the same operation (or work order), the check is performed depending on the quantity of all materials, without processing units.
In the LOGO application, the planned duration changes automatically when the line quantity of the material is changed; however, the opposite does not apply. The production order should be released for the changes to planned durations to be reflected on the work orders.
Materials (Production Order Input / Output Lines)
The Materials section of the production order lines tab displays information regarding the input and output materials used in production and contained within the BOM of the production order. These lines can either be automatically generated by the LOGO application using "Calculate" option or directly entered by the user.

The lines on this section display the production orders to be completed first and the Purchase orders to be delivered in order to produce the product specified in the production order in requested quantities.
Planned Costs
The planned costs of the production and work orders are tracked on this tab. The overhead costs are recorded from the work order. This tab displays the Material Cost, Workstation Cost, Employment Cost and Overhead Share calculated by processing the totals of all work orders resulting from the production order in Local Currency and Reporting Currency.
Overhead groups are located under Overhead Share field. Overhead costs are viewed in detail on group basis by grouping the overheads.
In the LOGO application, the planned and actual costs are calculated on the Planned and Actual Cost Calculation windows accessed through the right mouse button menu of the production orders window by work orders (operations), including the scrap and usage items, workstation and labor costs.
Actual Costs
The tab used to track the actual costs, and to record the account codes to be used in G/L. The overhead costs are recorded from the work order.
This tab displays the Material Cost, Workstation Cost, Employment Cost and Overhead Share calculated by processing the totals of all work orders resulting from the production order in local currency and reporting currency. The Account Code and Overhead Pool information is also entered on this window.
In the LOGO application, the planned and actual costs are calculated on the Planned and Actual Cost Calculation windows accessed through the right mouse button menu of the production orders window by work orders (operations), including the scrap and usage items, workstation and labor costs.
Overhead groups are located under Overhead Share field. Overhead costs are viewed in detail on group basis by grouping the overheads.
RollUp Costs
Production Order RollUp cost information is tracked in local and reporting currency. RollUp costs are also tracked over production order.
Rollup cost is a method of production order cost calculation. While calculating, the other elements (labor, overheads etc.) incurring the material cost over the production order cost are separated. Thereby it is possible to track stock inventory value in terms of material cost, overheads and other costs separately. While calculating, overheads, labor and workstation costs are added to the overheads, labor and workstation costs of a child production order. Rollup cost can be calculated only after calculating the actual cost.
Resource Usage
Resource information (employees, employee groups and tools used) is tracked on the Resource Usage tab. The resources are automatically generated by the LOGO application when the production order is released. Users can enter resources or change information as well. The usage information of the work orders are displayed on the Resource Type, Resource Code and Resource Description, Work Order No, Quantity, Operation Code and Operation Description fields of the resource usage tab.
Once the production order is released, the records of the resources required for the work order of each operation are generated automatically. Resources used in all work orders can be tracked in batch using the Resource Usage tab.
The information on this tab changes as the resource usage information is updated for the work orders. Information about each resource is displayed on a separate line. These lines generated during the release operation can be deleted, or new resources can be added.
The release operation is not stopped if there is a problem in the defined resources for Employee and Tool requirements. However, resource usage records are not generated for problematic resources. The following problems may occur on records with Employee Resource Type:
- Changes in the plant information of the employee,
- Passive status of the employee or the tool,
- No shift assignments for the employee.
Multiple usage records are generated daily for resources complying with the conditions.
Resource usage records generated for Tools always comply with the daily work hours of the workstation. While the daily start and end hours are generated, the tools are assumed to be operational as long as the workstation is operating.
The following conditions should be considered when the start/end dates and the times of the daily resource usage plans are being generated:
a. The workdays of the workstation and the employees should be the same. In this case, the planned start and end times are determined, and a time schedule is generated. If the workdays are different, the resource usage record cannot be generated for that day.
b. If the employee is working on the Planned Start Date of the Work Order, the start date of the employee is the same with the planned start date and time of the work order. On other workdays, the start time is 00:00.
c. The end time of the employee varies depending on the relation between the daily work hours of the employee and the workstation:
If the daily work hours of the employee were longer than the work hours of the workstation, the employee would have completed his daily work once the daily working hours of the workstation are completed.
If the daily work hours of the employee were shorter than or equal to the work hours of the workstation, the employee would have completed his daily work once the daily working hours are completed.
If a group is selected to fulfill the labor requirements during time schedule generation, the employees within the group are selected by first considering the Priority information, and then checking whether or not the employee in question is previously added to the schedule for the operation. Each employee can be added to the schedule once only. This check is performed in each stage of labor schedule generation.
The following information is recorded in the Resource Usage tab:
Resource Type: Indicates the resource type to be used in the operation. This field contains the following options:
- Employee
- Tool
Resource Code / Resource Description: Displays the code and description of the resource used in the operation. The employee definitions or defined materials are listed by selecting Employee or Tool, and a selection is made.
