Productions
A production (or production run) is a planned job: a scheduled realisation of a recipe on a particular machine, with a destination cell for the output.
What defines a production
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Recipe | What you're making |
| Machine (realisation on) | Which plant asset runs the job |
| Target cell | Where finished coffee is stored afterwards |
| Batch quantity | How many batches to produce |
| Batch size | Kilograms per batch |
| Customer | Optional link to a sales order |
| Note | Free text for the team |
Productions, batches, and lots
A production can consist of multiple batches. Each completed batch typically creates one new lot.
