TroubleshootingPeak Production

Why can't I release a work order?

Usually the bill of materials is missing: a work order can only be released once the product has a bill of materials. On release, Peak freezes the current version of the bill of materials in the order; later changes only apply to new orders. Progress (“Produced”, “Scrap”) can only be recorded on released orders.

  1. Under Production → Bills of materials, create the bill of materials for the product.
  2. Open the order and click “Release”.
  3. Then record “Produced” and “Scrap” with “Save progress” or “Report finished”.
  4. A draft can be deleted; a released order can only be cancelled.

Explains this message

  • Create the bill of materials first, then you can release the order.
  • Progress is recorded on released orders.
  • Only drafts can be deleted. Cancel the order instead.
  • This step doesn't fit the current state of the order.
