Generating production sheets

After all jobs are turned in for the day, production sheets can be printed. This report tells the production staff what service items are needed and how many units to produce.

  1. Set parameters

    1. Production > Production Sheets
    2. In the Search By pane, no specific filter is required, but you must use at least one of the search filters:
      • Job No.

        Enter the job number.

      • Turned In Date

        Enter the date the job was turned in, or click calendar button to look up date in the Date Navigator.

      • Rush Type

        Default is ALL. Click lookup button to restrict search to service items with a specific turnaround time (see Lookup panel). Options are set in Rush Type Master.

      • Business Units

        Profit centers or parts of your business you track separately. Default is ALL. Click lookup button to restrict search to jobs tied to specific BUs (see Lookup panel). BUs are set in Business Units.

      • Show Produced Items

        Defaults to No. If you want a report that shows both completed service items and work still to be completed, click to select Yes.

  2. View results

    Click search button. RB9 lists all of the jobs (along with their service items) that meet the specified search condition(s) as a report.

  3. Export/print results

    Export the report to save it and/or edit it in another application, or print it. See Printing invoices, statements & reports.

TIP: Start tracking production & storage

Use the Production Sheet as a guide for service item production to track in RB9’s Tracking module (RB9 only). Tracking is independent of other modules, but if service items pass through multiple hands as they move through your production workflow, Tracking can ensure that nothing slips through the cracks.

NEXT: Ship items produced

After producing items, use the Shipping function to send items to clients (see Shipping to clients), and check them off as produced on the invoice (see Adding & updating individual service items). Then your billing staff finalizes the invoices.
