What's the difference between inserting resources in the order and in the operation ???
Sample:

- The team will spent one new pump (specific material), in a specific operation. It's importante know, what operation.
It's important to kwon that all operations resources will be sumed in the order, plus materials inserted in the order.
Sample:
Inserted on operation A: 2 screw bags
Inserted on operation B: 1 screw bags
Inserted on order: 1 screw bags
Order sumary: 4 screw bags

Mobile Work Order Structure
Work Order is a manufacturing document, that is responsible to specify conditions to execute something.
Work Orders are classified in:- Service Order (Used in Maintenance or Service Management process)
- Production Order (Used in Manufacturing process)
- Inspection Order (Used in Quality process)
- Transfer Order (Used in Logistic process)
Different types of orders have particular behaviors, but the structure is always the same.
But Why ???
It's happens, because these business areas are naturally similar.
So much that: Maintenance, Manufacturing, Quality and Logistic are the four pillars of ISA 95 (International Standard provided by International Society of Automation)
- What to do
- How to do
- what to consume
- what to result
