Integration with Production Scenarios

The Manufacturing Batch Size Extension can operate in conjunction with the Production Scenarios App without requiring direct dependency. However, specific validations are necessary to ensure seamless functionality and adherence to batch production principles when both extensions are used simultaneously. This integration is facilitated through the Integration Layer module from the Tools extension.

Validations and Behavior Adjustments

On the Production Scenarios extension, when creating Production Orders manually, the system checks the Process Type from the Production Scenario table for the corresponding SKU or Item. The system validates the Production BOM/Production BOM Version associated with the Process Type and disregards the BOM set on the Item Card/SKU.

When the validated Production BOM has Batch Size BOM = Yes, the following confirmation message during the Refresh Production Order process appears: “Production BOM is set as Batch Size, do you want to create one Production Order per Batch?”

• If Yes: The system adjusts the Quantity of the Production Order to align with the Batch Quantity from the Production BOM. If the calculated Number of Batches exceeds 1 (determined by Quantity / Batch Quantity), the system copies the original Production Order and creates multiple orders—one for each batch. If the Quantity of the Production Order is lower than the Batch Quantity, the system adjusts the quantity to match the Batch Quantity without creating additional orders.
• If No: The system operates as standard. The field Batch Production Order is set to False. The Batch Quantity remains as defined in the Production BOM but does not enforce batch-specific behavior.

When Production BOM = Standard, the system processes the Refresh Production Order as per standard behavior.
