Production execution

Production Planner releases work against a product, customer order and resource. The release command checks the order state, planned quantity, resource availability and planned dates before saving the release result. Production Operator then records the actual production interval and good and scrap units against that work order.

These records give the team production context alongside its OEE review. Work orders and production windows each identify a resource and time basis. Use those details to establish which run is under discussion, especially when a machine carries successive jobs during the same day. The operator’s production log identifies who recorded the run.

• Release preparation. Production Planner checks Draft work in the release inbox and confirms the intended order and resource. The guarded command freezes the release input so a repeated request cannot silently change the plan already released.
• Run recording. Production Operator enters the interval and unit counts. The recording command resolves the acting person, validates the log against work-order eligibility and advances released production to In Progress.
• Batch identity. The initial production record creates the batch identity once. Retrying the same command returns the saved result without making another batch for the same event.

Agree who can release work and how the team confirms that a customer order is eligible. Check that each operator’s account maps to the correct person before recording production. Set a practical convention for naming work orders and logs so a reviewer can follow the run without relying on memory.

Decide how the team prepares a work order for Quality Review and how incomplete output is handed over. A successful log does not settle the final acceptance decision. Production Planner should establish the required output scope and bring disputed counts to Quality Reviewer before treating the job as ready for completion.

Rehearse a Draft work order for Press A with an eligible customer order and agreed planned dates. Production Planner releases it, then repeats the identical command. Confirm that the result remains the original release. Try changing the planned quantity on that same release input and make sure the conflict is resolved before the operator proceeds.

Production Operator next records a valid interval with good and scrap units. Check the attributed person, the move to In Progress and the initial batch. Repeat the same production command and confirm that no extra batch appears. Review an interval whose end precedes its start and ensure that the operator cannot use it as valid run evidence. These checks make the handoff understandable before the first live shift.

• Production Release Inbox — Draft work orders awaiting the planner’s readiness check and release action.
• My Production Logs — The operator’s attributed intervals and good and scrap counts.
• Work Order Schedule — Released work and production under review alongside planned start and end dates.

Start with planning and release, then capture run evidence. Review roles before the first shift.
