Release production order from hold - Impact workspace

Prev Next

Use Unblock to release a held production order and make the applicable corrective actions available again.

Steps

  1. Go to Product information management > Engineering change management > Engineering change orders.

  2. Open a released ECO you want to review.

  3. On the Action Pane, in the Business impact group, select Open impact workspace.

    The workspace opens for the selected ECO.

    Note

    If the ECO has no lines yet, the button is unavailable. Add at least one affected product first.

  4. In the Production orders section, select the held production order.

  5. Select Unblock.

  6. Review the production order, current status, hold reason, and hold details.

  7. Select Confirm to release the hold.

Select Cancel to close the pane without releasing the hold.

After the hold is released:

  • The order returns to its underlying production status

  • Unblock becomes unavailable

  • Other actions become available based on the production order status

  • Action status changes to Hold released.

  • An entry is added to the Change log. For more information, see Track actions in the change log.

Note

Releasing a hold doesn’t change the underlying production status. For example, a released order returns to the Released status.
