1. Manufacture and Scan RAW Stock into Warehouse
- Produce a Raw bar and place it to Inventory. That is, there is no Sales Order for this Product.


2. Sell Finished Product from RAW Stock Warehouse
- Use a raw product to fulfill a Sales Order. This is a core activity, the customer can determine the type of finish the bar gets. That is, the bar is there waiting for the order to come through, to determine the finish. That is, the bar does not have to be made from scratch, thus reducing delivery time.


3. Manufacture and Scan FINISHED Stock into Warehouse
- Produce a finished bar from scratch for Inventory. That is, there is no current Sales order for this product. Does it get wrapped always to protect the finish? Not boxed? Should/does this product need to go over Order Control to be wrapped?


4. Sell Finished Product from FINISHED (boxed or un-boxed) from Stock Warehouse
- A Sales Order picks up a finished product, despatches and invoices it. Where this bar comes from will depend if it is wrapped, boxed, or sitting finished in the warehouse. Is it wrapped to protect the finish and keep dust off?

5. Sell Finished Product from Sales Order
- A Sales Order, from the Web or otherwise, manufactures a finished product from scratch, finishes and despatches it.


Possible inclusions -
Channel Weld
Mounts
Bending
etc
Basic Overview LILAC Desktop and Web Orders
- A bar may start with a: Web Sales Order, LILAC Keyed Sales Order, LILAC Keyed Production Order, in any case, each of which must have a process associated (ie Polished, Stock, Raw, etc) to progress to a Work Order.
- Where there is more then one different product on a Sales or Production Order, each (different, not items) product will be given it's own Work Order. That is a Work Order will only have one product Code on it, there may of course be more that one manufactured, ie, 6 x ABCXYZ.
- The scanning process then takes to Work Order all the way through the factory.
- Finially the invoice scan at Despatch progresses the Work Order into an Invoice, triggering automatic emailing, that is to say that this process is not performed on a LILAC Desktop.

A. Production Order. Process: Raw Stock. (Don't do Stock Raw, this is to sell a raw bar which is rare).
> Work Order.

B. Work Order.
> *Labels: Tag with Hole - Print.

- Once the bar is Work Ordered it will appear at: Documents > East Coast Bull Bars > Welding Jobs - Ribbon Button 'Refresh' may be needed.
- Work Orders are listed by ship date, not Work Order number.
- It needs to be released here, (Release All affect one page at a time).
- The Work Order can be asigned to an employee to designate it for the welder, otherwise (does?) the welder may get the next available released Work Order.... that does not have a Employee asigned to it.
- Following Welding Complete, the Work Order will drop off Documents > East Coast Bull Bars > Welding Jobs... with a refresh, which is a programmed task on the live big screen at ECB.
