Definition
A production order for recycling is created for specific tasks related to the breakdown of the main product into components for the recycling needs.
The production order is used to create a schedule by items and quantity, to control order execution, to manage demand for production.
A production order for recycling is created specifying the main product to be dismantled into components. The BOM defines the required operations and required components. Default standard BoM (and route sheets) specified for each product ordered for recycling. Sometimes this data can be filled in manually in production stages.
As a result of this process, a production order for recycling is created.
