Specify how you want the route's time consumption to be handled. Time consumption is recorded when you post to the ledger. If the field is blank, consumption is recorded when the route journal is posted. The options are as follows:

  • - Consumption is entered according to the route-group operation settings that are selected for the route. If automatic consumption of setup and process time, and automatic reporting of the finished quantity are selected for the attached route group, consumption is entered automatically.

  • - Consumption is entered regardless of settings.

  • - Route consumption is entered when production is reported as finished or manually recorded by using the route card journal or the job card journal.

Select whether to automatically post the created route journal.

Select whether to create the route card journal with the operations that are marked as completed.

  • - Automatically register consumption according to the setting of the field on the BOM line.

  • - Always register automatic consumption.

Select whether to adjust item consumption to current inventory levels. Selecting this field also selects the corresponding check box in the picking list journal. When the journal is posted, consumption is reduced to match current inventory levels.

Select whether to list all component items, including those without calculated consumption, in the picking list journal. If you do not select the field and is set to , then the journal only contains items with calculated consumption. If there are no items with calculated consumption, no picking list journal is generated.

Select whether to create the picking list journal with end-marked lines. This means that no further material consumption is expected to be posted for the production order.

Select whether to pick item consumption automatically, regardless of whether the quantity or amount is available in inventory.

Note Note

The field must also be specified for the item.


If you leave this field blank, production startup is interrupted when a component item has negative inventory. This happens regardless of whether the item is set up for negative inventory, and you see a message that lists any items without sufficient inventory for picking.
