Setup and access
Production is an optional module with its own permissions and an immutable audit trail.
Turning Production on or off
Section titled “Turning Production on or off”A tenant-admin setting controls whether Production is enabled.
- When enabled, the production role permissions are seeded and the module appears.
- When disabled:
- Production is hidden from navigation and its related screens are hidden.
- Raw-material, semi-finished and consumable pickers are hidden in Purchasing and Inventory.
- BOM, factory-order, equipment-calendar and daily-output features are unavailable.
You can’t disable the module while there are open production orders, close or cancel them first. Toggling the setting is captured in the audit log with the actor, the before/after value and a timestamp, and is restricted to the tenant admin.
Permissions
Section titled “Permissions”Production actions are deny-by-default:
- Creating or editing a BOM requires the BOM-manage permission.
- Completing a factory order (which posts stock) is a sensitive action requiring the production-complete permission.
- A Viewer can read dashboards and lists but can’t create or complete orders.
- A denied action returns an error and writes no data.
Audit trail
Section titled “Audit trail”Production keeps an append-only, immutable audit trail:
- Each status change records the user, order, from→to and timestamp.
- Each completion records the produced quantity, component consumptions, finished-goods increase, scrap, QC routing and the resulting Inventory stock movement references.
Audit entries can’t be edited or deleted, and you can query them by order and by date, giving you full traceability of production activity and its stock impact.
