How to Initiate Production Through Issue for Processing - First Process?

In this tutorial, we will learn how to initiate the first process in production using the Issue for Processing feature in Logic ERP. This process marks the beginning of the production cycle after creating a Job Order.

Create a Job Order

The Job Order represents the planning stage of production — where you define what needs to be produced, for whom, and how.

Open Job Order

Navigate to the Production\Production Vouchers and then select "Job Order". Under the Assigned To field, choose whether the process will be handled:

By a Worker → for in-house processing, or
By a Party → for outsourced processing.

Let’s proceed with creating a Job Order for an external party.
Select the Party Name, and if required, enter additional details such as Remarks or Job Order Instructions.

Add Items and Quantities

Enter the items to be produced along with their required quantities. You’ll notice a color flag next to each item:

The Green Flag indicates that the raw material is available.

You can view raw material details by clicking Raw Material Details, which displays:

Total raw material requirement.
Virtual reserved stock (based on pending purchase or production orders).
Specifications like Size, Shade, and BOM structure.

From here, you can add or edit Raw Materials, BOM Expenses, and Process-wise Rates as per your requirements.

Modify Raw Material Specification

Setup BOM Expenses

Update Item Rates Per Process

Note: These changes apply only to the current job order.

Once all details are verified, click Save to record and finalize the job order.

Issue for Processing – First Process

The Issue for Processing marks the first stage of the actual production. It defines which styles, designs, or quantities are being released for processing.

a. Select Party or Worker

Choose whether the work is handled internally (Worker) or externally (Party). When issued to a Party, it is also referred to as a Purchase Order Issue.

b. Define Process Details

Select the Party Name
Choose the Process to be initiated
Enter the Processing Rate
Select the Relevant Job Order

The total quantity from the job order will be automatically retrieved.

A single Job Order can be divided into multiple Issues for Processing, allowing production to be executed in smaller batches or across multiple dates.

Enter the required quantity (e.g., 50 pieces per batch) and Save the document.

Issue Raw Material for Processing

After issuing the process, the next step is to issue raw materials required for production.

Open Module

Go to Raw Material Issues Against Job Order (External).

This module is used by the Stores Department to issue materials to external vendors or job workers.

Select Job Order and Production Issue

Select:

The Job Order, and
The corresponding Production Issue (also known as the Purchase Order Issue).

Press F8 to calculate and retrieve the required raw materials. Click Refresh — the system will fetch all materials based on the Bill of Materials (BOM).
