# Production Tracking Reference
## Key Batch Information
Each batch ticket contains:
* `WIP Part Number`: The work-in-process part being produced.
* `Unit of Measure`: Production measurement units.
* `Standard Yield`: Expected production output.
* `Scheduled Yield`: Planned production quantity.
* `Production Week`: Target production timeframe.
* `Special Instructions`: Custom manufacturing notes.
* `Batch Number`: Unique identifier for tracking.
## Batch Status Categories
Batch tickets can have various status designations that indicate their current stage in the production process:
### Production Statuses:
* `Scheduled`: Batches created and scheduled for production.
* `Printed`: Batch tickets printed for production floor use.
* `In Process`: Batches currently being manufactured.
* `Ready to Tint`: Batches ready for color tinting.
* `Complete`: Finished batches.
### Quality Control Statuses:
* `Pending QC`: Batches awaiting quality control testing.
* `QC Delayed`: Batches experiencing QC testing delays.
* `QC Rejected`: Batches that failed quality control standards.
### Post-QC Statuses:
* `Dispersed`: Batches completed and ready for bottling.
* `Bottling Begun`: Batches in bottling operations.
* `Bottling Hold`: Batches temporarily on hold during bottling.
* `In Consignment`: Batches in consignment status.
### Exception Statuses:
* `Dispersion Delayed`: Batches experiencing production delays.
## Bulk Batch Functions
The Bulk Batch Functions tab allows you to perform operations on multiple batch tickets simultaneously, improving efficiency when managing large production schedules.
### Apply to Specified Batches:
Configure bulk operations by setting the following parameters:
* `Batch Numbers`: Enter batch numbers separated by spaces or commas.
* `RM's for what?`: Specify if raw materials are for Finished Goods (FG) or Work-in-Process (WIP).
* `Include Complete?` (Yes/No): Choose whether to include completed batches in the operation.
* `Show Labels Only?` (Yes/No): Display only label information when generating results.
* `Show locations?` (Yes/No): Include location data in the output.
* `Show batch detail?` (Yes/No): Display detailed batch information in results.
* `Use rolling QOH?` (Yes/No): Apply rolling quantity-on-hand calculations for inventory.
* `Drill into Base?` (Yes/No): Include base material details in the analysis.
* `Use Net on Hand?` (Yes/No): Apply net-on-hand inventory calculations.
* `New Week #`: Assign new production week number for rescheduling batches.
Buttons:
* `Generate Requirements`: Generate table with material requirements for selected batches.
* `Print Batch Tickets`: Print physical tickets for production floor use.
* `Deactivate`: Remove batches from active production.
* `Mass move Production Week`: Reschedule multiple batches to different production weeks.
* `Lock Batch Tickets`: Prevent modifications to batch tickets.
* `UnLock Batch Tickets`: Allow modifications to previously locked tickets.
