In the production scheduler Asprova, when a task is completed, the order becomes in progress, and when it is reverted to planned, it returns to not started. Completing an order results in all tasks being completed, but reverting to not started does not erase the work records, and it does not return to planned.

What this article covers
- In Asprova, completing an order results in all tasks being completed, but reverting to not started does not erase work records.
- Work status is divided into three stages: planned, instructed, and in progress, with different actions at each stage.
- Planned tasks can be moved by drag and drop and manually adjusted during rescheduling.
- Order status can only be manually changed to not started and completed, and becomes in progress automatically with work records.
- The quantity fixation level determines the total quantity of tasks within an order and affects the planned quantity of subsequent processes.
Work Status (Planned, Instructed, Completed)
In a production management system, work status is divided into three stages based on the flow from planning to issuing instructions and entering actual results.
Planning Stage "Planned"
At this stage, tasks can be moved by drag and drop, allowing manual adjustments to rescheduling results for further rescheduling. Resource fixation allows movement within the same resource, time fixation allows movement within the same time, and full fixation does not move at all during rescheduling.
- Planned (Date Fixation Level 0): Moves with drag and drop and rescheduling
- Fully Fixed in Planned (Date Fixation Level 10): Moves with drag and drop but not with rescheduling.
Manufacturing Instruction Output Stage "Instructed" or "Confirmed"
Considering the lag from issuing manufacturing instructions to feedback on actual results, the status of instructed tasks is set to "Instructed" or "Confirmed" to place them based on the planned reference date regardless of actual results. However, tasks without actual results remain assigned to the past as assumed results, requiring regular checks.
- Instructed (Date Fixation Level 20): Does not move at all with drag and drop
- Confirmed (Date Fixation Level 30): Does not move at all with drag and drop
Manufacturing Actual Stage "In Progress" or "Completed"
At this stage, tasks do not move with drag and drop or rescheduling.
- In Progress (Date Fixation Level 40): Actual start date, actual quantity
- Completed (Date Fixation Level 50): Enter actual end date
Order Status
Order status changes from the order table are only possible for "Not Started" and "Completed." When actual results are entered for tasks belonging to an order, it becomes "In Progress," and when all task steps are completed, it becomes "Completed." Orders are broken down into task steps, but from the order table, it is not possible to determine which tasks are in progress, so "In Progress" can only be set from the task table.
When downloading manufacturing orders generated by the production management system's MRP to the scheduler and assigning tasks to resources, it is more convenient to enter actual results per order. The actual start date, actual end date, good product yield, and completion status of the production management system's manufacturing instructions are uploaded to the scheduler's order table's actual start date, actual end date, actual quantity, and status.
The quantity fixation level determines the total quantity of tasks within an order and generally uses the largest quantity fixation level as the basis for calculating the quantity of tasks in preceding and subsequent processes. When entering the actual quantity of tasks, the planned quantity of subsequent processes is linked (limited to tasks within the same order). For example, even if actual results do not rise as planned, if the actual progress rate is 50% and the actual end date is entered, the status becomes completed, and the quantity of subsequent tasks changes.
Incidentally, if item codes are defined per process unit according to the BOM structure of the production management system, the quantity fixation level does not affect the schedule.
Link Between Work Status and Order Status
Order status can only be manually changed to "Not Started" and "Completed." This is because, from the order's perspective, it is not possible to determine which tasks are completed. When actual results are entered for tasks, the order status changes to "In Progress." Completing the initial process task of an order changes the order to "In Progress," and completing the final process task changes the order to "Completed."
However, even if the order is reverted to "Not Started," tasks remain "Completed," and if all tasks are set to "Not Started," the order also reverts to "Not Started."
When Entering Actual Results for Tasks
Completing a task changes the order containing the task to "In Progress," and reverting the task to planned changes the order to "Not Started."
When Entering Actual Results for Orders
Completing an order results in all task steps being completed, but reverting the order to "Not Started" does not return tasks to planned. Work records do not disappear.
Frequently Asked Questions | Asprova's Work Status Management
Based on the content of this article, frequently asked questions are briefly organized.
How is the order status changed in Asprova?
In Asprova, order status can only be manually changed to "Not Started" and "Completed." When actual results are entered for tasks, the order becomes "In Progress," and when all tasks are completed, it becomes "Completed." Reverting the order to "Not Started" does not erase work records.
What does "Planned" mean in work status?
"Planned" indicates that tasks are in the planning stage and can be moved by drag and drop. It is used when manually adjusting rescheduling results, and movement restrictions vary depending on resource fixation and time fixation settings.
What should be noted when entering actual results for orders?
When entering actual results for orders, all task steps are completed, but reverting the order to "Not Started" does not return tasks to planned. Work records do not disappear, so if plan readjustment is necessary, it must be done.
