"Administration '%1', fiscal year '%2': General ledger account for '%3' is unknown." Why do you receive this notification and what can you do to resolve it?

The standard report 'WIP Standard' provides an overview of work in progress (WIP) per production order. It shows the progress of production, costs (labor, machinery, materials, outsourcing), realized and billable revenue, and the percentage ready for each sub-assembly. Totals are calculated per production group, distinguishing between completed and non-completed work. The report aids in assessing work in progress positions and the financial progress of production projects.

The standard report 'WIP at Reference Period' displays the work in progress (WIP) within a selected period, broken down by cost components such as man hours, machine costs, materials, and outsourcing. The data is grouped by production order line and general ledger account, with totals per group and summaries per production group. Additionally, the report includes a pivot table with WIP values per production group, providing insights into the composition and distribution of work in progress within a financial period.

Do you create products that you think you will sell more than once? Make it an item. In MKG, this can be done very easily from an existing sales quote or sales order. It saves a lot of input work when creating the next one, especially if you have an associated calculation that you can use as a bill of materials.

Depending on the financial setup, entries are recorded in the administration. When creating a financial entry, MKG process tables are consulted to determine which general ledger account is posted. This article shows the interrelation between all financial entries.

The standard dashboard 'WIP Period Analysis Financial' shows the total balance of the work in progress for the period. This dashboard also allows analysis of the postings and reversals on the work in progress.

The standard dashboard 'Order List Financial (WIP)' provides insight into the financial progress of ongoing orders. It displays the current sales orders and their associated financial values along with the linked production orders. The dashboard can be executed for a specific period.

Production orders can be easily created based on existing structures and data. In these situations, input remains limited or is even completely unnecessary. This guide shows how to manually enter a production order.
