Closing and Deleting Scheduled Orders
In repetitive environments, you can use QAD EE Schedule Delete (18.22,2.7) to delete repetitive scheduled orders and their associated work orders, if any. When deleting, Schedule Delete first deletes the repetitive schedule (rps_mstr), then any production orders (wo_mstr) associated with the repetitive schedule.
This process—deleting the repetitive schedule order first, then the associated production orders—does not work, though, when you manually set a scheduled order to C(losed) using Work Order Maintenance (16.1), then try to use Schedule Delete to delete the schedule. This is because when you set the order status to C, the system deletes the repetitive schedule associated with the work order. With the repetitive schedule deleted, the system does not delete the work orders associated with it.
When this occurs, you must delete the work orders associated with the repetitive scheduled order using either:
Work Order Maintenance (16.1)
Work Order Delete/Archive (16.23)
