Post output of catch weight item

You can post the output of a Catch Weight item from the Shop Floor Production app.

  1. On the Shop Floor Production app, select a company.
  2. Select a Work Centre.
  3. Select the start Productionbutton.
    The Production Order page opens.
  4. Select the required Production Order.
  5. On the Production Order page, click the Output button.
  6. On the Output page, click the Register Output button. The output register pop-up will be shown. Here, the system suggests the average weight of the output item.
  7. Enter the value in the Quantity field.
  8. The Weight Quantity field is populated with the value based on the net weight of the value entered in the Quantity field.
  9. Click the Save button.

The Weight Quantity KG field is shown on the Output page only when the output item is a Catch Weight item.

In Business Central, while posting from SFP application along with the Quantity, the Weight Quantity (KG) field is also updated on the Shop Floor Production Registration Entries page and CDS Shop Floor Production Registration Entries page.

The Finished Weight Quantity (KG), Remaining Weight Quantity (KG) and Weight Quantity (KG) fields on the Production Order line are updated.


You can add weight quantity values to the labels for the Catch Weight items and print the correct labels using the Label Printer icon on the Output page.


Along with the Quantity of the Output you can also edit the Weight Quantity (KG) value of the output using the SFP's correction functionality.
