Note Note

On the Shop Order Maintenance screen, users can override the default work center. Additionally, on the Shop Order Release screen, users on the floor can override both the default work center and the work center specified on the Shop Order Maintenance screen. Your shop may allow senior level shop floor personnel to make this decision to balance workload among lines.
