Reverse Production-Orders: 3 Benefits of The New Tool
Posted on: April 29, 2025 | By: Page Wildridge | Microsoft Dynamics Business Central
Microsoft just rolled out their newest updates and improvements to Dynamics Business Central in the 2025 Release Wave 1. The release comes with Microsoft’s YouTube Learn series, where you can hear about the features and how to use them properly. One of the greatest new improvements is reversing production order transactions which helps your business ensure you have accurate reporting. In this blog, we will cover the benefits of this tool.
What is the reversal tool?
If production does not go as planned, you need to ensure that your finances, inventory, and transitions maintain accuracy. Now, you have higher functionality within the ERP to dictate what went wrong to correct the mistakes within your ledgers. This includes if you need to revert output, return unused materials to your warehouse, or other errors that you ran into. Even if you marked a production order as finished, you can reopen this entry to make corrections.
How can I reverse my mistakes?
Begin by opening the production order that has a mistake and navigate to “Actions” so you can click “Reopen.” This will redirect you to a restored version of your Production Order. You can then upload the missing document and examine the ledger entries that you believe have erroneous information that is throwing off your reporting. To do so, click “other” and then “entries,” to choose one of the four entries that contains the mistake. After finding the entry, click “actions” again, and click “reverse production order transaction.” This creates a new entry that negates the information in the incorrect one. After correcting all errors by following the same procedure, change the status of your production order to “finished.”
Reversing issues with Subcontracting
If your production order contains subcontracting, the process for reversing your errors follows a slightly different process. Navigate to the purchase order and open “receipt” to select the information linked to the production order. Then, click on functions to choose “undo receipt.” After, close the receipt and delete the purchase order to ensure that the “output” of your order has changed. If you have a production order that is a work in progress, go to the manufacturing setup page and toggle “allow finishing production orders without output” to “On.” When you go to change the status of your production order to finish but you still have output missing, the work in progress account will be transferred to the inventory adjustment account.
