Capacity splits - answer Used to determine how the work to be performed is distributed
or split among the machines and/or people involved in producing the material.

to a routing or to a specific operation within the routing.
Confirmation - answer Indicates how much work was completed, where it was
completed (work center), and who completed it.
Ex: Time event, ticket, collective, fast entry, milestone, and progress confirmations.
Goods issue - answerMaterials or components are issued to the production order from
storage.
The trigger is the release of the production order.
Goods receipt - answerRecords the receipt of materials into storage, which results in an
increase in inventory quantity.
Item category - answerIdentifies the type of material and influences how the material is
to be used in the BOM.
