# Create a Production Order

### How to Create a Production Order in Muhasib ERP

### Overview

This guide will help you create a production order with an initiated status and approved production scope.

Muhasib assigns a transaction number and stores the order for nested production processing.

### Who can do this

You need access to ProductionOrderAdd plus category, product, fiscal-year, and related master.

### Before you start

Confirm active fiscal year, category, document/reference, dates, products, quantities, BOMs, locations, and approval.
