# Update or Correct a Production Order

### How to Update or Correct a Production Order in Muhasib ERP

### Overview

This guide will help you correct an allowed production order and its nested records without hiding stock or accounting history.

Muhasib saves permitted corrections while retaining existing finalized effects according to nested rules.

### Who can do this

You need access to ProductionOrderUpdate and permissions for each affected nested workflow.

### Before you start

Identify original order, error, current status, finalized children, physical movement, stock/journal effects, correct result, and approval.

Production Order Inquiry → open the exact order → Update or relevant nested action.

### Update or Correct a Production Order

#### Step 1: Review the entire order and nested transaction chain

#### Step 2: Update descriptive/planning fields only while eligible

#### Step 3: Correct each stock- or cost-impacting child through its authorized workflow

#### Step 4: Do not rely on Production Order deletion

#### Step 5: Record reason and approval reference

#### Step 6: Reconcile order, stock, WIP, costs, shipments, and journals

### Check your work

Confirm order status, nested records, quantities, reports, stock ledger, cost, and general ledger.

- Stop if a finalized child cannot be safely reversed.
- Never create undocumented offsetting WIP or wastage.
