Code / object	Kind	Meaning	Practical note
10	Order category	Production order (discrete PP-SFC)	Stored in AUFK-AUTYP. Most discrete manufacturing orders use this category.
40	Order category	Process order (PP-PI)	Used in process industries with master recipes instead of routings.
30	Order category	Maintenance order (PM)	Handled by plant maintenance, not shop floor control.
20	Order category	Network (PS)	Project system activities, not a PP order.
05	Order category	Product cost collector	Used with repetitive manufacturing and cost collection by period.
01	Order category	Internal order (CO)	Controlling order, no BOM or routing.
PP01	Order type	Standard delivered production order type	Most projects copy it into customer types. Check your own system for the types in use.
OPJH	Config transaction	Define order type dependent parameters (PP)	Controls status profile, settlement profile, costing variants and release behavior.
Order type	Order type control	Number range, status profile, settlement profile, cost variants, confirmation parameters	Different order types let you separate normal, rework and subcontract style orders.
CRTD	System status	Created	Order exists but is not released. No confirmations or goods issues yet.
REL	System status	Released	Shop floor can confirm and post goods movements.
PCNF	System status	Partially confirmed	At least one operation has a confirmation but not all.
CNF	System status	Confirmed	All operations are fully confirmed.
PDLV	System status	Partially delivered	Part of the order quantity received into stock.
DLV	System status	Delivered	Order quantity received. Delivery complete is set by the system or user.
GMPS	System status	Goods movement posted	Any goods movement exists on the order.
MACM	System status	Material committed	Availability check confirmed components are covered.
MSPT	System status	Material shortage	Availability check found missing components. Review in CO24.
PRT	System status	Printed	Shop papers have been printed.
SETC	System status	Settlement rule created	Required before settlement of variances.
LKD	System status	Locked	Order is locked against further processing.
TECO	System status	Technically completed	Open reservations and capacity requirements are removed. Costs still settle.
CLSD	System status	Closed	Business completion. Normally follows settlement. Can be reversed with a reset.
DLFL	System status	Deletion flag	Set for archiving. Order no longer shows in normal selections.
DLID	System status	Deletion indicator	Order is marked for deletion pending archiving.
CO01	Transaction	Create production order	Create with material, plant and order type.
CO02	Transaction	Change production order	Release, reschedule, TECO and status changes.
CO03	Transaction	Display production order	Read only view of header, operations and components.
CO40	Transaction	Convert planned orders to production orders	Works for a selection of planned orders. See the planned order conversion checklist.
CO11N	Transaction	Enter time ticket	Confirm an operation with quantities and times.
CO15	Transaction	Enter production order confirmation	Confirm an operation or whole order, with backflush as configured.
CO13	Transaction	Cancel confirmation	Reverses a posted confirmation and related goods movements.
CO24	Transaction	Missing parts info system	Lists shortages per order and component.
CO09	Transaction	Availability overview	Component availability for an order or material.
COOIS	Transaction	Order information system	List and filter orders, operations and components.
COHV	Transaction	Mass processing of production orders	Mass release, schedule, TECO and print in background.
CO88	Transaction	Collective settlement of production orders	Settles variances to the target objects.
AUFK	Table	Order master data	Common to all order categories. AUFNR is the order number.
AFKO	Table	Order header data PP orders	Scheduling dates, task list link and BOM explosion data.
AFPO	Table	Order item	Material, quantity and delivery data. Join to AFKO on AUFNR.
AFVC	Table	Operation within an order	Work center, control key and operation number.
AFVV	Table	Quantities, dates and values for the operation	Setup, machine and labor standard values.
RESB	Table	Reservation and dependent requirements	Order components. Filter by AUFNR and BDART.
AFRU	Table	Order confirmations	One row per confirmation. Reversals are flagged.
JEST	Table	Individual status per object	Join with OBJNR from AUFK to read order statuses.

Standard values shown are from the delivered SAP data model. Order types, status profiles and number ranges are customer specific, so confirm against your own configuration.

How to use the reference

Search for a status like TECO, a transaction like CO15 or a table like AFKO. The Kind column separates categories, statuses, transactions and tables so you can narrow the list. Use it as a quick check when reading an order in CO03, writing a COOIS variant or building a report that joins AUFK, AFKO, AFPO and AFVC. Export it to hand a new planner or key user a one page cheat sheet.

Order category versus order type

Order category is a technical classification fixed by SAP: 10 for production orders, 40 for process orders, 30 for maintenance orders. Order type is a four character key you define under each category. It carries the number range, status profile, settlement profile and costing parameters. Many sites run one type for normal orders and others for rework, prototype or subcontracting so costs and statuses can be reported separately.

Reading statuses correctly

System statuses are set by SAP as the order moves through its life: CRTD, REL, PCNF, CNF, DLV, TECO and CLSD. An order can hold several at once, for example REL, PCNF and GMPS. TECO is not the same as CLSD. TECO stops further planning and removes open reservations, while CLSD is the business close that normally follows variance settlement. Mixing these up is a frequent cause of open WIP at period end.

Common mistakes

Deleting an order flag instead of using TECO leaves history unclear. Releasing orders without an availability check hides shortages that CO24 would have shown. Settling before all confirmations are posted pushes variances into the wrong period.

Do not close orders with open goods issues
Check the settlement rule exists before CO88
Use COHV for mass TECO instead of manual change

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between TECO and CLSD in SAP?

TECO means technically complete: no more goods movements or confirmations are planned, open reservations and capacity requirements are removed, but costs can still be settled. CLSD is the business close, usually set after settlement. TECO can be reversed more easily than a close.

Where do I configure production order types?

Order type dependent parameters for PP orders are maintained in the Customizing transaction OPJH, along with related settings in the production planning IMG. Order types are tied to an order category, so a production order type uses category 10.

Which tables hold production order data?

AUFK holds the common order master, AFKO the PP header with dates, AFPO the item and material, AFVC the operations and RESB the components. Join AFKO to AFPO on AUFNR, and use OBJNR from AUFK to read statuses from JEST.

Can an order have more than one system status?

Yes. System statuses are cumulative. A running order can be REL, PCNF, GMPS and MACM at the same time. Selection screens like COOIS let you include or exclude combinations to find orders that need action.

If your planners keep exporting order lists from COOIS, we can build a read only assistant over your S/4HANA data that answers questions about order status and delays, with the query visible.
