Deleting production operations in Katana is fairly straightforward. Operations can be removed from individual products or in bulk across multiple products.
This process is essential for maintaining an up-to-date production environment, ensuring that only relevant operations are in the system. The guide details the steps for both single and bulk deletion.
Note: If the option to create/edit a production operation isn't available, take a look at this article regarding user permissions.
Deleting the production operations for a single product
To delete operations for a product:
Navigate to the Items screen and select a product from the list. (If a product has multiple variants, selecting any variant will direct you to the product card for all variants.)
Inside the Product card, click on the Production operations tab (the product needs to have Make checkmarked).
Find the Delete option under the 3-dot button in the top corner.
If the product has multiple variants, this will also delete all variants of the product.
Note: If you have open manufacturing orders (MO) for the product, this action won't delete production operations on those MOs. To delete or update production operations on existing MOs, go to the MO card and click Refresh data at the bottom of the screen.
Deleting the production operations in bulk (for multiple products)
To delete Production operations for multiple products:
Navigate to the Items screen.
Select the products you want to delete the Product recipe / BOM from. If no products are selected, the following steps will delete operations for all products.
Click the Trash icon and select Operations from the dropdown.
Note: If you select the variant of a product that has multiple variants, this will delete the operations for all the product variants.
