Abstract
A method and system for changing an order for a product where production of the order is currently in progress in a flexible order transaction system and where yield, scrap, and work-in-process (WIP) are calculated for reporting points in the order process and are transferred to the new order for the new product. The transfer from the original order to the new order occurs at several mapped reporting points in the product change action. Unmapped scrap, WIP, and/or component and resource usage may be transferred to the new order at preceding or subsequent mapped reporting points from the original order to the new order.
