Publish a work order so it appears in the MES portal

Publish or republish a design so its work order becomes available to the factory team in the MES portal.

1. Publishing it (or republishing after changes) is what makes its work order available to the factory team there.

2. Verification is performed on the production output rather than on the design alone, so the design must be sent to production first before verification can begin.

3. Panel boring details are not available in the design stage; they are obtained from the panel drawing once the work order has been published.

4. Published panels are flagged as eligible for billing, so the panel count shown at publish can affect billing.

5. Republishing updates only the work order you republish; other work orders keep showing their previously published version until each is republished in turn.

6. After republishing a work order, the manufacturing outputs must be downloaded again from the published version in the MES so the files reflect the latest changes.
