Automatic WO transaction
This parameter is used by the purchasing and manufacturing functions that can automatically generate work orders.
The order release process in the functions that can automatically generate work orders use the entry transaction specified in this parameter to determine which information is to be included in the generated work order, and what information is displayed and printed.
You use this parameter to define which entry transaction associated with the function is defined specifically for automatic order generation.
The entry transaction you define in this parameter must have the Transaction reserved for the automatic generation

Comments
It is a prerequisite when setting up work order entry transactions that a minimum of one entry transaction is dedicated to the automatic work order generation functions (to support the release of work orders). This is achieved by selecting the Transaction reserved for automatic generation check box (field TRSAUTO) in the Work orders entry transactions function (GESMFL). Sage recommends that you assign an entry transaction code to this parameter that has this check box selected.
