Production Status
Instruction
This guide describes how to perform the following actions related to updating and retrieving production status of T&As:
- Get the list of T&As
- Get the T&A information
- Update the production status for multiple milestones in a T&A
- Get the production status of a T&A on item or PO level
Precondition
Generate an API Key for your organization and use it to authenticate your API requests.
Steps
-
If you don’t have the list of T&A IDs yet, use the Get List Time and Action API endpoint to retrieve the T&A IDs. You can also use the PO number query parameter to get the T&A ID.
-
To retrieve the milestone’s information, use the Get Time and Action API endpoint.
-
To update the production statuses of milestones, use the Update Time and Actions Production status API endpoint. In the request body of this API, use the JSON format.
Notes:
- You can update production status for production milestones of In Progress T&As only.
- You can update production status for multiple milestones of the same T&As, NOT multiple T&As.
- Based on the milestone's name, you can identify which milestone is production one, and copy the correct milestoneID from step 2 to use in step 3.
- You have two options to update production status: either by PO Level or Item Level, which can be defined by the
productionStatusLevel
field. The WIP quantity should be the accumulated one, ex: 1st-time update 20 units, 2nd-time update 40 units, meaning you have produced 20 units more between 2 update times. - You cannot only update the production status but also start and/or end the production milestones at the same time.
- The
actualStartDate
andactualEndDate
are optional fields in the body so if you want to update production status only, leave them asnull
; or else, you can input the actual date to those fields to start or end milestones. - Each milestone can be started or ended once.
- When a milestone is ended, its production status is considered complete with 100% and its WIP quantity is equal to the order quantity. If you input the
actualEndDate
, make sure the WIP quantity is the same as the order quantity. Otherwise, the system will consider that as two updates: firstly, it completes the milestone and updates the production status to 100%; secondly, it re-updates the production status by the quantity you input.
Example: Update Production Status by PO Level:
Example: Update Production Status by Item Level:
-
To get the production status of the T&A, use the Get Time and Actions Production status API endpoint. You may input your desired query to get the T&A’s production status by item or PO level:
- Query param:
productionStatusLevel
:itemLevel
orpoLevel
Note: If you don’t input a query param, the system will return production status by item level by default.

The updates made on the T&A using the Update Time and Actions Production status API endpoint will reflect on the T&A details page.
