  Key Concepts: 
  Hold code is a feature in the MFG-CAM SAP Complex Assembly Manufacturing component that allows users to temporarily suspend production of an item. This feature is useful when there is a need to stop production for any reason, such as a quality issue or a shortage of materials. The hold code can be used to prevent further production until the issue is resolved. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the hold code feature, users must first select the item they wish to suspend production on. Then, they must select the “Hold” option from the menu. This will bring up a dialog box where users can enter the reason for suspending production and select the “OK” button to save their changes. Once the hold code has been applied, production of the item will be suspended until it is removed. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the hold code feature, it is important to remember that it should only be used when absolutely necessary. It should not be used as a substitute for proper planning and scheduling of production. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all relevant personnel are aware of the hold code and its implications before applying it.
