• Key Concepts: 
  On hold is a status in SAP Manufacturing Execution (MFG-ME) that indicates that a production order has been stopped or paused. This status can be used to temporarily stop production for a variety of reasons, such as lack of materials, machine breakdowns, or quality issues. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To put a production order on hold, the user must first select the order in the MFG-ME system. Then, they must select the “On Hold” option from the drop-down menu. This will put the order in an “On Hold” status and will prevent any further work from being done on it until it is released.

  When putting an order on hold, it is important to provide a detailed explanation of why the order was stopped. This will help ensure that the order can be quickly resumed when the issue has been resolved. Additionally, it is important to remember to release the order from “On Hold” status when the issue has been resolved.
