  Open is a term used in the Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PPS) component of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) module. It refers to the status of a production order, which indicates that the order is ready to be processed. This status is set when all the necessary data for the order has been entered into the system. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to set an order to open status, all of the necessary data must be entered into the system. This includes information such as the quantity of materials needed, the start and end dates of production, and any other relevant information. Once this data has been entered, the order can be set to open status. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting an order to open status, it is important to double-check that all of the necessary data has been entered correctly. This will ensure that production runs smoothly and that there are no delays due to incorrect information.
