New Hire at the Pen Factory

What is Production Result?

Production Result

A record of how many work orders were actually made.

What it means

The production output tells the system that the shop floor has “made this much.” Production output can be entered multiple times in one work order.

If you input production output, the inventory will move together. The inventory of products made increases, and the inventory of materials used to make them decreases. A single input replaces multiple numbers.

At the pen factory

On the fourth day, Supervisor Park puts the 50 pens he made in the morning into the shop floor terminal. Ballpoint pen inventory increases by 50, barrel, cap, spring, and black refill decrease by 50 pieces, and packaging boxes decrease by 5 pieces.

Why it matters

If there is no production output, the inventory on the screen is as it was before creation. You can't determine if you have something to send to a customer or if you need to buy more materials.

How this differs from Work order

If the production output is more than the indicated quantity, something may have been entered incorrectly. This is the case with the events of Day 6 of the game.
