Hi,

If you know the role, you can start assigning the role to a user and it will show you the license necessary.

I guess the necessary role will contain "prod", so when I search for it, all of them need SCM license.

If you want to check it in detail, you would need to create your own role with just the duty\privilege for starting the production order and check then the license.

Kind regards, Adis

Just to add below Yes, but with limitations.

The Activity license is designed for users who need limited write access and primarily perform tasks like:

Approving timesheets

Performing warehouse tasks

Entering production job feedback (via job card or device)

Starting and reporting production jobs via the Job Card Device page

Thanks

Ramesh

Hi,

I checked what exact menu item is used for this Start button on the production orders form. This is the element with AOT name ProdStartUpAction. This is part of the privilege Start production which is tagged in the application to require an Activity license. See screenshot below.
