There are a few ways - you can create a custom report that's printed from a production order if you need the check list to be printed. Or you can simply add a boolean field to the routing page, or to the production journal page. When a step is completed, the boolean is marked yes. If you provided your requirements in more detail it would be easier to provide a recommendation.

Is this checklist (or a form) outside the system or inside the system?

If it is outside the system, you can create a report, print it out, then confirm it outside the system and finally upload it into the system as an attachment.

If it is within the system, as far as I know this requires customization. I suggest you discuss the detailed requirements with your partners.

Thanks.

The standard Prod. Order Routing has a Routing Status field, which is not shown by default. Could you use this as your Checklist?

The value is switched to "In Progress" when time or material is posted to a specific Operation. An Operation is marked as "Finished" when the "Finished" Boolean is set during Output posting in the Output Journal or Production Journal.

you could use the routing list report which shows all the operations of a production order. You could add a new column to put in the required info
