Background: WIP Register

Use the WIP Register (WIPR) program to print a listing of good and scrapped pieces for operation sequences on a manufacturing order and update the general ledger if you have inventory interfaced to the GL. See Overview: Interfacing Inventory to GL and Road Map for more information.
