Settings

Manufacturing order settings live at Settings → Manufacturing Orders, with two tabs: Export and Email. Both are Elevate-plan features.

Where these settings are opened from

You can navigate here directly from Settings, or Logistified deep-links you straight to the relevant tab: the Export… dialog on a manufacturing order links to the Export tab if you choose to manage templates, and Send to Manufacturer links to the Email tab the same way.

Export templates

The Export tab has four template cards, one per document a manufacturing order can produce:

PDF — the production document. Controls which columns appear for items and materials, and lets you switch off the Built quantity, the Remaining quantity, the build details block, the manufacturing notes, and the materials table independently — each is on by default.
Items XLSX/CSV — one row per item being built.
Materials XLSX/CSV — one row per material requirement.
Manufacturing Order Level XLSX/CSV — one summary row per order, used by both the detail-page export and the list page’s bulk export.

Each card works like other template editors in Logistified: create a new template, choose which columns to include and in what order, and set one as the default used by quick exports. Manufacturing orders don’t carry cost data, so there’s no price-related toggle or date-mapping card here — unlike purchase orders, they only have one set of dates (created, expected completion) with nothing to map.

Email template

The Email tab holds the template used when you send a production order to a subcontractor. The default is named “Standard Production Order” and greets the manufacturer directly rather than a generic “Team”.

Available placeholders you can drop into the subject or body:

Placeholder	Fills in
`{MO_NUMBER}`	The manufacturing order’s number
`{MANUFACTURER_NAME}`	The subcontractor’s name
`{MANUFACTURER_CONTACT_PERSON}`	The subcontractor’s contact person
`{EXPECTED_COMPLETION_DATE}`	The build’s expected completion date
`{ITEMS_COUNT}`	How many items are on the build
`{TARGET_QUANTITY}`	The build’s total target quantity
`{REPLY_TO_EMAIL}`	Your reply-to address
`{PHONE_NUMBER}`	Your phone number
`{COMPANY_NAME}`	Your company name

A placeholder that’s misspelled is left as-is in the preview rather than silently disappearing, so a typo is easy to spot before sending.

What isn’t here

Sender identity — see Settings → Purchase Orders, shared across all document types.
Document types for uploads — the tags offered when uploading a file to a manufacturing order’s Attachments tab are the same shared list used by purchase orders, transfers and return orders.
