Typical transition mechanisms

Typical methodology 1C implies that Orders in "1C: ERP Enterprise Management" must continue to be maintained through the production document flow until they are fully issued and closed, and new production orders must be opened and recorded in them according to the new production document flow of the system. There are no tools for transferring WIP balances to new dimension keys in typical processing. In addition, it was necessary to update the 1C software product implemented by the Customer after the month-end closing procedure.
