If you generate a production order from a source document (such as a sales order), its general details are populated automatically from that document. You can edit them if necessary.
To learn about the general details of a production order, see the following table.

| Start date | The planned start date of production. |
| Due date | The planned end date of production. It affects the fulfillment status of a production order. If the order is not fulfilled before the Due date, it becomes overdue and the status icon color is changed. To learn more, see Monitoring and changing production order statuses. |
| Manufacturer | A business unit that manufactures the products. A list of business units is based on the Business units catalog. |
