For each production unit, create a production plan to specify the amount of product you plan to produce during a set time period. You can create the plan on any schedule, such as yearly, quarterly, monthly, and so on.
If an event such as an equipment failure or a planned shutdown occurs and causes you to incur a production loss, document the event.
Enter production data on a daily basis. This includes entering the amount of product that you produced and accounting for any losses that you incurred each day.
