These are the Top 3 Questions we see in SAP Business One Support about printing Checks for Payment. Question 1: How do you print Checks for Payment if the checking account is locked?

 Why does production variance (total variance) occur? What happens to the total variance when you close the production order? If there is a difference between the value of the issued components and the received products, this results in production variance, which is referred as total variance in the application. Production variance often occurs because of the following: 1. Component overconsumption: The quantity of components consumed in production was greater than planned, which causes a negative variance. 2. Component savings: The quantity of components consumed in production was less than planned, which causes positive variance. 3. "Receipt before issue" scenario: The receipt from production is added before the issue for production.
