Works Order Report
Understand what data is captured in a Phoenix work order report and how to interpret it.
🔍 What is the Work Order Report?
The Work Order Report in Phoenix provides a full data record of a job run — including product, packaging, printer templates, and the actual values that were sent to and used by equipment during production.
This report helps site teams verify:
-
What was printed
-
What was selected during setup
-
What barcode and product data was associated with each run
-
How this relates to customer, product, and date code traceability
