When you enter a work order for a base process or co-product, the system
creates a joint order set comprised of a work order for the base process
and one for each of its co-products and by-products. All work orders in
the joint set (called joint orders) share the same work order number, site,
and status, but have different work order IDs.
A joint order set consists of the following.
• A work order for the base process
• A work order for each co-product and by-product
• A work order bill for the base process
• A work order routing for the base process
