Yes, tasks can be used to produce stuff (and the screens you see are
exactly for setting the allowed products; then you can use the main
production runs screen to 'produce' them): however it is a manual
process and as I see it it should only be used for non standard results.

This is not true, but think it as you prefer.

Go for it. I'd suggest (as I already told you in one of my previous
posts) to create a Wiki page for this.

I really cannot promise this, but if I can I will continue to help you all.

I've never said something like this., but, again, think it as you
prefer: no time to discuss with you.
You are really making too many assumptions and in my opinion this is a
common pattern for people, like you, that speak too much :-)

As a general rule, if you want to get a chance to get any kind of
attention from me, keep your messages as short as possible: chances are
that I will not read more than the first 5 lines of your posts from now
on (sorry but I simply don't have the time to chat with you).

Good luck for your project,

Jacopo
