production-planning

Create a production schedule by inputting BOMs, routings, and work center capacity constraints to generate a feasible weekly plan. This process aligns product structures with available capacity to optimize machine and labor utilization across the shop floor.

Forward scheduling starts from the current date to determine completion, while backward scheduling works from the delivery date to establish start times. Both methods optimize work order release and shop-floor control to minimize idle time and late deliveries.

Yes, you must define BOMs, routings, work centers, and capacity constraints before generating work orders. These definitions are required to align product structures with capacity and optimize machine and labor utilization during scheduling.

Track OEE and WIP metrics using dashboards and alerts during shop-floor control to monitor production performance. These metrics guide capacity planning and work order scheduling to meet delivery dates and minimize idle time.

Yes, it manages work order creation, release, and scheduling for discrete, batch, and complex multi-plant manufacturing environments. It uses BOM management and routing definitions to optimize utilization and minimize late deliveries.
