IFS/Shop Order manages the execution of manufacturing and assembly with support for many production models. In addition to the extensive support for all stages in the shop order flow and handling of material, machine and labor operations, there is advanced functionality for handling tools and bar codes as well as balancing divergent order flows. Multi-level serial and lot/batch tracking is fully supported. Both BOMs and recipes can be used with date or serial effectivity. Shop Order is closely integrated with IFS/Costing and IFS/Inventory ensuring proper cost control and efficient use of different inventory valuation methods for manufactured parts.
