Manufacturing Product Schedule (MPS)

Master Production Scheduling (MPS) allows for scheduling based on single items or item ranges, classes or manufacturing groups. This module also features a summarized view of all finished goods at once and quantities affecting them with drill down to detail.

• Graphical format which allows users to see production bottlenecks at a glance
• Schedule can be viewed by any of five predefined or three user-defined time buckets
• Unlimited “What-if” scenarios which can then be used to update the actual schedule
• Base on the time bucket, drill to forecasts, sales orders or work orders
• Any item may be marked for use in the schedule
• Plant closed dates and holidays may be entered so that these days will not be included in the calculation of the schedule
• Exception notices will be generated whenever changes will affect MPS and MRP.
• An example is cancellation of sales order generated if affecting production.
• Item groups may be established that consist of Parent Item w/sub-assemblies so they may be scheduled at one time
