Managing raw materials and optimizing use of
manufacturing facilities are key factors in profitable manufacturing. PRO:MAN's
advanced capabilities are designed to optimize the tracking and control of
components used in the manufacturing process. Bill of Material, Work Order
Control, Capacity Planning, Inventory Management, and Physical Inventory
subsystems comprise the Resource Planning process.
Bill of Material
- Maintains inventory master file
- Maintains products structure file
- lead time offset ( used for Just-In-Time/Inventory Control)
- low level code
- component scrap planning
- type code allows planning control
- quantity per assembly per assembly to 4 decimal places
- reference designators
- item number/bubble number
- comments by component or bill
- One step new part creation (by copying part data,
BOM and routing from an existing part)
- Provides purchased and manufactured short list from
multi-level bill
- Allows bills to be generated via configuration
tables
- Checks continuity as bills are generated
- Provides for copy bill capability
- Has "where used" reporting
- Has multi-level "where used" reporting
Work Order Control
- Allows control over how work orders are opened
- Assigns work order number automatically or manually
- Supports rework orders and work orders for
non-inventory items
- Shows picklists parts referenced to work order
operation
- Shows on-line material issue status by work order
- Prints shortage reports
- Allows changes to:
- start and finish dates of the order
- quantity
- routing steps
scheduled start and completion dates of operations
- Audits and optionally updates the item master
with average run sizes
- Calculates work order start and end dates with
detail
- Ability to audit an open work order and compare
planned completion date with actual and recalculate a planned completion
date
- Prints past due work order status
- Purges work orders to history file on disk or to
tape (provides an audit report of records purged)
Capacity Resource Planning/Routing
- Maintains standard operations with time study
notations
- Maintains work centers
- Supports labor rates by work center
- Support fixed and variable burden rates by work
center
- Maintains multiple routing steps for each part
- Supports copying of routing steps to other parts
- Allows for tooling, additional description, and
drawing reference by routing step
- Supports move and queue time by routing step
- Provides work center where-used information
- Provides for FINITE loading of critical work centers
and/or infinite loading of all non-critical work centers
- Calculates manufacturing lead time based on routing
steps
- Shows capacity requirements graph by work center
- Identifies planned orders and released work orders
with separated totals for each
- Prints work center load detail in a spreadsheet
format
- Allow rough cut loading by work center
- Allows scheduling by individual machine within a
work center
- Uses shop calendar in capacity planning process
(with on screen calendar interface)
- Calculates lead times based on realistic average run
times
Inventory Management
- Display average inventory turns by ABC class code
(detail or summary)
- Issues by exception to work orders (explode-deduct)
- Supports unplanned issues
- Projected inventories for planning
- Available on-line transaction detail
- Shows transaction history for audit, reconciliation
- Flexible reporting structure:
- for a date range (posted or not)
- for each type of transaction (showing data relevant to that type)
- values of inventories by general ledger inventory account number
- Prints extended month end inventory value
- Display receiver records by vendor, purchase order,
part, invoice, packslip and receiver
- Accepts adjustment to inventory
- Supports multiple locations with general ledger
accounts by location
- Confirms shipments of finished goods
- Summarizes part allocations to manufacturing and
sales to provide net available
- Supports work order receipts with backflush option
- Automatically maintains average and last costs for
parts
- Print purchase variances by date and receipts, part,
ledger, or vendor
- General ledger transactions created for each date
and type, drill down detail available from General Ledger back to individual
inventory transactions
Cycle Counting
- ABC calculation and analysis for cycle counting
- Prints cycle count worksheets
- History reports in cycle counting
Physical Inventory
- Supports full inventory of stockroom and work in
process
- Uses tag assignment number and responsibility
- Reports on:
- missing tags
- tags with invalid part numbers
- parts with balances that were not counted
- tags that cannot be valued
- Compares counts with discrepancies and reports
variances (Stores and WIP)
- Rolls counts into new on-hand balances
- Extends value of inventories
- Lot/Location support
- "Freezes" quantities and costs before
count (allows normal processing while count data is entered)
