Plant schedule forms the basis for defining these
attributes to determine the capacity the work centers.
In addition to capacity data, formulas for calculation of
processing times and capacity loads are stored in the
work center. As all work centers are allocated to a work
plan, acquisition effort for work plans is drastically
reduced. Each work station is assigned to a cost center,
which guarantees that costs are continuously allocated
against the appropriate cost centers across the entire
production process.
Reliable planning guaranteeing effectiveness
For organizations with manufacturing-intensive
operations, production planning establishes the basis
for production control. The more precise the data in production planning, the higher will be the planning
reliability in production. Although data acquired in
materials requirement planning serves for rough capacity
planning, data flowing out of production planning takes
precedence for finite capacity planning.
Integration for an efficient production
Production planning data is considered as the master
data for production, and other departments such as cost
and payroll accounting as well as sales rely on this data.
Cost and payroll accounting uses production
planning data to carry out production accounting. For a
sales department, production planning data serves as
the basis for calculating the ultimate sales pricing.
The CANIAS ERP Routing module offers integrated
production planning and facilitates accurate planning
and control of all production activities.
