Production Order Planning
The "Production Order Planning" module provides the following functions:
- Forward, backward or bottleneck anchored calculation of production order due dates with respect to meeting requested due dates for customer ordered or stock products,
- Calculation of capacity utilization and methods to move work and level load when capacity utilization exceeds capacity limits on a given production unit,
- Planning methods that consider availability of inventoried stock material (finished and intermediate products) and the potential to allocate stock material to production orders,
- Planning methods that can potentially simplify plant floor operations by combining like or similar production orders, e.g. in case of small order item quantities.
With Steelplanner APS, we target to realize a real breakthrough in supply chain management. We focus to steer the whole supply chain as an integrated process from macro-planning to detailed schedule within one toolset.
