Scheduling

Scheduling is easy to use, graphical and dynamic.
A graphical planning board shows all the released work orders allocated to work centres, machines or employees.
The scheduler can then manipulate the schedule in order to optimise available resources.
The calendar allows non-working days and extra shifts to be visible to the system and it plans around these.
Any work order can be forward or backward scheduled and rescheduled by dragging and dropping in the same workcentre or into a different one.
The calendar and work-centre process rates can be changed on the fly in order to achieve the best fit.
After finalising the schedule it is saved into the database and all the changes become immediately visible to Sales and Customer Service as well on the shop floor.
Messages are generated to the relevant people for any significant changes such as late delivery of customer orders.
