ROUTING AND RESOURCES
The best way to define, track, and review your manufacturing activity is to start with GUAVA Manufacturing Bill of Materials. Regardless of their complexity, you’ll be defining bills of material with features such as mixed unit of measure, multiple routing definition, detailed routing, cross-group costing, scrap tracking, and total visual documentation. Robust reporting gives you quick access to vital manufacturing information
The perfect complement to the Bill of Materials module, GUAVA-ERP Routing and Resources helps define labor, machinery, tooling, and work centers. In terms of costs and times, these elements make up the process side of the manufacturing bill of materials. After helping you define elements of your operation, you can create step-by-step routings for use in the Bill of Materials application. The Routing and Resources application provides true production flexibility.
Routing and Resources features:
- Calculate overhead by labor, machinery, piece, and/or flat rate
- Set up required labor by machine group
- Define tooling by operation
- Estimate billing rates
PRODUCTION SCHEDULING
Jobdispo Graphical Scheduler provides REAL DELIVERY DATES, instantly and in realtime. At a glance late jobs are known, bottlenecks identified, stoppages are recognized, and any missing manufacturing data can be identified immediately! Because Jobdispo operates in real time, actions taken by manufacturing staff, dictated by real world events, are reflected in the system and show up graphically as they occur.
Jobdispo is a finite production scheduler that takes actual capacities into account. It can be used in combination with ERP/MRP systems or standalone. Jobdispo uses advanced scheduling algorithms in order to optimise throughput times and adhere to delivery dates and capacity utilisation. Jobdispo is suitable for make-to-order and/or make-to-stock manufacturers.
It can handle a growing bill of materials, and offers a top-down planning approach with an increasing level of detail. With one-screen-technology, all relevant information for a project with it‘s sub-assemblies, or a single part with operations can be seen at a glance. Once a work order has been planned and released for manufacturing, the order progress can easily be monitored and controlled.
SHOP FLOOR DATA COLLECTION
A realistic production planning and scheduling and preliminary costing is only possible via a capture of the actual production data. A plan is only feasible and accurat, if a consequential adjustment of the planned and the actual data is ensured. Your complete order processing can be more transparent, effective and efficient.
