Component Check by Work Order/Production Line
Production schedulers can use Component Check by Work Order/Production Line to quickly determine if the production schedule is viable for the day, week, month, or any specified period. Component Check by Work Order/Production Line provides quick answers for production schedulers when they need to know the following:
• Before releasing a work order (WO) to the floor, are all components available?
• For production orders scheduled over the next one+ days, are there component shortages?
For repetitive production schedules, you can determine if there are material shortages, which components are short and by when, or whether you have enough supply coming in to meet future demand. This is accomplished with a time-phased component shortage engine that calculates availability and lets you view work order component status in terms of shortage severity. That is, you can easily determine which components have a shortage and the level of severity for the shortage.
Because the system provides a time-phased view of component supply and demand, you can know your supply and demand based on any given date, work order, or production line. You can:
View production schedule data by any combination of site; production line or operation; item, due, or release dates; quantity complete, open, or ordered; and more.
• View both planned and scheduled orders associated with a production line.
• Identify which repetitive orders have material shortages related to them.
• Identify the components causing the shortage related to a repetitive order.
• Locate and determine the cause of material shortages.
• View in-transit supply in the form of ASN receipts.
