6. Features : Planning & Scheduling Part
The planning & scheduling part allows you to
Set the priorities of the orders in hand
Use Gantt chart for scheduling the orders for different scenarios.
Schedule the orders on the basis of sequence of insertion , due dates,
priorities, combination of insertion date and priorities, combination of
due dates and priorities.
Identify and manage impact of high priority orders
Generate schedule for available machines considering their capacities on
daily basis
Facility of capacity calculator for each work station

7. Features : Control Part
The Control part allows you to
Record shift wise production output at each workstation into the system
Manage the production at vendor site if any
Have quality control check if defined into the system on the production
quantity at both in-house and vendor site
It will not allow to override the sequence of manufacturing processes
already defined into the system for a particular product
Facility of Shift Management

9. Resource Settings
The resource capacities can be defined for individual operation or
combination of multiple operations into the system. Hence if a machine
is doing multiple operations on a product in one setup, we can define the
combined capacity for all those operations and ultimately can record the
production against those combined operations.
The machine capacities can be set machine wise or product wise. i.e.
They can be set depending on the product to be manufactured on a
particular machine or irrespective of the product.
For a product to manufacture, the capacities can be set as combination of
machine wise or product wise settings for different processes in the
manufacturing cycle.

10. Planning Settings
The planning can be done individually or for set of orders.
The settings page has facility to sort the orders to be planned on the basis
of due date, order insertion sequence, priority, combination of due date
and priority and combination of insertion sequence and priority.
The priorities are created automatically while sorting and will be in the
multiple of 10.
The order having priority 10 will have highest priority and will be
planned first and as the number increases the order priority will decrease
and will be given preference sequentially during planning.
As mentioned earlier the orders can be sorted for planning purely on the
basis of due date, order insertion sequence and priority.

11. Planning Settings
The combination of due date and priority: The orders will be first sorted
on the basis of due date which will have some fixed priorities and these
can be altered specific to one or more orders to move them ahead or
behind while scheduling.
The combination of insertion sequence and priority: The orders will be
first sorted on the basis of insertion sequence which will have some fixed
priorities and these can be altered specific to one or more orders to move
them ahead or behind while scheduling.
To change the sort order of an order, in-between number of the priorities
can be chosen.

12. Planning Settings
As many iterations can be done for an order or set of an orders during
planning on the Gantt chart before finalizing the schedule.
The facility to un-plan an order or set of orders is provided on the
planning page itself so as to make it more user-friendly.
The orders can be scheduled on the basis of material availability or
tentative material availability date.
The types statuses of the orders in the system are Pending, Scheduled
and in process and complete.
The pending status indicates that the order is not taken for planning.
www.plantmanager.in Powered by
13. Settings Page
The option, not to schedule the orders for which material is not available
is also provided if required on the settings page.
The orders for which material is not available and are scheduled can be
swapped if the material does not come on the date already mentioned, by
number of days mentioned on the settings and the following order can be
preponed as and when required.

14. Gantt chart
The Gantt chart displays the resource, the process and the quantities to
be processed in corresponding duration.
The quantities mentioned on the Gantt chart are being reflected directly
on the production page which will enable the production department to
act on it directly as mentioned therein.
All orders are displayed with separate colors for easy identification.

15. Production Page
Since there are validations and compulsion to transfer the material from
one process to another process after its completion, there is complete
control over the production system and ultimately on the inventory.
The rescheduling of the orders scheduled can be done only if all the
production data inputs are given. Hence it is necessary to input all the
production data or mention the reasons if any to go for rescheduling.
The rework quantities will be rescheduled next day and new order will
be placed automatically for rejected quantities.

16. Other Important Features
Comparison of actual production against scheduled quantity on daily
basis at individual work stations
Daily, Weekly, Monthly reports on machine utilization ,employee output,
rework and rejection
Alerts to the corresponding team members in case of material stuck-up
Roles definition and Login/passwords.
Drawing attachment facility to have better control over the processes
