systems experience

Consona Corporation, Relevant Business
Systems, Inc
5. The ERP 101 Series Until Now
• ERP controls the material supplies required to meet customer
demands
– Engineering, Inventory, Purchasing and Product Masters
– Bill of Material calls out specific demands by product
– Revision and/or ECO’s make sure demands are based on current
configurations
• ERP also controls demands on capacity
– Shop Floor setup defines work centers, processes, machines and people,
all required to move product through manufacturing
Let’s take a closer look at what we covered in our last session….
6. A Quick Recap of the Last Episode
Our last webinar focused on building the shop floor
database.
• Routings like BOMS, but bill of resources instead
of material
• Used to plan required time, not parts
• Provide quantity of time needed for single
assembly, including setup, run and machine
times
• ERP uses this information for capacity planning,
similar to how MRP calculates material needs .
But why do we need Capacity Planning?
7. Why You Need Capacity Planning
Over-scheduled resources
• Why does this matter? Creates bottleneck and
required work will not be done.
• Knowledge of this issue allows scheduler to
balance work load.
Under-scheduled resources
• Why does this matter? Cost, availability.
• Allows scheduler to make most use of resources
to even the load.
ERP Shop Floor Capacity tools allow the scheduler
to quickly balance the load.
9. How Is This Modeled in ERP?
Think about how ERP helps us plan material
• Accurate bills of material provide quantities
– Quantity of component to build 1 parent
– Additional quantity needed to cover scrap, setup, EOQ,
etc.
Apply same logic to building the item
• How much time is required at each work center?
• Is that time absolute, or modified by other factors?
• Consider breaks, lunch, other down-time
• Planned or unplanned work center maintenance
Time to see real-life example of Capacity Planning tools as
evidence of how this works
10. Defining a Work Center
1. Length of day determines overall capacity for this work center for 1 operator.
2. Capacity is defined in hours for labor and/or machines, times number of operators. So, two
operators would indicate a capacity of 16 hours in this example.
3. Hours can be modified by factor so scheduling does not over-schedule.
Now let’s see how the work center is used in the routing for the Handlebar assembly.
11. Routing Master for Handlebar Assembly
• Time to build one parent is defined:
– Setup, Run, Machine, for each
operation.
• Consider similarities between routing
and bom.
– BOM handles material needs to build 1
parent
– Routings handle time needs to build 1
parent
– Both use factors to ‘adjust’ the
demands
Foundation for capacity planning in place,
but how are work center demands
planned?
12. Work Order for Handlebar Assembly
A Work Order is created to provide:
1. Quantity of parent item to be built. This is used by Capacity Planning as a multiplier.
2. Due date used to determine when operations need to be completed, so, when is the actual
demand on each work center?
Now let’s look at the scheduling tool itself
13. Running Capacity Planning
• Choose Work Orders to be Scheduled (procedure varies by ERP system)
• Run or ‘Process’ Work Order Scheduling to create demand on each work center
specified in the Routing for quantity defined on the work order.
Once the work orders are scheduled, how does the planner see the results and make
any changes that may be required?
14. Capacity Planning Workbench
• Rootstock provides a very detailed workbench that not only displays the current schedule by work
center/work order, but also allows the planner to reschedule as needed
• Quickly find ‘problem’ areas
• Color-coded format
• Drag and drop provides quick re-scheduling to smooth out the load so that customer due dates can be
met.
We have taken a very high look at the planning tools, but, hopefully, this has demonstrated how ERP both
collects data and then uses it to help plan the shop floor.
15. Where Do We Go From Here?
We’ve covered Bills of Material and Routings, but what else does the
ERP system touch?
• Work Orders.
– Typically created by MRP, work orders are SUPPLIES of manufactured items
(subassemblies and final assemblies) needed to satisfy customer
requirements.
– Work Orders provide MRP and Capacity planning ‘demands’ on the system
for materials and shop floor capacity.
• Order Entry
– Feeds the ‘demand’ side of ERP
– Maintains customers, products, orders, etc.
• Purchasing
– Provides the ‘supply’ side of ERP for purchased parts
– Maintains vendors, purchased items and orders
• And much more…..

INTRO SCRIPT:
Good Morning everyone, and welcome to today's webinar sponsored by Rootstock SoftwareOur last topic was “Shop Floor – Explore how ERP is used to create and maintain Work Centers, Routings and Procedures.”
This is the fifth webinar in our ERP101 webinar series. Our topic today is “Shop Floor – See how scheduling the Shop Floor through ERP controls Labor and Machines.” Moving on to some housekeeping.Before we get started, I’d like to go over a few items so you know how to participate in today’s event. We've taken a screen shot of an example of the Attendee interface. You should see something that looks like this on your own computer desktop in the upper-right corner.
You’re listening-in using your computer's speaker system by default. If you prefer to join over the phone, just select “Telephone” in the Audio pane and the dial-in information will be displayed. All attendees will be on mute throughout the presentation. You’ll have the opportunity to submit text questions to today’s presenter by typing your questions into the Questions pane of the control panel. You may send in your questions at any time during the presentation; we will collect these and address them during the Q&A session at the end of today’s presentation.
Now we’ll take a look at our upcoming schedule. Today we will be covering “Shop Floor – See how scheduling the Shop Floor through ERP controls Labor and Machines.” The next webinar in the ERP 101 Webinar Series by Rootstock Software is scheduled for November 29th and will cover the topic “Procurement – Link your Vendors and Purchased Parts via ERP.” Future webinar dates are to be announced.
ABOUT PRESENTER :I would now like to introduce our Presenter, David Bush, Senior Manufacturing Consultant at Rootstock Software.
David Bush has 30+ years of manufacturing and MRP/ERP systems experience. David was previously at General Microcircuits, Consona Corporation, and Relevant Business Systems.
David will now introduce us to our ERP 101 webinar “Shop Floor – See how scheduling the Shop Floor through ERP controls Labor and Machines.”
Hi David…

Q&A SCRIPT:Thank you David, that was impressive!
Before we go to your questions, just a quick reminder this webinar will be posted on our website at www.rootstock.com. And of course after the webinar if you have any further inquiries, please email us at marketing@rootstock.com.
We’ll now answer questions submitted during today’s presentation as well as take any new questions – And just a reminder, you can still submit questions through the Questions pane in your attendee control panel.
Our first question today is…..
1. You mentioned using a 'factor' to consider down time on a work center. Why not just put in a single number of hours that are actually available and forget the math?
2. How does ERP handle run time that is for the entire work order amount instead of for each piece, like, for example, heat treating?
3. Should packaging and shipping time be included in the routing?
Before we end today’s webinar, I’d like to present a brief look ahead at the upcoming topics in our ERP 101 Webinar series.
Today we covered “Shop Floor – See how scheduling the Shop Floor through ERP controls Labor and Machines.” The next webinar in the ERP 101 Webinar Series by Rootstock Software is scheduled for November 29th and will cover the topic “Procurement – Link your Vendors and Purchased Parts via ERP.” Future webinar dates are to be announced.
Thank you for joining us today. We look forward to seeing you at our next webinar.
Today’s webinar is now over.
