Serial/Lot effectivity
You also gain the capability to incorporate Serial/Lot effectively in MRP. Macola's advanced Material Planning will validate Serial/Lot expiration dates while netting on-hand inventory quantities.
High probability quotes
Customer quotes with a high probability of becoming orders can be easily included in your MRP planning, giving you a more accurate assessment of your future planning and financial picture.
Material planner
With the Material Planner, you can view specific exceptions, or a group of exceptions, triggered by the regeneration. This provides the buyer/analyst an interactive environment to not only view the exceptions, but also be able to take action on those exceptions. All this is done through a single interface that will allow computer planned orders to be converted to purchase orders and replenishment orders very efficiently. Where there is a need to expedite an order or change the quantity, the planner allows you to change them on your request one at a time or in a group. |
