Acumatica Production Scheduling Software
The new 2017 R2 Acumatica Manufacturing Edition helps manufacturers manage the order-to-production-to-cash process. Acumatica production scheduling software helps production planning based on historical sales and adjusts the production plans. Manufacturers can easily factor in and respond to such external drivers such as changing market conditions, new products, aging products, etc.
Benefits of Acumatica Production Scheduling Software
- Production Planning – Simplify production planning and get suggestions on which components to purchase and when. In addition, production planning helps balance on-hand inventory with customer demand while also avoiding shortages and helps limit carrying excess materials.
- Smart Analysis – Acumatica’s production scheduling software features really kick in when the system automatically analyzes the on-hand quantities of sub-assemblies. Finished goods are accurately tracked and compared to the production plan. This analysis triggers suggested production orders to meet the requirements of the end-item forecast. Users can check for shortages as they release production orders. It also helps manage the production process so it’s as efficient as possible. The Sales department has the visibility it needs to make sure finished goods are available for customer orders.
- Costing from Various Sources – Costs are captured in the purchasing and production cycles for things like materials, labor and various types of overhead. As a result, users can break down budget and actual costs by work center so that production managers have visibility into work center loads and cost drivers.
- Real-time Inventory Tracking – All production transactions trigger corresponding inventory transactions in real time. Also, real-time tracking helps ensure that inventory levels are accurately reflected for planning purposes. Sales can accurately set expectations to customers for realistic on-time delivery dates.
- The Right Data for Decision Makers – Acumatica provides information to users directly and provides data to external reporting tools. Therefore, managers and decision makers are empowered to keep tabs on the entire production process.
