Benefit
Description
Dimensional item management
Bi-directional materials tracking
Improve upstream and downstream traceability when you can track goods by lot, batch, and serial number, and link finished goods back to components and suppliers through item BOMs.
Flexible BOMs
Streamline planning and increase production agility by using neutral BOMs that enable production and materials planning independent of variables such as size, color, or color-way.
Adaptive production management
Increase efficiency and respond quickly to changes with multi-line manufacturing orders, flexible and alternative routings, and reprocessing management. Support either push or pull production policies and integrate subcontractor routings and management into planning and logistics.
Tailored customer order capabilities
Streamline order entry by creating multiple order types, such as collection and showroom orders, and opening blanket orders with truncated codes for later specification. Accommodate multiple shipment addresses and delivery dates per order and save time making mass modifications in existing or blanket orders.
Quality assurance support
Integrate quality grading processes and information into the production and supply chain. Allocate products of various grades to different distribution channels and gain insight into grade costs and profitability.
Integrated shipping
Define and meet customer requirements for put-up options, labeling, unitizing, and documentation. Reduce errors and speed billing and reconciliation with item and shipment information fully integrated into invoicing and accounting processes.
Inventory management
Maintain multiple material status indicators and improve inventory management with comprehensive tracking of materials and finished goods, including samples, off-site deposits such as trade show or showroom stocks, multiple real and virtual warehouses, and wholesale or distributor inventories.
Supply chain management
Increase supply chain visibility, monitor subcontractor performance, and collaborate effectively. Incorporate supply partners into costing and routing decisions, share demand and inventory information in real time, and offer trade partners security-enhanced, self-service access to key business processes through familiar Web browsers.
Price lists
Access integrated cost information to easily generate price lists for finished goods of various quality grades, sizing, and quantities, and create and maintain special promotional, trade show, or showroom pricing.
Multiple units of measure and conversions
Streamline and automate measurement conversions based on algorithms for improved accuracy and consistency.
