Capacity Planning

Using its resources and ongoing work orders, an organization uses capacity planning to decide whether or not to accept new orders.

Disable Capacity Planning Capacity planning won't be done if the box is checked. Enabling it will make it easier to make decisions about accepting new orders based on available resources and active work orders.

Allow Overtime Creating work orders, job cards, etc. outside of workstation working hours is permitted if it is enabled.

Allow Production on Holidays If enabled, it will permit production activities even on days that are designated as holidays according to the organization's holiday list.

Capacity Planning For (Days) The number of days shown here refers to the number of days before production that capacity planning activities will begin.

Time Between Operations (Mins) This indicates the amount of time, in minutes, that should be retained between two processes.

Over Production Allowance Percentage The system will only let production item quantity to be less than or equal to the quantity in the sales order when creating work orders against a sales order. You can add the Over Production Allowance % here if you want to permit the raising of more Work Orders.

Example: In some circumstances, a Workstation may need to produce 100 units, even though the Work Order only calls for 50. The Over Production Allowed Percentage in this scenario would be 100.

Default Work In Progress Warehouse Under the "Work In Progress" Warehouse field of Work Orders, this Warehouse will automatically be updated.

Default Finished Goods Warehouse The Target Warehouse field of the Work Order will automatically be updated with this Warehouse.

Allow Continuous Material Consumption If permitted, resources can be used up in a single Work Order without immediately producing final goods.

If one or more labor-intensive products are being produced, this is helpful. For instance, it takes a month to produce a single product, and raw materials are used every day. This won't be possible with stock entries in a typical case. By turning on this option, you won't need to generate an entry to backflush when creating stock entries for material consumption. As a result, you may update the final manufacture record for finished goods at a later time and watch the stock being used up in the warehouses.

Backflush raw materials based on The following technique will be used to backflush raw materials: 1. Transfer of Materials for Manufacturing 2. BOM

Add Corrective Operation Cost in Finished Good Valuation When determining finished goods valuation, the cost of a corrective operation type will be added if it is enabled.

Update BOM Cost Automatically If selected, the BOM cost will be updated automatically depending on the most recent raw material purchase rate, price list rate, and valuation rate.

Allow Excess Material Transfer If enabled, the Material Transfer button will be visible and let you transfer raw materials even if the job card's requirement for raw materials has already been satisfied.

This is very helpful when transferring extra raw materials in order to manufacture the same quantity of final items as envisaged because the transferred raw materials were damaged.

Make Serial No/Batch from Work Order If selected, upon submission of the Work Order, the system will automatically generate the serial numbers and batches for the finished goods.
