Benefits

  • The system avoids over-planning of resources and excess labor costs.
  • Costed sales forecast report shows the profit impact of the current schedule.
  • Uses infinite planning time periods (bucketless) so reports can be viewed with several weeks of firm demand and several months or years of forecast demand.
  • MRP and CRP only use data coming from the Production Schedule system so no additional data entry is needed and MRP only reflects the latest schedule.
  • Regenerative logic works best for high-volume, repetitive manufacturers who receive a new schedule every week and has a defined bill of materials.
  • CRP takes into consideration current work-in-process quantities and looks at the process routing and bills of material to plan capacity requirements.
