Forecasting/MRP

Forecasting/MRP allows integration of the Sales Order, Purchase Order, Inventory and Work Order Processing modules to provide a single page look at current activities across the entire organization in up to 52 time periods.

Forecasts can be created from historical information captured in the history of the Inventory module or can be created from spreadsheet or input calculations from outside sources. These Forecasts can be created for individual sku's, or whole catagories at a time. Once the forecast has been created, it can be exploded into is individual elements to test capacity and timing elements of the forecast.

Forecasts can be coupled with pplanning work orders or with live work orders and sales orders to generate a comprehensive picture of the material and sub assembly requirements needed.

Use of the auto generate feature allows automatic creation of work orders for assemblies or purchse requisitions (Requires OSAS Purchase Order) for materials. Both of these generate programs are created to allow more time in making decisions and less time in punching enty keys.
