Capacity Planning

Capacity planning involves the organizational process of determining whether to accept new orders based on the available resources and current work orders.

Disable Capacity Planning

If enabled, capacity planning will not be performed. This option assists in determining whether to accept new orders based on available resources and existing work orders.

Allow Overtime

If enabled it’ll allow creating work orders, job cards etc. outside workstation working hours.

Allow Production on Holidays

If activated, production activities will be permitted even on days designated as holidays according to the organization’s Holiday List.

Capacity Planning For (Days)

If activated, production activities will be permitted even on days designated as holidays according to the organization’s Holiday List.

Time Between Operations (Mins)

This specifies the time span that should be kept between two operations in minutes.

Over Production Allowance Percentage

When creating Work Orders against a Sales Order, the system restricts the production item quantity to be equal to or less than the quantity specified in the Sales Order. If you want to permit Work Orders with a greater quantity, you can specify the Over Production Allowance Percentage here.

For instance, if a Workstation needs to manufacture 100 units for cost-effectiveness, but the Work Order is for 50 units, you will set the Over Production Allowance Percentage to 100 in this scenario.

Default Work in Progress Warehouse

This Warehouse will be auto updated in the ‘Work in Progress’ Warehouse field of Work Orders.

Default Finished Goods Warehouse

This Warehouse will be auto-updated in the ‘Target Warehouse’ field of Work Order.

Allow Continuous Material Consumption

If activated, materials can be used without an immediate production of finished goods within a single Work Order.

This feature is particularly beneficial when manufacturing time-consuming products. For instance, if a product requires a month for manufacturing and raw materials are consumed daily, it wouldn’t be practical to handle this through regular stock entries. Enabling this option permits creating stock entries for Material Consumption without the need for an immediate backflush entry. As a result, you can track the consumption of stock in the Warehouses and update the final manufacture entry for finished goods at a later time.

Backflush raw materials based on

The method selected here will be chosen for backflushing raw materials:

1. Material Transferred for Manufacture

2. BOM

Add Corrective Operation Cost in Finished Good Valuation

If activated, the cost associated with a corrective operation type will also be factored into the calculation of finished goods valuation.

Update BOM Cost Automatically

If selected, the BOM cost will be automatically adjusted according to the Valuation Rate, Price List Rate, or the last purchase rate of raw materials.

Allow Excess Material Transfer

If activated, the “Material Transfer” button will be accessible, enabling the transfer of raw materials even after the requirement for raw materials against a Job Card has been met.

This feature is beneficial in situations where transferred raw materials become damaged, necessitating the transfer of additional raw materials to produce the intended quantity of finished goods.

Make Serial No/Batch from Work Order

If checked, system will automatically create the serial numbers / batches for finished goods on submission of Work Order.
