MFX Manufacturing Execution System (MES) Components
Shipping Schedule Module
Overview
Always know what customer orders are coming up, what orders are filled and what orders are worked on. Manage daily operations including logistics, production planning and production off of your aggregate demand schedule. Our system lets you see operate off of customer orders or customer and stock orders. From the time an order is placed to the time it's filled and shipped, you can see the fulfilment cycle in real-time. Cross-functional teamwork is enabled by a common set of data and common goals.
SSM begins where the traditional ERP Order Management functions end. It’s not about maintaining orders. It’s about having a proper workflow for daily operations in Logistics, Customer Service, Production Planning, and Production Control. When internal departments do their work based on customer orders, the entire Order-to-Cash process becomes very easy to trace and to tune. We have helped our customers achieve quicker turnaround, improved visibility, improved quality and increased employee satisfaction. This module is key to bringing the right information to the plant operations. It is one of the core modules of our system.
