This chapter covers the following topics:
Oracle Manufacturing Execution System for Discrete Manufacturing (MES for Discrete) provides "enhanced" shop floor execution capabilities to enable discrete manufacturers to deploy directly as the Manufacturing Execution System (MES) on their shop floor. Focusing on improving the productivity of the shop floor operator and supervisor, MES for Discrete Manufacturing provides rich, out of the box capabilities to perform their daily tasks. The product enables shop floor operators and supervisors to perform, record, and monitor shop floor activities in a highly efficient and effective manner in addition to providing key performance and status indicators for the shop floor. Most importantly, the MES for Discrete Manufacturing application facilitates the removal of non value-added activities on the shop floor and helps maximize shop floor productivity.
This section provides information on the common prerequisites, profile options, and data setups required for executing the Oracle Discrete Manufacturing Execution Systems flows. Flow specific requirements are documented along with the flow in the subsequent sections.
