Repetitive Manufacturing

With PeopleSoft Manufacturing, you can use repetitive methodology for the repeated production of the same products or families of products. You enter quantities for a day of the week, and the system determines the due date when the schedule is added, allowing you to sequence production throughout the day. You can create multiple schedule quantities per shift. You also have the option of adding a production schedule after you have completed manufacturing an item. This feature enables you to record completions for an assembly item. When you record completions, the system automatically creates the production schedule. Following backflushing, components are consumed and costs are posted for the completed quantity. The system collects costs and variances by day and shift for the production area and item combination.
