JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Shop Floor Management Overview
A shop floor management system plays a key role in managing the flow of materials inside the plant. An effectively implemented shop floor management system serves as a mediator between production control and the shop floor. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Shop Floor Management system from Oracle provides an effective way to maintain and communicate information that the system requires to complete production requests.
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Shop Floor Management enables you to manage and track manufacturing work orders. It uses data from the shop floor to maintain and communicate status information regarding materials, work centers, routing instructions, and end operations that are required to complete the production requests. A traditional shop floor uses dispatch lists, capacity requirements, finite scheduling, capacity planning, capacity simulation, and optimization. Some companies might also use bar coding, kanban, and just-in-time manufacturing processes on the shop floor. With JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Shop Floor Management, you can:
Create and process work orders, including attaching things like parts lists, routing instructions, co-products and by-products, and intermediate items.
Process lots, including lots of products in the process industry, such as food, chemical, and pharmaceutical products.
