Fabrication

Production planning, shop-floor integration and costing for fabrication, make-to-order and make-to-stock plants.

Typical use cases

Fabrication plants usually mix make-to-order and make-to-stock, and the cost has to follow the job. Planning, the shop floor and product cost sit on S/4HANA so the plant and finance see the same order.

Planning against real capacity

MRP and capacity planning in S/4HANA, so a promised date is based on what the plant can actually run.

The shop floor on the order

MES and machine data connected to SAP PP, so order status is not kept in a separate sheet.

Cost that follows the job

Product costing and variance analysis that stay with the production order through the close.

The drawing on the order

Drawings, inspection reports and customer specs in iDMS, linked to the production order they belong to.

Maintenance the plan can see

Plant maintenance orders visible to planning, so a promised date accounts for the line that is down.

Scrap and rework on the job

Scrap, rework and yield posted against the order, so the variance is explained before the close.
