Plan Production from BOM to Work Order Creation
Production Plans bridge the gap between sales demand and the shop floor. Add items to produce, sourced manually or from sales orders, and the plan calculates everything you need to manufacture and procure. Create work orders for the full product hierarchy in one action, generate purchase requests for raw materials, and track live production progress and actual costs all from one page.
Everything You Need to Plan Manufacturing
Production Plans connect demand to execution. From material requirements to nested work orders and real-time cost tracking, every step of manufacturing planning is handled in one place.
Multi-stage BOM Explosion
Calculate exact production and procurement needs from sales demand, accounting for current stock levels automatically.
Nested Work Order Creation
Create parent and child work orders for entire product hierarchies in one action, fully linked and ready.
Purchase Request Generation
Convert raw material requirements into purchase requests directly from the plan for timely procurement.
Live Manufacturing Progress
Track real-time production progress, job card status, and actual cost breakdowns per plan item.
Manage every manufacturing plan in one view
Get a centralized view of all your production plans, from initial drafts to active production runs and completed plans. Each plan shows its current stage in the manufacturing lifecycle, making it easy to identify which plans need action and which are progressing smoothly.
Plan production from sales demand to raw materials
Building a production queue means balancing delivery commitments, material availability, and existing stock. The production plan walks you through it step by step, so you know exactly what to manufacture and procure before committing to the shop floor.
Full material visibility across every level
See the complete production plan across all levels: items to manufacture, sub-assemblies that need to be built, and every raw material required to fulfil the plan. Live procurement status tracks what has been requested, ordered, and received for each material, giving you end-to-end visibility from plan creation through to material arrival.
Initiate production in one action
Create work orders for your entire product hierarchy at once: parent orders for finished goods, child orders for every sub-assembly, all fully linked and ready for the shop floor.
Push job cards to the shop floor
Once work orders are in process, generate job cards for every operation in bulk. Set quantities per operation, validate production sequences, and get operators working immediately, without manual card-by-card setup.
Bridge planning and procurement
Convert material requirements into purchase requests directly from the plan. Stay in control of what you procure, in the right quantities, with full traceability.
Track actual production costs
As production runs, actual costs accumulate across every work order, giving management a clear picture of real spend versus estimates, with full traceability down to individual movements.
Compare planned vs actual schedules
See which operations ran on time, which finished early, and which fell behind. Planned schedules are compared against actual production outcomes across every work order, helping management identify recurring bottlenecks and calibrate future production estimates.
From Sales Demand to Shop Floor Execution
Production Plans eliminate the gap between what was sold and what gets made. Material requirements are calculated automatically, work orders track exactly what to produce, and cost breakdown shows exactly what was spent, closing the loop from planning to completion.
