Production schedule

Transcription

Why production scheduling is necessary? First, let's set it so that "A" will be produced by the "Cut" process in 4 days, by the "Press" process in 3 days and by the "Inspection" process in 3 days. Set "Nov 14th" as the [Due date] for Item "A", and "10" as [Order quantity]. Press the [Reschedule] button As it is scheduled with infinite capacity the total lead time is 4+3+3=10 days. The start date is Nov 4th. Here, let's copy the order to make it two orders. Press the [Reschedule] button With an infinite resource capacity and fixed lead time, the two orders don't interfere with each other, so the schedules become the same. The red bar indicates that operations are overlapping. Then, let's schedule it with finite capacity. Set "Finite capacity" as [Assignment type] in [Schedule parameter settings]. Then, set "3hp", which means 3h per item as [Production] time in the [Integrated master editor]. Press the [Reschedule] button. As the [Order quantity] is 10, the production lead time is 30h+30h+30h=90h. Since we have scheduled with finite capacity, considering the process capacity, the operations are not overlapping. As we scheduled backwards from the due date, we can make a just-in-time schedule for shortening lead time and reducing inventory. Let's try to schedule forward by setting Order 1 to a rush order with [Priority] 99. Order 1 will be scheduled to start and end as early as possible. As a result, it allows us to give our clients a fast and accurate answer about a possible delivery date. As an example of the sudden changes of due date, let's change the due date of "order 2" from the 14th to 12th. Press the [Reschedule] button. As a result, we can see that it will be completed just before the due date if we start it at 6:00 on the 8th. Then, set "Nov 8th" as [Holiday] for Cut process by right-clicking. On this occasion, we can see that it will be completed just before the due date if we start it at 6:00 on the 7th by rescheduling. Then, the computer will quickly deal with the increases in items, orders, processes and facilities. On the other hand, if we make a schedule manually or with Excel, with the increase in data volume and complexity, it becomes difficult and even impossible for employees to handle the task.
