What benefits can you gain from implementing Production One?

Companies looking to lower their operational and engineering cost, and improve quality control of job related and production based orders will find Production One to be a valuable addition to SAP Business One. Production One allows the tracking of detailed production routing steps, job progress scheduling, and job costing with all labor, overhead, outside services and materials used. Production One allows SAP Business One users to create a production order right from the sales order screen. It can also estimate the delivery date in order to set correct expectations.

Production One APS - A world class Upgrade.

Advanced Planning & Scheduling

Production One APS utilizes the Gantt view from base Production One and takes finite production planning in SAP Business One to a new level. It allows simultaneous scheduling of machines, labor, and tooling. Plus with dynamic inventory allocation and multi-level pegging, your scheduling will be truly realistic and incredibly easy to manage.

Production One APS is one of the most powerful and easy-to-use Advanced Planning systems available. It quickly produces extremely accurate schedules, which simultaneously take into account machine, labor, tooling, and inventory constraints. Production One APS for SAP Business One incorporates changes made to orders, resources, inventory, routings, and bills of material automatically, resulting in schedules that are always up-to-date.  Planners can perform “what-if” analyses to see the impact of proposed schedule changes, so to avoid making costly mistakes. Any changes can then be easily evaluated with the Impact Monitor, and undone if/when necessary.
