Each of these advanced BOM functions offers significant improvements to the configuration, planning, and manufacturing processes, providing a significant benefit to your business over other ERP solutions offerings.
Modifiable Work Orders
Recording what really happened on your manufacturing floor enables you to accurately track productivity and account for variances.
ALEREs works order can allow users to revise the route of a work order, edit the material lists, scrap WIP, account for additional material use, post byproducts, and more to work orders. All without starting the work order over or using a time-consuming administrative workaround.
Users can even selectively push updated material lists to inprocess work orders when changes are made to the originating bill of material.
Maximum flexibility with minimum effort makes the manufacturing process easier!
Repair Traceable Items
Could your company use the ability to easily receive a serial numbered or lot numbered item, issue it to a work order for repair or upgrade, and then return it to the customer under the original ID and never lose traceability? This seemingly difficult, hard-to-find, potentially expensive function is a standard feature in ALERE!
