Manufacturing

Connect bills of materials, routings and production planning to material use, operation confirmations, quality, finished output and production cost.

What you will learn
  • Explain product definitions, resource capacity and material-planning proposals.
  • Distinguish production release, material use, confirmation, quality decisions and receipt.
  • Interpret production cost, work in progress, subcontracting and factory-floor indicators.
