Get the Full Picture With Production Management Software

Production Management Software is where it all comes together. Your software must be able to tell you today’s production status, what is going to happen next and what happened yesterday. The Production Management Software application is up to the task. Online inquiry into existing production orders shows percentage complete based on time and materials, and gives you detailed status information for each production process.

Once you create them, you can edit production orders via the visual editor in a drill-down manner. You can import activity data from an external source such as an automated time card or bar code data collection system, or you can enter it manually.

A variety of worksheets assist you in this process. Each one has a specific focus in terms of what to pull, which operation to run and where to go next. Special worksheets help expedite subcontracted processes.
