- of Accounting, PO/Inventory, Job Costing, and Job Shop Scheduling applications

-
- The Job Shop Scheduling system consists of Estimating, Scheduling, and Costing
- modules, and is designed to enable on-time completion of work orders based on
- actual variable capacity. Scheduling calculates the start date needed to meet
- customer specified due date (reverse schedule). Will also forward schedule from
- the start date giving actual completion date. Capacity files are maintained per
- machine based on 0-24 hours of capacity per day. Supports multiple priority
- calculations controlled by user. Costing module updates work order history file
- with time ticket information to allow reporting of estimated vs. actual costs.
- Estimating module calculates work order cost, eliminating manual arithmetic
- errors, and allows the use of a previous estimate as an example. Work orders
- originating from estimating can be moved into scheduling without reentry, and
- updated for desired production quantity and due date.
