MRP & Purchase Planning

Priority’s Purchase Planning module determines material requirements (for both raw materials used in production and purchased items sold to customers) based on sales orders, open work orders, or frequency of need. Demands for parts are determined by material requirements planning (MRP). Purchase demands for parts that are acquired on a regular basis (e.g., supplies, goods produced for stock) are calculated in accordance with fixed user-designated requirements.

Purchase planning can be based on one of two planning processes:

• Material requirements planning (MRP) – planned production based on part parameters, bills of materials and factory modeling (disregarding resource capacity)
• Material requirements planning for distributors – issues planning on the basis of demand generated by sales and forecast orders (with no reference to bills of materials, production activity or assemblies)

Production Control

Priority’s Production Control module provides the means for handling production, from the maintenance of work orders, through the issue of materials to the floor (including issues to kits), to the reporting of finished jobs and the maintenance of plant-floor inventory (work in progress).

Engineering Change Orders

Priority’s Engineering Change Orders (ECO) module enables users to track engineering changes that were made during production of a part. For each change, users can document details of the change, the date of the change, parts that have been affected, and more. Users can also link part and BOM revisions to engineering changes. The system tracks those revisions that have been affected by the change, as well as work orders that have been opened in accordance with these revisions.

Delivery Scheduling

The Delivery Scheduling module enables you to plan the delivery of goods to customers by assigning distribution routes and delivery dates to sales orders. You can use Priority’s time-tested automatic scheduling algorithms, or schedule deliveries manually.

The Schedule Deliveries program assigns a sales order to a delivery according to its due date, the distribution route, the default days of the week the customer routinely receives deliveries, and the company’s operating hours.

You can also produce a Delivery Pick List report, which displays all sales orders scheduled for delivery, sorted by distribution route and date. This report is useful for company drivers as they distribute goods to customers.

Main features include:

• Definition of delivery routes and delivery orders by dates and rounds
• Automatic scheduling
• Sales invoices and shipping documents prepared according to delivery route

Warehouse Management System

Advanced Tools for Planning and Monitoring All Aspects of Warehouse Management

The strength of Priority’s Warehouse Management System is derived from its complete integration with Priority’s ERP system. This prevents inventory balance discrepancies and operational requirements mismatches between the ERP and WMS systems.

WMS-ERP Integration: Eliminating Data Synchronization Challenges

• No inventory balance discrepancies (or “mismatch”) between the ERP and WMS software. Full synchronization of inventory balances between an ERP system and an external WMS is rarely feasible, largely because of differences in how inventory attributes are maintained and used across the two systems.
• No mismatch of operational requirements that must be synchronized in real time, when data that are registered and maintained in the ERP have to be used by the WMS. Last-minute changes to work orders, assembly documents and service/maintenance requests can affect what parts are needed and where, inventory allocations may be revised or canceled on short notice, deliveries can be requested to a different shipping address, orders may be withheld for various reasons – in any of these and other scenarios, the real-time availability of enterprise data can have a tremendous impact on the efficiency of your WMS.

Additional Benefits of an Integrated WMS

• Incremental system initiation: With an integrated WMS, the move from the traditional warehouse system to the WMS can be gradual. For instance, the WMS can be initiated in a single isolated area in the warehouse at first. Alternatively, implementation can be started with a single warehouse activity (e.g. “pick”) and, once the first activity has been implemented successfully, you can proceed to manage other activities via the WMS.
• Incremental system shut-down: Warehouse management systems (integrated or separate) can suffer from erroneous data definitions that result in system malfunctions. Incremental shut-down capabilities are readily available in a fully integrated ERP/WMS solution. Main features include:

Picking and Shipping

• Picking or shipping waves can be created for specific customers, orders or order items.
• A wave of tasks can be created to pack ordered items in preparation for shipment.
• A wave of pick tasks can be created for orders, based on distribution route.Tasks can be limited to a maximum volume.

Replenishment

• Replenishment waves can be used to ensure sufficient inventory of fast-moving items in a given warehouse.
• Order-based replenishment waves are governed by stock level strategies, turnover strategies, storage area and more.
• Hot replenishment – instantaneous replenishment from a “next in line” storage bin, activated as soon as employees are confronted with an empty bin while performing a pick task.

Receiving & Put-Away

• Deliveries received at the docks are checked against the corresponding goods receiving voucher (GRV); this can be an Advanced Shipping Notice (ASN) or any other document covering the shipment.
• Palletization tasks are linked to corresponding line items in the GRV.Actual received quantities are compared to planned quantities in an automated report.Put-away tasks can be generated by part, part family, storage area, turnover or number of different SKU’s in the same location.

Traceability

• Dual units of measure (tasks can specify an exact weight or a number of crates).
• Upstream/downstream traceability of serialized parts from receipt through putaway, subsequent warehouse transfers, picking and eventual delivery.
• Lot genealogy keeps track of lot components and where they are used. Lot attributes are maintained when lots are split, merged or transferred within the organization.

Support for Mobile Devices, Barcode Labeling and RFID Tags

Give warehouse technicians anytime, anywhere access to relevant information from mobile devices, letting them make better-informed and more timely decisions while executing work assignments more efficiently. Provide real-time notification of assigned tasks and track execution as work is performed – reducing processing times and increasing warehouse efficiency.
