Steelman Steel Enterprise Management System - Steelman Steel Enterprise Management System

The user is able to create production transactions for each inventory item (tag) that is reserved against a production order. Each transaction will record the actual star t and end time for processing the selected tag, and calculate the actual run time and delay time.

• Automatically calculates the resulting theoretical weight, shape and dimensions of the output piece(s) based on production order data.
• The user will be able to override the calculated values if there is a discrepancy, or if measured values are not available.
• Tag numbers for any resulting child items will be created automatically.
• Multiple production orders can be in progress simultaneously at the same work center, and production orders will be allowed to remain open indefinitely.
• Provides a “Finalize Production Run” function for the user to summarize the production results for all production orders in progress.
• Automatically distributes cost of production upon finalizing a production run, or upon closing the only open production order.
• Calculates the total input weight and cost (including production costs) during the production run.
• Calculates the output weight(s) for all open production orders (including scrap) during the run.
• For any produced material with a fixed cost (such as scrap), assign the fixed cost. Fixed cost categories will be defined in user-defined tables.
• For any remaining produced material, distribute the input cost less the fixed costs (as described above) by weight.
• Reserves the resulting pieces against the appropriate downstream work order step.
• User-override any of the calculated data or allocations based on actual results, create additional resulting pieces, delete selected pieces and assign any leftover weight to scrap or stock.
• Allocates scrap to one or more scrap classification codes.
• User assigned disposition to any of the resulting pieces.
• The default disposition and grade will match the disposition and grade of the input item.
• Once the user has reviewed the resulting pieces and their allocations, the transaction can be posted to inventory.
• Allows for any number of digital photographs to be attached to a production order either during or after processing.
