One company’s decision to convert all their business systems over from SKU based processing to using the JD Edwards Configurator. This had huge impact on sales order processing, product data management, and manufacturing shop floor control. It also effected EDI processing of customer orders. However, the product data management process on orders of never before sold configurations of Medeco’s product was greatly improved. Was it worth the effort of setting up the JDE Configurator? Come find out as we explain the journey we took to convince management of the investment, explained it to customers, and retrained the customer service department on the order entry process.

Case study demonstration / review of the custom applications created to replace traditional scanning software. Trisha Muir, Michelman Director of ERP long realized status quo batch work order processing had to be improved. One primary reason was the need to improve visibility to the necessary PPE, hazards and process instructions before starting to manufacture a batch and capturing the acknowledgement from the operator. Michelman was able to add validations within the process to minimize waste, improve safety metrics, and reduce off-spec batches resulting in cost savings. Sustainability is one of Michelman’s core values; digitizing the paper work order helps them to achieve their goal of reducing the use of paper globally.

Functionality includes full Work Order Edit of: Parts List, Process Instructions & Quality Tests with improved automation of Machine/Labor hours and Quality test data. Other functional elements include Audit, Inventory Look-up, Inventory Transfer, enhanced Media Object Integration and the ability to store “Comments” and “Versioning” of Media Object revisions.

Demo review will show User Role setup/permissions for Chemists, Quality, Operators, and Supervisor with dashboards associated to each role. Trisha will also review Michelman business case.

Firm or planned demand requirements enable you to receive, interpret, or validate, net order information for shipments, and to automatically communicate shipment details to the supplier or customer. The system interprets and receives information using EDI documents that are transmitted from customers to suppliers, and then populates the appropriate demand scheduling tables to create records within sales orders, and forecasts. Forecasted schedules are transmitted from the manufacturer or distributor to the supplier to cover a future period and are formatted as a series of year-to-date cumulative totals. You can use this information for forecasting and planning when ordering parts and materials in high volume supply chains
