Although you can purchase Oracle’s Global Order Promising software, we developed a more cost effective approach to proving prospects and customers with capable to promise information at sales order entry time. Everyone knows JDE provides available to promise information. However, if you are make to order, or you don’t have product in stock at the moment, how do you tell a prospect or customer what when you are capable of promising product, without just quoting standard lead times. Standard lead times are usually longer than what you can really do. We developed a way to look at cumulative manufacturing and purchase lead times, capacities, and quantities on hand of component parts to give customer service people more accurate dates to promise product to customers. This is helping turn prospects into customers and keep existing customers. And we improved the ability to ship on time.

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.
