Customer Introduction:
A leading french company in metal packaging, with factory in Udupi, have chosen OurSys ERP for their operations. They manufacture closures, cans, aerosol cans, industrial packaging and decorated & personalised tin boxes.
Problem / Goal:
The production figures for the first few operations are in "sheets" whereas later it is in "pieces". Initially OurSys did not have the provision to capture production in different units of measurement (UoM).
The Solution:
We provided a feature to define UoM and it's conversion factor for each process in the process layout.
For example we defined "sheets" as the UoM for "Coating" process and defined 1 sheet = 20 nos. of finished product. We then provided to capture production in terms of "sheets" and converted automatically to it's default UoM, "pieces".
The Result / Benefits:
Now it is not required to split the job order if the UoM changed. After this feature, a huge amount of data entry has been saved.
This solution also fits the scenario where the weight of the job varies for every process and there are multiple outsourced operations which are billed in terms of weight.
At OurSys we stretch our limits everyday to provide such solutions to our customers.
