Tick-Tock... It's time to get more out of your ERP

As crazy as it sounds, we’re about to enter the 2nd half of 2024. How are you doing on your 2024 goals? Planning for 2025 projects?

Maybe it's time to get more out of your Infor ERP system.

⇒⇒ TIME TO UPGRADE?

Is an upgrade to the latest version of your ERP the goal for 2024/2025? If so, Crossroads RMC brings 40 years of industry experience to the table to ensure that your upgrade achieves the results you’re looking for and does so on time and within budget.

Crossroads RMC's team of expert consultants will:

  • Review your custom components to see what can be eliminated
  • Provide an analysis of the specific benefits that your company can achieve by upgrading
  • Train your users on the latest functionality
  • Support your users on the old version while the project team focuses on the upgrade project
  • Handle the entire upgrade project from start to finish
  • Supplement your existing project team with 1-2 key resources
  • Develop the integration to that 3rd party system that is a MUST-HAVE when you upgrade

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Two big sources of inefficiencies in manufacturing are paper and spreadsheets. I know that you love ‘em, but they are the cause of more problems than you probably realize. Think of how long it takes you to get paper based data into the hands of those who can do something valuable with the data. Are you capturing all of the information correctly? Timely? What about those spreadsheets? Can everyone access that information across your organization? Is that data married with all of the related data regarding your operations to give your executive and middle management the information they need when they need it?

Make your shop floor paperless and put in place systems that talk to one another and automatically pull and push data to and from your ERP so that you can look in one place for all the information you need to run your business effectively.

If you’re not doing this today, you might as well be burning money.

Ok… so you want to know the status of a specific shop order that was released two days ago.

What do you do?

It’s a sure bet that you have a manager, supervisor, or planner who can walk the floor and find the order at whatever work center it happens to be at. He/she can then answer “what operations have been completed and how many were completed?” All this requires leg work, and of course, a fair amount of time.

Now, if you have setup your BPCS master files properly, and you report transaction activity, you should be able to get those shop order statuses much faster using the SFC300 Shop Order Inquiry Screen.

At your fingertips you can see:

  • Release date & due date
  • How many hours remain in total and at each operation
  • The quantity required, what was finished and the remaining quantity
  • What components (materials) have been issued

Pretty basic information, right? Are you getting what you need to know? If not, then you may want to reexamine how your BPCS files are setup and what transactions along with their frequency are captured.
