About this talk

Bring the future into closer focus If you are like most manufacturers today, managing your planning and scheduling resources has become a major challenge. The disrupted supply chain, workforce availability, equipment capacity, sporadic market demand, and changing customer expectations all contribute to the complexities of planning. Having the right resources available is essential for keeping production flowing and ensuring customers receive orders on time. In this session we will focus on Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) capabilities within CloudSuite Industrial. Our Infor expert will share: - What APS is, how it varies from traditional Manufacturing Resource Planning and the difference between Planning and Scheduling within CSI. - The basic configuration requirements needed to effectively utilize APS and available-to-promise/capable-to-promise (ATP/CTP) functionality. We'll also look at the key differences between these solutions - Examples of advanced applications that help identify accurate and reliable commitment dates.
