Infor LX & BPCS Manufacturing Tip of the Week: Backward Scheduling

George Moroses 0 31127 Article rating: 5.0

Operations are automatically backward scheduled at shop order release time. The backward scheduling algorithm starts with the shop order due date and schedules each operation based upon the standard move and queue times in the routings and the number of days the job is expected to run at standard. The system calculates and stores the operation scheduled start date. The dates may be modified by the shop order maintenance program.

"Apologies, boss, but at the moment, we are unable to contribute to advancing the business."

Infor LX | BPCS | Infor LN | Baan

Imagine delivering this message to your boss or the company president. What would their response likely be? It's improbable that they would respond with, "That's perfectly fine; we can delay implementing this significant initiative that could potentially save us a substantial amount of money and give us a competitive edge. Please let us know when you have the availability to work on it." In reality, they would probably want you to add this new task to your already overflowing to-do list, wouldn't they?

Nonetheless, you'd probably comply because it's the responsible thing to do and it's crucial for the company. But what happens to all the other tasks you were initially supposed to work on? They end up lingering on your to-do list indefinitely.

But what if they didn't have to remain in limbo? What if you could shift your focus to critical projects that propel the business forward while still managing the lower-priority tasks that still need attention? This is where outsourced IT and ERP support services come into play.

Managing ERP systems is undeniably intricate and time-intensive, and staying ahead of issues to identify, prevent, and resolve them before they escalate is essential. Can you truly afford to set aside this critical work for something else?

Crossroads RMC offers a comprehensive range of support services, ensuring round-the-clock coverage, 365 days a year, to handle the most challenging support issues, right down to the most routine ones. Our services encompass everything from software updates and maintaining highly customized environments to diagnosing financial integration errors and investigating discrepancies between your production output and inventory records.
