In addition to assigning lot numbers in Shop Order Entry/Maintenance (SFC500) after the shop orders have been released, users can now pre-assign lot numbers during the Multi-level Shop Order Release process (SFC530) and the Multi-Level Backflush process (LMP600) for sub-assemblies that are lot controlled items. The user has the choice of using the parent lot ID, the next sequential generated lot ID, or not pre-assigning lot IDs. Multiple items per lot must be installed to use the parent lot number option.

Customers who use the Projected Shipments concept, and with that the Shipment Planning Workbench, require more flexibility in modifying outbound order lines before projected shipments are generated. The most important requirement is the option to change item quantities, which is a typical instrument to react on specific circumstances such as truck size and inventory situation. A Shipment Planning tab has been added to the Outbound Order Lines to enable users to perform shipment planning activities in terms of quantities and dates.

Optimize Your Manufacturing Today!

Crossroads RMC welcomes Amerequip as our newest client after successfully going live with OTTO, On-Time Orders.

Amerequip, with corporate headquarters in Kiel, Wisconsin, is a leading designer and manufacturer of accessories and attachments for the construction, utility, and industrial equipment, lawn and turf-care equipment, and related products sold in global markets served by their OEM partner customers.

Amerequip’s objective was to improve on time customer order shipments, reduce expediting, and cut down on the time their knowledge workers were spending digging for information. After carefully conducting their due diligence they chose OTTO to address these challenges.

OTTO helps manufacturing plants consistently meet customer commitments by performing predictive analysis to help prevent surprises and allow for early detection and resolution of potential issues. OTTO improves effectiveness of knowledge workers by reducing “data mining” required to answer customer order status questions, and improves the flow of material through the plant, as a result, reduce shortages and improve on-time customer order shipments. OTTO previously won the prestigious APICS Innovation Award of Excellence”.

We are proud to have Amerequip as our client and look forward to being a strategic partner and support their company growth and success.
