Big News from inPOWER 2025!

At this year’s event in Wisconsin, Crossroads RMC unveiled NextTrack Insights, our most advanced analytics solution yet. This release marks a major step forward for manufacturers looking to unlock deeper insights from their ERP systems.

Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for OPERATIONS:Β Pegging Material Supply Lines for Operation and Product Subcontracting

Kathy Barthelt 0 6475 Article rating: 5.0

For project pegged production orders, operations can be subcontracted. The material delivered to the subcontractor can be project pegged or anonymous. The subassemblies sent and retrieved are always project pegged. Costing breaks can be applied to direct the costs of the subcontracted operation to a specific project cost account. If (production material) costing breaks are used, a purchase order line's peg can differ from the peg on the material supply line.

For product subcontracting, the subcontracted purchase orders can include materials that inherit the project pegs or can include anonymous materials. The pegged materials are stored in inventory and are shipped to the subcontractor with project pegged orders.

VJES (Visual Job Execution Software) for Infor LN & Baan

Kathy Barthelt 0 17960 Article rating: 5.0

In a recent study on employee training and trends in manufacturing, the following results were obtained:

  1. Improved Learning Retention: People retain about 80% of what they see and do, compared to only 20% of what they read. This makes VWIs, which combine visuals and hands-on action, significantly more effective for training.
  2. Reduced Errors: VWIs help minimize mistakes by providing clear, step-by-step guidance. Companies that have switched from traditional text-heavy instructions to visual formats report a notable decrease in errors, leading to better quality assurance. 
  3. Faster Onboarding: New employees can reach full productivity much quicker with VWIs. Some organizations have cut training time by nearly 50%, allowing workers to learn at their own pace with minimal supervision.

​Every manufacturer relies on a few core metrics to manage operations: efficiency, productivity, capacity, and labor and equipment utilization. These benchmarks are used worldwide to assess performance and process effectiveness.
