Production planning
Production planning is one of the most complex activities, and it determines whether a company uses its resources correctly to reach its goals. Production planning covers determining production demand and load, making optimal use of the available production resources and tracking the movement of semi-finished products. Production planning uses Theory of Constraints (TOC) solutions that let you manage and track order completion dates, make it possible to complete all orders on time and analyze the causes of possible delays. TOC solutions let you set a realistic completion date when the order is accepted. Production planning is made easier by results recorded in real time that reflect the current situation in production.
The production planning module in the Terra ERP production management system was designed to make work easier and describe the processes when planning production, describing raw material use and resource load, and planning work.
