The Pro­duc­tion Plan­ning (PP) com­po­nent allows you to plan the pro­cure­ment, man­u­fac­tur­ing and sale of your prod­ucts. It also enables you to use dif­fer­ent plan­ning strate­gies such as make-to-order or make-to-stock so that you nei­ther over­pro­duce nor face an out-of-stock sit­u­a­tion. Pro­duc­tion process­es such as dis­crete man­u­fac­tur­ing, process man­u­fac­tur­ing and repet­i­tive man­u­fac­tur­ing, as well as replen­ish­ment using Kan­ban are all avail­able with­in the PP mod­ule. Also, the PP mod­ule offers sev­er­al reports and ana­lyt­ics tools to enable plan­ners to con­stant­ly opti­mize and fine tune their plan­ning parameters.
