Sicon Manufacturing features
Works Order Processing
On its own, Works Order Processing provides enhanced functionality to the Sage 200 BOM module and is an ideal addition for clients in manufacturing who need a simplified stock allocation and issuing process.
As part of the full Manufacturing suite, it becomes the key processing engine, with the ability to amend works orders during assembly and update operations with true costs from the Shop Floor Data Capture module.
Weekly labour and machine capacity demand is also created from Works Orders and generates a rough-cut capacity plan at both labour and machine levels.
Material Requirement Planning (MRP)
The second core component of the suite is Material Requirement Planning (MRP). Suggests what purchase orders and works orders need to be created, based on material demand from sales orders, forecast sales orders, free stock and minimum stock levels.
You can run MRP once a week or twenty times per day. On top of that, you don’t need to get everyone out of the system to do it!
Sicon Projects for Manufacturing
If you need to integrate your Sicon Manufacturing modules with Sicon Projects, this is no problem. Works Orders fully integrates with Job Costing, so you can see ongoing commitments and WIPs in your projects as work progresses.
Sicon Kitting
