Just-Plan-It production scheduling with its full integration with your SAP ERP helps you to get your shop under control. You will improve your productivity: increase the capacity utilization, increase the resource efficiencies, decrease your lead times, maximize your throughput and remain able to deliver.
Proper production scheduling provides you with transparency which allows you to act faster and scale your operations bigger.
Have no visibility as to where your jobs are? Do you immediately know what to do when a machine breaks? Or do you need to check with a lot of people, and get a ton of information?
Make the entire production scheduling process visible. Transparency will help guide actionable insights and corrective actions.
We work with a third party that has built a production scheduling API that allows the software to integrate with your existing SAP ERP system.

Manufacturers running SAP Business ByDesign benefit from flexible, out-of-the-box connectivity, for a truly integrated system that can be easily tailored to fit how your company uses ByDesign.
Production scheduling is an important tool in helping an organization provide accurate, real-time schedules, decision support, and available-to-promise date and quantities. It is a manufacturing tool that is used to represent what the organization plans to produce expressed in specific configurations, quantities, and dates. It takes into account the forecast, the production plan, and other important considerations such as backlog, availability of material, availability of capacity, and management policies and goals.
What are the benefits of production scheduling?
The benefits of production scheduling include:
Planning: Predicting demand and matching that to labor, materials, and equipment capacity
Scheduling: Assigning workers and detailing contingency plans for when unexpected delays happen
Stockout prevention: Planning to maintain output, even if materials are delayed, or a swell in orders increases demand
Improved efficiency: Spotting bottlenecks and looking for areas of improvement. This results in improved lead times and smoother demand flows
Improved communication: With one master document detailing every element of the production workflow, communication is standard across the entire business
The value of ERP systems is widely understood in the manufacturing community.
