As a production planner, you want to be able to build and manage a complete forecast structure from a sales or production order. After all, you want insight into purchasing needs, planning load, and lead times. Forecast explosions can be automatically generated. This article explains how it works.

The standard report 'Open Production Order Lines' displays all production order lines that are not fully finished. This information can be used to check which production order lines are in progress.

The standard report 'Planning Overview Sales' provides an overview of sales orders and related production planning. Each order line displays information about items, quantities, delivery dates, planned production, reporting ready, and related operations. The report indicates whether the operation has started or finished, if the planned dates have been met, and if certain data is missing. Through visual signaling, it helps monitor delivery times and follow up on production activities.

This article contains the frequently used API calls for Articles and Bills of Materials.

To fulfill a sales order line, the demand must first be met. MKG offers several options for this. This article briefly explains the different options.

In a bill of materials, calculation or production order, you can manually enter a pre-calculation, but you can also extensively copy it from an existing BOM, calculation or production order. In this article, you will learn how to do that.

Planning production orders brings together data from all over MKG, such as operations and resources, but also employees and time registration. If an operation goes differently than planned, a notification may arise. What does such a notification mean and what triggers it? This article provides an overview of all planning notifications.

This article describes the administration settings on the 'General' tab. On this tab, you will find the settings for 'Registration default based on', 'Entering hours', 'Processing hours', 'Holidays', and 'Operations'.

The standard dashboard 'Production Order Status List' displays all subassemblies linked to operations that have not yet been reported ready, based on planning operations. The sorting is based on the planned date of the subassembly.

When the final operation is completed, the production is completed. Before you can now deliver the products, you will first need to report the produced quantities as ready in MKG. In this article, you will learn how to report the production ready in MKG.

Once the production order is provided with material, you can create the order guide card and start the first operation. You start the production. In this article, you will learn how to generate the order guide card and start the production order step by step.

The Calculations module is used for creating preliminary calculations. You can use the module by incorporating a sales quote into the calculation or by creating an 'independent' calculation. In addition to materials, you add operations to a calculation. An outsourcing is considered an operation in MKG.

This article describes the administration settings on the 'Calculation' tab. On this tab you will find the settings for 'Calculations', 'Execute Actions only on Assembly', 'Bills of Materials' and 'BOMs/Calculations/Production Orders'.

Within a production order, multiple production order lines may occur. One of these lines is always the finished product. The remaining lines are then the broken-down components, or components of components (think of machine builders).

Production orders can be easily created based on existing structures and data. In these situations, input remains limited or is even completely unnecessary. This guide shows how to manually enter a production order.

In a production environment, a finished product is the completely manufactured item that is ready for sale to the customer or delivery to the next link in the chain. In ERP software, it is recorded as a sellable item with its own item number, inventory, cost price, and selling price, and it is the outcome of the entire production or assembly process as defined in the bill of materials.

Samengestelde producten kunnen gefaseerd worden gepland. Als het veld 'Productiefase' wordt ingevuld op de productieorderregel, zal er in de volgorde van deze fase worden gepland.

To document the composition of a product (item), MKG can utilize bills of materials. Essentially, a bill of materials records the recipe of a product/item.
