WORK
ORDER PROCESSING |
 The Sage MAS 90 Work Order Processing module is the cornerstone of the Sage MAS 90
Manufacturing Solution. It allows you to issue work orders, develop schedules and track
costs associated with the manufacturing process. Work Order Processing provides you with
complete control over the manufacturing process and the ability to see up-to-the-minute
work in process information. This module is particularly well-suited for companies engaged
in assemble-to-order, engineer-to-order or make-to-order processing. When Work Order
Processing is used in conjunction with Bill of Materials, the material required to produce
a product can be automatically merged from the appropriate bill. All of the required
paperwork to move the job through the shop can then be generated from each work order,
including travelers, picking sheets, dispatch sheets and operation tickets.Using this
module’s informative reports, you can evaluate missing costs, examine any variance
from standards, check material shortages, analyze work center capacity and confirm tool
requirements. Additional reporting capabilities inform you of the status of open work
orders, Work In Process and work order history, and allow you to print inventory labels.By
combining the Sage MAS 90 Work Order Processing module with other modules from the
award-winning Sage MAS 90 product line, you can assemble the solution that best meets your
individual business needs. |

| Work Order Templates |
Work order templates with material information can be
defined. Standard work orders can use the information established in a template to speed
up data entry. |
| Work Order Estimates |
A Work Order Status of Estimate allows you to examine
the cost and scheduling impact of a work order without committing the inventory
components. As an added convenience, an estimate can be easily converted to a firm-planned
work order. |
| Material Issue Methods |
You can automatically issue materials when a work order
is released, or you can manually issue using the Work Order Transaction Entry program. You
can also use the “backflush” method to issue materials when a work order
completion is recorded. |
| Work Order Make Option |
A Make Option can be specified to indicate how the item
produced by a work order is to be used. A work order can be made for inventory, made for a
sales order or made for another work order. The Back Order Fill Report provides a list of
sales orders and work orders that can be filled upon completion of a product. |
| Extended Step Description |
You can enter up to 100 lines of extended description
for each step of a routing or a work order. The Step Description can be printed on the
Work Order Traveler and Operation Ticket to provide detailed instructions for shop
employees. |
| Work Order Scheduling |
Scheduling information can be maintained for each work
order. Forward scheduling can be used to calculate the due date based on a specified
release date and the lead times. Backward scheduling can used to calculate the necessary
release date based on a specified due date. You can reschedule a work order after it has
been released. |
| Work Center Capacity Analysis |
The Work Center Capacity Inquiry and Scheduled Capacity
Report indicate capacity commitments against a Work Center. Information can be displayed
graphically or in detail showing the start date, work order number and committed hours. |
| Work Order Documents |
You can print Work Order Travelers, Picking Sheets,
Dispatch Sheets and Operation Tickets for work orders. These documents can be printed for
released or unreleased work orders. |
| Work Order Transaction Entry |
All transactions against a work order can be entered
using this program. The types of transactions allowed are work order release, material
issue, labor, miscellaneous labor charge, miscellaneous material charge, outside
processing charge, work order completion and work order close. |
| By-product Accommodation |
By-products of a manufacturing process, also known as
co-products or joint products, can be received into inventory as part of a work order
transaction. |
| Work Order History |
Complete detailed history information for closed work
orders can be displayed using Work Order History Inquiry or printed on the Work Order
History Report. |
| Work Order Cost Roll-up |
Item costs can be calculated based upon the cost of
each component in its bill of materials, yield and scrap percentages, and the labor and
overhead in the routing. The STANDARD COST field for the item can be updated with the
calculated cost following the completion of the report. |
| User-defined Fields |
Up to four user-defined fields can be entered for each
work order. These fields can be defined to contain either a date or up to 10 alphanumeric
characters. |
| Work Order Memos |
Memos can be entered and maintained for individual work
orders. Full text-editing features are Work order memos can be displayed and maintained
from Work Order Entry and can be printed on the Open Work Order Report. |
