Schedule overview and the tasks it supports

The figure below illustrates how Boyum Solutions' software portfolio supports the product value chain. Members of the Netronic Manufacturing family, i.e. Build, Schedule, Produce and Inspect are shown in full color.

While Netronic Manufacturing is documented in this Help center, you may also learn more about our logistics and product information management solutions on the Produmex WMS and Perfion pages, respectively.

The position of Schedule in the product value chain is highlighted by an orange frame. Schedule enables you to create a plan for the optimum scheduling of your production processes. As all Netronic Manufacturing applications, it is connected to your ERP system. It also interacts with Produce (Produce / Manager and Produce / Operator), i.e. the Netronic Manufacturing applications designed to facilitate the processing and administration of production orders.

Schedule helps you manage your resources such as machines and employees (operators). More importantly, it assigns your workload to the resource capacities available during your planning period. In other words, your jobs (production orders) along with the tasks (operations = routings) specified in them are assigned to the machines and employees working on your shop floor. The resulting plan is presented as an interactive Gantt chart that you can rearrange flexibly as needed.
