Materials Yield System
Objective
To provide manufacturers and
distributors in the Plastics, Steel, Rubber, Paper and Lumber
industries with the ability to maximize yields, minimize waste, and
return tracked remnants to inventory.
Many manufacturing and distribution
facilities sell materials according to customer-specific dimensional
requirements. This means that a customer does not often purchase a
standard size that is in stock, but instead orders a custom size. This
requires a supplier to yield and cut material from existing inventory,
another branch’s inventory, purchase material from a vendor, or do a
combination of each. This type of order typically leads to off-cuts
(remnants) being created during the cutting operation. Depending on
the type of material being cut, the remnants may have a value and
would need to be returned to inventory without having to manually
create a new part number each time.
The Value of Materials
Yield System (MYS) for SYSPRO
- Allows more accurate inventory
evaluation
- Provides efficient tracking and
monitoring of remnants
- Saves time by automatically
calculating the best yield
- Maximizes efficiency of personnel
while reducing labor and restocking costs
- Allows for less wastage and scrap
from original materials, minimizing the need for finding
environmentally safe disposal
Matching SYSPRO to your
business
- Creates a yield calculation while
processing a quotation or a sales order for cut sheet, rod, or
tube products
- Automatically calculates
customer-specific dimensional requirements with the resulting
yields displayed from existing inventory in multiple locations
- Creates a cutting workflow if any
cutting operations are required
- Allows salespersons to be in
complete control of the actual items selected for order processing
- Assists the user to correctly create
the inventory part by including information such as material type,
shape, and dimensional characteristics
- Handles the issuing of raw material
to a job, receipting the cut item and remnants back into stock,
without manually creating new inventory codes
- Updates the cost of goods sold for a
line item
- Remnants returned to stock can be
put back at zero cost or have a value placed according to needs
- Assigns new stock codes
automatically based on dimensions
- Allows customization of inventory
screens to user specifications and industry-specific terminology
- Issues purchase orders to
appropriate vendor or requisitions to purchasing if sufficient
inventory is not on hand
- Provides the optional ability to
change product type or terminology (rod, tube, sheet, etc.) to
accommodate specific industries
- Gives efficient pricing with orders
- Allows the ability to scale price
when creating sales orders
- Creates job operations for cutting
and quality assurance
Integration
- MYS integrates with the Sales
Orders, Purchase Orders, Inventory Control, and Work in Progress
modules
- MYS requires the Sales Orders,
