PRODUCTION

From bill of materials
to finished stock.

Versioned BOMs and routings, plans that become schedules and orders, material backflushed by batch, output confirmed on the floor, then costed and received into stock.

Solex Production Flow: orders, scheduling, shop-floor lines, output control and stock
CONNECTED PRODUCTION

Schedule & MRP

Schedule runs and calculate material needs against stock

BOM & Routing

Apply versioned BOMs and routings to every order

Production Orders

Release orders to work centers and lines

Material Backflush

Stage material and backflush consumption by batch

Shop Floor

Confirm output on the floor as each batch completes

Stock Receipt

Cost the batch and receive it into finished stock

CORE CAPABILITIES

Everything production needs, in one module.

From demand planning to shop-floor confirmation, every step shares the same data, so planners, supervisors and finance see the same numbers.

DEMAND & FORECAST

Demand Planning

Plan for what the business will actually need.

Combine confirmed sales orders and stock targets into a demand view that drives the production plan.

PLAN TO ORDER

Production Plan

Turn demand into a plan people can follow.

Set what to produce, how much and by when, then convert the plan into schedules and production orders.

SCHEDULING & MRP

Schedule & MRP

Know what to make and what to buy before you start.

Schedule runs against capacity and calculate material requirements so shortages show up before the line stops.

BOM & OPERATIONS

BOM & Routing

Versioned recipes and the steps to build them.

Maintain versioned bills of materials and routings, so every order uses the right structure and operations.

FLOOR CONFIRMATION

Shop Floor

Confirm output where the work happens.

Operators confirm output, scrap and time on the floor, with material backflushed by batch against the order.

CAPACITY & OEE

Work Centers & Lines

See capacity and performance by line.

Define work centers and lines, track downtime and OEE, and compare planned capacity with real output.

INSIDE THE PRODUCTION MODULE

Ten screens, one connected flow.

Everything in Production is organised into four clear areas, from planning to reporting.

OUTPUT CONTROL

Turn shop-floor output into reliable stock.

Every unit counted on the line is verified, costed and received into inventory without re-entry.

Material Staged

Components are staged at the line against the production order.

Backflushed by Batch

Consumption posts automatically as each batch is confirmed.

Output Confirmed

Good, rework and scrap quantities are confirmed on the shop floor.

Production Costed

Material, labour and machine time flow to the batch cost.

Received into Stock

Finished goods are received into the warehouse ledger.

PRODUCTION ORDERS

Follow every order from queue to closure.

A live board shows which batches are waiting, running, paused for downtime, or closed into stock.
