Product assembly plan

All products that have a product assembly plan are displayed in Product assembly plan. The associated product assembly plan can be opened by selecting a product.

A product assembly plan contains the assignment of the components and materials of the associated product parts list to production lines and their stations. The Nexeed Order Management module retrieves the data from the product parts list and the product assembly plan for the product to coordinate the further processing of the components and materials.

By selecting a product assembly plan in the overview, the lines and their stations can be displayed with the assigned components and materials.

A product assembly plan can be created for a product parts list. Both must belong to the same product (same type/item number).
Product parts lists

The products can be grouped under umbrella terms for greater clarity.
Group products and packaging specifications or change grouping

Any number of product assembly plans can be created or imported for each product.

Example:

psm_product_building_plan_overview
