Value proposition Overview on capacity reservations from Production orders Planned production orders Project activities Service management Integrated in Microsoft Dynamics AX online and real-time No external components pure AX code (cfr. Gantt) Easy intervention in planning with drag n drop Additional features in planning Progress indication for scheduled orders/activities Flexible coloring Project type icons Production status icons..
Graphical Planning and Scheduling Integrated in Microsoft Dynamics AX online and real-time planning of (planned) production orders and project activities Single capacity overview for AX resources Easy intervention in planning with drag n drop Support for dual screen setting Optimalization function for production to eliminate gaps Define calendar deviations

Production planning functionality Visualisation and manipulation > Production orders (from production orders master) > Planned production orders (from MRP) Plan by drag and drop Support for planning using two screen Drop behaviour: Plan on next open capacity Plan where dropped (and move what s in the way) Easy change of process and setup time (and adjust planning)
Production planning functionality Planning on job level (only) Supporting standard AX planning parameters Limited capacity (Y/N) Limited resources References Release and start from graphical overview Supporting both limited as unlimited capacity for work centers Optimisation function to eliminate gaps
Scheduling Production Jobs Graphical interface using standard AX scheduling engine Supported scheduling options Finite capacity + move existing reservations Finite capacity + do not move existing reservations Infinite capacity + do not move reservations Drag and drop to reschedule a job Drag and drop to reschedule another work center
Scheduling Production Jobs Blocked for planning Optimize Scheduling with multiple operation routes Resize block width to reschedule process time Schedule and firm MRP Planned orders Printed copy of graphical planning
Grouping Production Operations Create grouping order Reschedule grouping order Change work center of grouping order Release grouping order Modify grouping order Add non-grouped production operation to grouping order Withdraw production operation from grouping order Cancel grouping order Withdraw all production operations from grouping order
