MANUFACTURING SOLUTIONS

BILL OF MATERIALS
 The Bill of Materials module allows you to easily track the components and miscellaneous charges that make up your finished items and assemblies. It also gives you accurate and informative reports detailing bill structures, component requirements and production history, and provides unlimited revision capability - up to 99 levels are supported. The Bill of Materials module also includes a unique Bill Options feature, which allows products to be customized directly from sales orders. Designed to accommodate the after-the-fact recording of production, the component items used are automatically relieved from inventory and the finished products are automatically received into inventory. You can also control production costs with the Engineering Change Control feature.

INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
This module provides insightful data pertaining to the receipt of goods, the movement of goods within or between locations, the sale, removal or other disposition of goods, and the precise valuation and status of goods remaining in inventory at any point in time. Fully integrated with other MAS 90 and MAS 200 modules, Inventory Management is the cornerstone of an effective distribution or manufacturing solution.

MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS PLANNING
The Material Requirements Planning (MRP) module helps ensure that you have sufficient amounts of materials on hand at all times. It simplifies work processes, eliminates purchasing and scheduling problems, and allows purchasing and production managers to plan more effectively. MRP looks at demand based on open sales orders and projections, and also reviews supply based on inventory stock levels and open purchase orders. Combining this information with product build times and lead times, you can produce reports that advise the purchasing manager on orders that need to be placed, revised or canceled.

PURCHASE ORDER
The Purchase Order module organizes and streamlines the important task of ordering products, and helps you keep accurate records of these significant transactions. When this module is integrated with Accounts Payable, Inventory Management and Sales Order, you will have a comprehensive, fully integrated purchasing system allowing you to receive goods into Inventory Management and post invoices to Accounts Payable in one easy step.

SALES ORDER
The Sales Order module gives you quick and accurate access to product availability, flexible pricing including special discounts, credit card limits and much more. You can also automatically generate invoices and print daily backorder reports. The StarShip shipping system and the Credit Card Processing module integrate with Sales Order to provide instant history of online purchases and shipping entry.

WORK ORDER
The Work Order module is the cornerstone of the MAS 90 and MAS 200 manufacturing solution. It lets you issue work orders, develop schedules, track costs and maintain complete control of the manufacturing process. Providing complete control over the manufacturing process and the ability to see up-to-the-minute, work-in-process information, Work Order is particularly well-suited for companies engaged in assemble-to-order, engineer-to-order or make-to-order processing. Used in conjunction with Bill of Materials, all of the required paperwork to move the job through the shop can then be generated from each work order, including travelers, dispatch sheets and operation tickets.
