Set how materials are used in production with material movements.
First let us take a look at the most typical example:
Looking at the scheme you can see that there are seven warehouses four of them issuing warehouses (raw materials, semi-finished products, material, packaging) which are used in issuing items in production. Plus there are three receiving warehouses (scrap, products, waste) whcih are used in receiving things produced as well as other leftovers.
Items are issued from issuing warehouse to production. To do this use
document types in PANTHEON.
Warehouse issues are used to produce an item (raw materials, semi-finished products, materials, packaging). On the other hand,
warehouse receiving is used in delivering items (products, semi-finished products, scrap, waste) from production.

When defining paths for movement keep in mind that they start from the warehouse and not from production. This way issuing a product from manufacturing represents a warehouse RECEIVING. Other way round receiving material in production represents a warehouse ISSUE.

Below you can see a typical example of corresponding specification used in production:
PRODUCT1
|
| 1 pcs
|
| RAWMATERIAL1
| 0.3 kg
|
| SEMI-FINISHED PRODUCT1
| 1 pcs
|
| SEMI-FINISHED PRODUCT2
| 2 pcs
|
| MATERIAL1
| 5 pcs
|
| PACKAGING1
| 1 pcs
|
Manfuacturing PRODUCT1 there are 0.03 kg of SCRAP1 and 0.001 kg of WASTE1 produced.
Let us for sake of illustration suppose the quantity required in production equals used quantity (exact volumes without offset).
Below you can see the documentation when producing 1 PRODUCT1:
warehouse issue (used in production):
warehouse receiving (issued from production):
Here you can observe that with such organization 8 documents are issued from one work order (1 * work order + 4 * issues + 3 * receipts). Furthermore, it can be seen that 7 warehouses and 8 document types are required (1 * work order + 4 * issues + 3 * receipts).
We could hardly call this an efficient system since there are too many resources required in order for it to work. Normallly such a scheme is a consequnce of use (either restricting the previous methods used in monitoring manufacturing or applications used in manufacturing/material management or accounting. Plus, organization of work in production).
PANTHEON enables you to manage production rationally.
