WinLine FFG

External manufacturing

With the use of the WinLine FFG module you expand your functionalities in the WinLine PPS system by the possibility of external production

In external production, you can outsource production orders in general or as required. This option can be important if, for example, internal resources are not sufficient to complete a customer order on time. Or if certain types of production cannot be carried out in-house (e.g. finishing) and therefore specialists must be called in to implement these specific requirements.

In the WinLine FFG module, the external manufacturer is regarded as a separate storage location and managed as such in the program. This allows you to track exactly which material must be delivered at what time to enable the external manufacturer to produce the ordered parts on time.

The necessary delivery documents are also issued, with the work slip serving as the production order in this case. You schedule transportation times for the outward and return journey of the goods via activities so that these are also taken into account for the production process.
