Synchronise systems with Sequencia
15 Jan 2000
Sequencia's Production Manager software is the only commercially available package which can synchronise plant floor and business systems data without programming, the company claims.
The new version of Production Manager uses a Microsoft infrastructure to convert data from an ERP system like SAP R/3, such as production dates and material usage specified from a process order, into a format which a batch manufacturing control system can understand and execute. It also works in reverse, converting data from systems like OpenBatch into a form that R/3 can understand.
Production Manager is the only packaged software solution which can do this, says Sequencia; other toolkits and in-house solutions would have to be programmed specifically to filter out data that is not relevant to the SAP system.
