OVERVIEW
Production planning is a balancing act: enough materials to meet orders, without excess stock; enough capacity, without idle time. Without good data, planners rely on experience and spreadsheets.
SAP Business One gives planners the tools they need. Bills of materials and routings define how products are made, MRP suggests what to buy and make from orders and forecasts, and production orders track materials, labour and output.
Resource planning in Business One adds machine and labour capacity, and add-ons can extend scheduling further where needed.
Webtel configures production planning in SAP Business One around your process, using standard functionality first and add-ons or reports only where they add clear value. Your users test with real data before go-live, and we stay on hand as they start working in the new process.

Too much bought just in case.
