Generating GHS, CoA, and Other Documents
For manufacturers and distributors of hazardous materials, Deacom ERP provides support for the creation and management of Globally Harmonized System (GHS) Labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDSs). In this brief demonstration of the software, we show how these documents, along with examples of Certificates of Analysis, Bill of Materials, and Shipping labels, can all be generated from within the system.
Production
Production is at the very core of most batch and process manufacturers. This video provides a very high level look at some of the production capabilities within the system for planning, scheduling, inputting, closing, and reporting production jobs.
Maintenance Repair and Operations (MRO)
MRO capabilities required of batch and process manufacturers are built directly into the Deacom ERP system. This allows for many features such as sharing schedules, using the same purchasing functions, and using the same MRP functions. This also allows for a seamless flow directly into accounting.
MRP for Production
One of the most important tools from a production planning perspective is the MRP (Material Requirements Planning) tool. In this quick demonstration of the software, we show how you can use the MRP report to view what items are in planning and how to create a new production job.
Production Scheduling
Built-in scheduling tools within the Deacom ERP system, allow you to determine what's going to be produced on which days, including any type of capacity calculation that you want to use to determine if you're going to be within the capacity of that particular day.
Job Creation for Make to Order (MTO) Scenarios
For customers that are primarily make to order production facilities, Deacom has the capability to create production orders right from the customer's sales order.
Issuing Materials and Finishing Jobs
As part of the manufacturing process, it is critical to identify the precise lots of materials that are going into production from a raw material standpoint, as well as to be able to document the finishes of a product in real time. Here we explain how this procedure can be completed in the software, however keep in mind that most customers prefer to conduct these duties with scan guns and the Deacom Warehouse Management System.
Reporting
The ability to generate reports quickly and efficiently is a significant benefit of using the Deacom ERP system. The built-in reporting tools are user-friendly, simple to set up and configure, and consistent throughout the software.
The Deacom User Experience
This brief overview of the Deacom ERP user experience demonstrates the various BI dashboards available to users, the ability to drill down into specific source transactions, and how to access different areas of the system relevant to your business processes such as sales, purchasing, inventory management, and more.
Managing Budgets
Budgets are used for financial reporting purposes within Deacom ERP, are organized by fiscal years, and can contain multiple accounts. In this quick demonstration of the software, we show how you can set up and manage different budgets, import data from external sources, and drill down into individual transactions.
Costing Methods
See how Deacom handles different inventory costing methods and how they are used to identify and understand the full cost of a particular product.
Customer Specific Quality Control
You need an efficient way of making sure the correct products get to your customers, especially for those that require specific quality control specifications. Learn how you can manage QC specs including specific tests, target values, and min/max values of acceptance for the finished product and reliably have the warehouse picking process identify which lots will meet those customer requirements.
Vendor Management
Manufacturers require the flexibility to easily switch between vendors who supply the raw materials you need to produce your products. In this brief demonstration we show how you can set up preferred vendors, along with additional vendors, and based on the production planning dictated by the material requirements planning tool, make the determination of which of your vendors can supply those products.
Inventory Management: Facility and Location Setup
At a high level, inventory management within Deacom ERP begins with setting up your facilities and locations. Facilities define unique or separate locations that concentrate resources such as workers, machinery, and other capital. From there you can drill into location types which are used to identify groups of alike and specific locations within a facility.
Inventory Management: Using MRP to Understand the Status of Inventory
Manufacturers can get full visibility of the status of your inventory by means of the native MRP report. This report provides you with information on the demand and supply of your inventory and lets you more easily search or filter by inventory status information, such as quantity on hand, quantity on sales orders, and min and max reorder points.
Inventory Management: Physical and Cycle Counting
In this brief demonstration of the Deacom ERP system, we see how the frequency of physical and cycle counts can be established at the item master level, and how those then drive the count sheets used by your warehouse employees.
Workflow Management
Managing workflows becomes important for any company that wants to track their business processes in the ERP system and specifically what users are doing each task within those processes. Workflows can be applied to many areas such as R&D, procurement, and sales to name a few.
EDI Sales Orders
Receiving EDI orders from your customers makes it much easier for you to manage your internal sales order process, eliminating any mistakes, and going through the approval process internally to turn them into actual sales orders within the system.
Lot Tracking and Traceability
See how you can drill down into inventory reporting starting from the raw materials all the way to the finished goods, and view the specifics of everywhere that a lot was used.
