Advanced Manufacturing Solution for SAPBusiness One N'ware TechnologiesERP Solution for Small and Mid-sized Enterprises in Discrete and Process ManufacturingSAP Business One supports manufacturing planning, control and implementationin small and mid-sized manufacturing companies in different ways – as much asnecessary and as little as possible – with precise to ensure the efficiency andflexibility in the daily business. The business process of the customer takes thecenter stage. The advanced manufacturing module provides best practice oriented methods and workflows that fit for major manufacturing industries likemetal and plastics processing, machineryand apparatus, electrical/electronicequipment, automotive, packaging, chemical engineering, food.Master Data enhanced for Logistics andManufacturingMRPII and Production for different Strategies / OrganizationsThe source data form the basis for the implementation ofcompany - wide business processes as well as all possibilities for gathering information and making decisions.The advanced manufacturing module complements SAPBusiness One provides the information which smalland medium-sized companies need for manufacturingmanagement, cost accounting and controlling.The manufacturing functions include specific strategies /functions for materials management: order and stockrelated production, mixed and variant production as wellas the necessary functions for the appropriate productionplanning and execution of manufacturing orders.Industry-specific extended master data in particularnnnnnnnItemBill of Materials / RecipesRoutingsOperationsResources (groups, machines, personnel, tools)Cost centersTool managementIn addition to the usual standard features some speciallyextended areas shall be mentioned:Materials management:n Multiple material requirement modelsn Additional options for the control of goods receiptn Retroactive postings based on demand to work ordern Unscheduled postings based on demand to workordern Extended batch processing and serial numberprocessingn Extended inventoryn Mobile data collection for warehouse / bin locationwww.nwaretech.com

Production order management:n Extended MRPII functionality allows a fully integrated rough cut capacity planning as describedbelown Create orders: different workflows to create workorders can be defined. The customers are able toselect the appropriate methods according theirbusiness processes.n Comprehensive planning and execution of externalproduction and supply partsRough Cut Capacity PlanningThe functions for rough general planning include theareas of material and capacity requirements planning.n RoughplanningofmaterialrequirementParameterized MRPII methods e.g. for generalplanning and simulation of partial orders or annualbudgets. For more information, see materials management / MRPII.n Capacity planning: Rough-cut capacity planningshows in a transparent way available, used andunused capacities for resources.nnnBy machine, machine groups, personnelWith graphic tools for evaluation and reportsWith selection of efficient use of resourceswithin the same group, alternative resourcesand toolsof work. By scheduling the production orders, these poolsare filled with operations. Flexible reports and graphsprovide the necessary transparence to process the rightjobs at the right time.n Automatic pooling with start date / progress of theoperationsn Operations available, first planned, behind schedulen Easy rescheduling of operationsn Rush ordersn Recalculation of utilization pools using prioritiesn Online check of material availabilityQuality ControlIn addition to fulfilling high quality standards, most smalland medium-sized manufacturing companies must also beable to document them. SAP Business One offers efficientfunctions which allow to plan and execute the necessaryquality tests during the material flow, from initial procurement across manufacturing until shipment. Various kinds oftest orders can be assigned to external as well as internalworking steps (operations).The module includes, among other things:n Manage quality control plansn Quality control by orders from goods receiptthrough production to deliveryn Monitoring Expiration datesn Release / block Check, release, block batches andserial number partsn Order historyn Capture and analyze customer complaints,suppliers, internal productionDetailed Planning (Pool Monitoring)Pool control is an efficient way to plan resource groups orresources. The pools can be defined with certain volumewww.nwaretech.com

Pre-calculationWhether you want to prepare estimates for standardproducts with different lot sizes or customer-specificdesigns for quotations or manufacturing orders, the precalculation makes different possibilities available to you.Highlights of this very flexible module are:n Calculation scheme freely definablen Automatically create and manage calculation structuresn Simulate alternative scenarios by changing theformula structuren Calculation and reporting of marginal costs and fullcosts and profit contributionn Production orders can be created from the calculation structuren Batch calculation with creation of price listsn History of calculation dataConcurrent and Post-calculation, Work inProgressAt any time the actual accumulated costs of a work order,the comparison with the planned costs or the profit margin are provided. Whether as full, marginal costing orcontribution margin can be determined by the individualdesign of the calculation scheme. Further, the data canbe parameterized such that a highly flexible and differentiated assignment of work in process is possible.n Several calculations in paralleln Comparisons of target/actual with drill-downprocedure of order for assemblies up to individualmovementsn Batch calculation with selection of different evaluation criterian Flexible differentiable WIP using the chart ofaccounts from SAP Business OneProduct ConfiguratorThe product configurator allows the management ofproduct variants. In a quotation or sales order a userfriendly guided question/answer process can be startedto configure, calculate and integrate the products.The structure of products is based on the master data,such as items, BOMs, routings and can also be usedwithout manufacturing, i.e. as standalone with SAPBusiness One quotation and sales order processing.Starting from the product selection for exclusive pricing,from simple material lists to the fully-integrated manufacturing, all applications are possible. Efficiency is maximized.n Allows the creation of multilevel decision structureswith variables, formulas, rules, wildcards, graphics,etc.www.nwaretech.com

n Automatic generation of a user-friendly menu forconfiguring the productn For more complex variant products or applicationsshortcuts to the fields of information (e.g. items,BOMs / recipes, routings) are available. Theircontents / values can be influenced with vastpotential to be effective in generating the desiredproduct variant.Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS)APS is used for detailed planning in enterprises, if ordertimes, lead times, transition periods, capacity allocations,availability of resources are critical parameters in thevalue creation process. By graphical visualization andcomparison of all activities with resources, a high level oftransparency is achieved, where and how intervention isrequired.Some of the most important features:Multiple Warehouse / Bin LocationManagementThe warehouse / bin location management extends thestandard functionality of inventory management on theone hand and to the nature of the stored goods on theother hand. It can be used as a single module with SAPBusiness One.n Extended warehouse managementn With/without consideration in (MRP)n User-defined warehouses / bin locations with upto 3 dimensions based on vector graphicsn Different to- and from-bin strategiesn Kind of stored goodsn With batch/serial number or expiration daten Inventory with parameterized counting lists andinventory registrationn Work order and resource-oriented customizablegraphical views and chartsn Various ways to order and operation sequenceplanning and optimization with/without capacitylimitsn Dependencies in multi-level orders with crosschecking the delivery dates are consideredn Simple selection or change of resources such asmachinery or toolsn The integrated material availability calculation canbe enabled/disabled and reports automaticallymissing parts during every planning and scheduling process.Mobile Solution Warehouse ManagementThe functions of warehouse management are alsoprovided for mobile devices (Windows Mobile). Thesecommunicate via wireless LAN directly to the server,therefore the information on the mobile devices is alwaysup to date. The mobile data collection is versatile invarious combinations with other modules.www.nwaretech.com
