Features of NetSuite WIP & Routing Module

NetSuite's WIP & Routing module is designed to help manufacturers streamline the jobflow throughout the shop floor. This module allows users to create work centres and custom operations flows, which work orders can be routed through based on the products being produced.

Work Centre Reporting

NetSuite’s WIP & Routing module offers a comprehensive view of the entire shop floor, enabling users to see which work centres are in use and how they are performing. It also provides detailed reporting on the time taken for each operation and the cost incurred, giving manufacturers full visibility of their operations.

Manufacturing Cost Control

Gain control over costs by increasing visibility into job cost and inventory levels. NetSuite WIP also allows users to track the movement of resources across different work centres, enabling them to quickly identify where costs can be reduced.

Inventory Consumption Management

NetSuite WIP & Routing gives users greater control over inventory consumption, allowing them to better manage the usage of components and materials. Users can set up rules for material consumption, such as reorder points and minimum stock levels, to ensure that they have enough supplies at all times to prevent disruptions to your manufacturing process.

Performance Monitoring

Monitor performance by tracking job completion times and production rates. This helps users identify bottlenecks in the manufacturing process and allows them to implement corrective measures to increase efficiency. With NetSuite WIP & Routing, manufacturers can gain real-time visibility into their operations, enabling them to make more informed decisions about their business.

Infinite Capacity Scheduling

NetSuite WIP & Routing module provides users with infinite capacity scheduling capabilities. This lets them easily manage the production schedule and view it in real-time, making sure that tasks are completed on time and that resources are properly utilised for maximum efficiency.

Work in Progress Cost Tracking

Track the cost of Work in Progress by assigning costs to operations, labour and materials. This helps users get a better understanding of the actual cost incurred for each job, even when partially complete. NetSuite's WIP reports also flow through to accounting, giving you an accurate representation of your inventory value.

Drag and Drop Scheduling

The drag and drop scheduling feature allows users to quickly change the sequence of operations or adjust the timeline for job completion. This gives them a real-time view into their shop floor, allowing them to easily identify areas where underutilization may be occurring.

Location Specific Routing Settings

NetSuite WIP & Routing allows users to assign different routing settings to specific work centres in different facilities and locations. This lets them control the resources utilised in each area, ensuring that they are being used efficiently and cost-effectively according to the shop floor layout of different facilities.
