Advanced Materials Management

With Advanced Material Management (AMM), manufacturers gain advanced inventory tracking capabilities. AMM enables manufacturers to produce electronic requests for materials, dispatch those materials, and track inventory movements of all inventory including raw materials and work-inprocess. Using wireless terminals and bar-coding technology, manufacturers are able to track inventory in real-time. A manufacturer using Vantage now has complete control and visibility of raw materials and work-in-process as it travels throughout the enterprise.

Shop Floor Interface
Request raw materials or WIP product to be moved into the materials handler’s queue online and in real time.

WIP Locations
Display onscreen all WIP parts buffered in front of the work center with ability to zoom into container detail.

Reporting Scrap
Report pieces to good, scrap and nonconforming product from one screen while still clocked into the job.

Security
Ensure that only the right employees are able to update inventory information, including requesting material and reporting pieces.

Bar Coding on Demand
Print tags on demand enabling employee to properly label containers or to create custom labels to meet customer requirements.

Material Handler Interface
Use online queue of raw material and WIP parts to manage requests to locate and deliver the right parts to the correct work center at the appropriate time.

WIP Staging
Move WIP parts into inventory storage locations or stage WIP at the next work center based on available space and time. WIP staging provides flexibility and convenience when an operation in a high volume work center is followed by an operation in a low volume work center, or when the next work center is currently busy running another job.

Part Identification
Quickly and accurately identify WIP and inventory containers with systemgenerated bar codes.

Scanning
Eliminate data entry mistakes and increase transaction speed by simply scanning a bar code tag to complete an entire transaction.

Sales Order Allocation
Manage sales order allocations with greater efficiency and create more effective picking and shipping.

Prioritizing Orders
Treat your best customers with the highest priority by allocating inventory to the highest priority orders first. Reserve or allocate materials from stock or directly from a linked job to ensure that you ensure your highest priority customers the greatest care.

Reserving Inventory
Reserve specific parts in inventory for specific orders.

Integration
AMM is seamlessly integrated with the Order Management, Job Management, Data Collection, Material Requirements Planning, Field Service, Quality Assurance, Inventory Management, Scheduling, Shipping/Receiving, Accounts Payable and General Ledger modules.
