Features: |
|
Control changes made to labor operations, move times, queue times, setup hours,
or other labor-related data for each routing. |
|
Manage changes made to new raw materials or substituted component items. |
|
Create new change requests when multimedia files are updated. ECMs may include
new machine setup videos or material handling instructions. |
|
Use change requests to track changes made to engineering drawings. You can also
create hyperlinks to show relationships between current and previous drawings
using the built-in CAD viewer. |
|
| Each engineering change may contain up to seven different approval levels. |
| Members of each sequence may check an approval box online providing updated
access to change request status. |
| Notes can be entered for each approval sequence. |
| E-mail notifications can be used with any MAPI-compatible e-mail system such as
Microsoft Exchange. |
| E-mail messages are sent to every member of up to seven different sequence
groups. |
| If the approvals must be made in order, then the e-mail notifications are sent to
members of the next sequence group after the previous group has approved the
change. |
| Multiple e-mail addresses may be entered for each sequence level. |
| Changes may contain an effective date. This is the date that the new routing/bill of
material version will take effect and the old version will become inactive. |
| You can specify a retirement date for each change as well. For example, you may
want to set a retirement date for a routing/bill of material if you know that you will
be using a substitute part only for a specified time. |
| Change management helps manufacturers meet stringent quality control standards
set forth in ISO/QS certification programs. |
| The Sage MAS 500 ECM system improves the production process by closely
monitoring changes made to production standards and costs. |
