in addition ,MES Powerful production decision support function , The sales personnel can get what production can be completed at what time in the shortest time , Whether the production capacity of an enterprise can accept such information as an order , Link the sales work directly with the production capacity of the enterprise .

2、 Material requirements plan

MES The MRP provided by the system is different from the traditional one BOM The material requirement plans provided are fundamentally different . First of all , It meets the production capacity limit by itself 、 A variety of production constraints and requirements for optimizing production scheduling to improve work efficiency . second , It has detailed time information of to minutes . This data is provided to ERP It can greatly improve the management level of purchasing and inventory modules .

Purchasing module ：MES Accurate material requirement planning is an important foundation for purchasing , And the original procurement lead time of the procurement module 、 Supplier information 、 Price management is linked , It enables enterprises to obtain more accurate and optimized purchase plans . This purchase plan will directly reduce the inventory of production raw materials .

Inventory module ：MES Detailed MRP for ERP In the module, inventory issue / receipt documents can be directly generated , There are varieties on the document 、 Number 、 Time 、 Details such as plan number , Greatly reduce the workload of the inventory module , It also improves the inventory planning accuracy , Make inventory management more scientific and standardized .

3、 Detailed operation plan （ Process planning ） And personnel salary 、 Equipment management 、 Quality management

With a work plan , It can be improved ERP Management of these modules . The specific functions and methods should be consistent with the needs and needs of actual users ERP Software links .

4、 Cost planning 、 Cost allocation data

MES The system is based on the production plan, material cost and resource cost per unit time , Automatically generate production cost plans .MES The system can also allocate the cost to each operation according to the actual production execution data , Get the actual cost incurred .
