Reduce working capital – reduce WIP levels, know what is available, implement a pull strategy; Stock accuracy – implement better control of inventory at a lot level. SPEDE Work-in-Process system: Label, track, control and trace WIP inventory real-time by serialized unit.

Created: Monday, 01 December 2014 11:31 How does a Work-in-Process (WIP) solution differ from an Inventory Control solution? Both systems track inventory, but a work-in-process system will tie the inventory to a work order and a step-by-step manufacturing process.

Work-in-process systems are primarily used in manufacturing and production environments while inventory control systems are primarily used in stockrooms and warehouses. Work-in-process systems can also track the transformation of materials while inventory control solutions generally do not. Codebreaker 10 Hdloader Patch here. Inventory System An inventory control solution can track the raw materials and finished goods but leaves the manufacturing process as a “black hole” with little or no visibility into the production process. Work-in-Process System A work-in-process solution tracks the inventory and also provides visibility into the manufacturing process. A work-in-process solution also will tie the raw materials to a finished good so that you’ll know what specific item(s) were used to produce a specific batch. Lot number and serial number traceability are sometimes very important in manufacturing processes.
