e-M-POWER Production Module is the core of the manufacturing system as it defines production and materials specifications, then coordinates production jobs and material movements. It is used for job order registration and job scheduling, as well as material requirement planning. When materials are allocated to a job, the purchasing department is notified for the requisition of new materials. In order to coordinate production jobs effectively, dispatching functions are also provided for instance, material issue to the shop floor.
