Have you ever thought about the complexity of your business, especially when it comes to sequencing processes in the most efficient manner possible? The ramifications of one sequencing decisions can make the difference between one job going late or twenty jobs going late. Recognizing the consequences of a sequencing decision before it plays out is a critical part of the scheduler’s role.
In the world of Planning and Scheduling there is a plethora of data to navigate to answer the basic questions of what runs where, what runs when, is it on time, and what is the impact to everything else? One of the tools that Planet Together offers is the functionality that allows the user to create and maintain alerts.
Alerts
Alerts are ways to summarize critical information in either spreadsheet form and also in summary form. The user can customize most screens in Planet Together. Planet Together users, regardless of whether they have read/write access, can customize the screens to show the information that is important to the individual.
For example, an operations manager may want to know what number of jobs is scheduled to be late at any given time. An alert can be set up so anytime the operations manager opens Planet Together, the information will already be populated and visible. A purchaser may want to know how many POs are still open. An alert can be set up for this also. The scheduler can use these alerts to monitor the effects of changes. Those changes may come from the floor, but also can come from moving jobs around on the schedule within Planet Together.
The ability for the user to individually customize visible data within Planet Together is just one of the many ways that Planet Together makes planning and scheduling easier.
