Inventory Management

Inventory Management

Within EZ-MES you have different ways to manage the parts in Raw Material Inventory (RMI) and Finished Goods Inventoy (FGI). In-flows and Out-Flows can be managed by Purchase Orders and Shipments.

 Inventory-Part-States

Important to know is that the Part State determines if a Part Record is on Order, RMI, WIP(Work In Progress), FGI or Shipped.

Using Travelers to Move Parts to Inventory

To add parts to inventory you need a Flow Definition with an End Part State of RMI or FGI. The following figure shows an example of how to configure just such a Flow Definition:

Inventory_Management_Flow_1

In this example a simple Flow Definition dices a single wafer into 4 quarters and places the parts in FGI. The following figure shows how this configuration will work for the Travelers and Part Records:

Inventory Adjustments

Quantities in Raw Material Inventory (RMI) and Finished Goods Inventory (FGI) can be adjusted by the Inventory Adjustment function which can be accessed from the Inventory management Desktop

Ordering and Shipping Parts

At the moment parts are ordered by using a Purchase Orders the Part Records representing these parts, are created in EZ-MES. The Part State for these parts is ORD (On Order). When the parts are received the Part State will automatically change from ORD to RMI (Raw Material Inventory).

Scrapped, Deleted and Consumed Parts

At the instant parts are scrapped, deleted or consumed by a process flow the Part State changes to either scrapped, deleted or consumed respectively.

The difference between a consumed part and the other two states is that one can use a consumed part again. Scrapped and Deleted parts on the other hand are removed from the system and can't be used again. Or a special flow needs to be setup that can deal with those parts. For example a Repair Flow.
