Work Orders or Jobs
Infor ERP SyteLine allows you to use jobs, also referred to as manufacturing work
orders, to track specific manufacturing processes, including labor, material, machines,
costs, scrap, work in process, and finished goods inventory. A job is a mechanism
to launch and monitor production to meet a planned requirement.
Jobs are very flexible and easily changed to meet a specific customer‘s requirements
and provide great detail in cost tracking and analysis. It‘s also a way to cross-reference
production to a specific customer order that needs to be tracked in detail. Jobs
have their own bill of material and routing structure and are individually released
to manufacturing. In addition, job definition for rework order processing is available,
allowing for recursive item repair use with planning impact basis.
- ERP SyteLine provides several methods of creating and defining a job; you can use
whichever method you prefer.
- Use the Material Planner‘s Workbench to manage the creation of all of your jobs
in a single screen.
- Link customer orders directly to jobs
- Schedule jobs based on finite and infinite forward scheduling
- Issue materials to a work order or back flush materials automatically based on operation
or job completions
- Validate material availability to determine whether or not a job can be completed
on time
- Review estimated versus actual costs by job
- Payroll integration
- Machine-hour reporting
- Create jobs for By-products, Co-Products or Rework

- Track all actual (or standard) labor and material, as well as WIP (work-in-process)
costs, through a detailed routing.

collection or back flushing.
