Manufacturing Integration - Resource as Operators

Microsoft Dynamics Business Central does not use Resources in manufacturing; instead, human, capacity is defined in Work Centers and / or Machine Centers. In order to realize an integrated Resource Planning Industrial Equipment Manufacturing (JMS) Manufacturing Integration links Resources to Machine Centers which means also Resource Tasks and Assignments can be created.
This feature makes it possible to separate operator time from machine time with the following advantages:

  • Makes detailed planning and calculation possible.
  • Enables "unmanned" machine hours where the machine is started, paused and stopped by the operator.
  • With the added resource task feature to also post material consumption it creates the basis for shop floor management on mobile devices supported by BC Anywhere.
