MAGI’s production scheduling module delivers all the tools you need for effectively managing the production portion of the business, including shop order tools, capacity management and more.
Business dynamics can cause MRP to alter the due dates on shop orders after production has begun. A dispatch screen sequences displays shop orders by their new due dates, workcenter by workcenter. This enables managers to keep the dates synchronized with requirements - without the daily expedite meetings.

MAGI’s "Critical Material" function will display all shortages required (purchased and manufactured parts) for any selected date or date range. This data can be further drilled down by workcenter or specific shop order.
Production reporting, shipping, receiving and other transactions can be executed via RF/barcode technology, touch-screen technology, or can they can be entered on a screen near the workcenter. Users can also submit transactions to centralized data entry personnel. WinMAGI provides you with the flexibility you need to accommodate your unique needs.
For workcenters with many past due orders, WinMAGI offers many user selectable prioritization routines. Give priority to the oldest orders, or the ones that will generate the biggest invoices, or the ones required for a critical customer, etc.
Besides the option of having a separate shop calendar for each workcenter, WinMAGI also offers separate calendars for shipping and receiving. Schedule constrained workcenters to work Saturdays without having the system think Saturdays are acceptable delivery dates for purchase orders or ship dates for customer orders.
For salable end items that are not carried in stock, WinMAGI offers the option of shortcutting MRP and having their shop orders automatically generated as part of the order entry process.
