PlantTalk: Receive - Manufacturing Execution System

Utilizing the radio frequency (RF) barcode scanning technology, PlantTalk®:Receive is designed to streamline the receiving process for all parts and components coming in to be used in the manufacturing or assembly process. By capturing and comparing the pertinent barcoded information, such as Part#, PO# and Lot/Serial #, we can compare the actual received products against the expected receipts, based on the available Purchase Order information or the incoming supplier ASN.

• At the point of receipt, the product is tagged with a license plate label, summarizing the contents of the carton/pallet. This ensures end-to-end traceability and accurate production reporting for all parts that are brought for consumption at the production lines. After parts are received into a receiving location, they can be scanned to go to the holding area or to the assembly.

• Quality Inspection flag will be able to be checked off for any incoming materials that require inspection before they are put away in a warehouse and/or issued to WIP. This can by set up by supplier code or by specific part number.

• E-mail notification will be issued to Purchasing (and any other designated e-mail group) as the incoming materials are being received.

PlantTalk®:Receive can update the business system with the actual received information, provide variance and exception reporting and update the inventory levels within PlantTalk®:Inventory or other inventory systems.
