"Missing resource for operation '%1'." Why do you receive this notification and what can you do to resolve it?

"Production order '%1', subassembly '%2': Resource '%3' cannot be planned. Maximum number of attempts exceeded." Why do you receive this notification and what can you do to resolve it?

Of course, you want to have the leave hours of employees properly arranged. In MKG, it is possible to create/modify the leave balance, or budget hours, for individual employees, for certain job groups, or for all employees. In this guide, you will learn how to do this easily.

Planning production orders brings together data from all over MKG, such as operations and resources, but also employees and time registration. If an operation goes differently than planned, a notification may arise. What does such a notification mean and what triggers it? This article provides an overview of all planning notifications.

The man-machine ratio (MMR) is the ratio between the number of hours a machine can run with or without an operator. For example, if half a man-hour is required for each machine hour, then the man-machine ratio is 0.5 (also known as man per machine). In ERP, you enter the MMR in the 'Operations' table for each operation.

To work with production locations, MKG must be properly configured. This article explains which administrative settings and tables are important.

To plan, resources must be entered.

We describe how to work with the schedule. We have entered several orders and defined several resources, in this case machines. For simplicity, we do not provide explanations of the buttons, screens, and controls here.

The 'Resource Calendar' allows for the setup of an availability calendar for the resource. This availability period can be linked to a resource.

In the process table 'Resource Group', a resource group can be defined. This can be used for reporting and for displaying a capacity overview.

By default, MKG plans based on operation sequence and structure. It is also possible to plan by phase. This is often used in machine manufacturing. In that case, engineering is performed first, followed by assembly.

To be able to schedule with a resource, the availability of the resource must also be specified for all days of the week and public holidays.

The capacity overview is a separate module in MKG that displays how capacity is planned relative to the available capacity.

From the Production Advice List, orders can be scheduled. The scheduled operations are displayed in the production schedule, resource schedule, and capacity schedule. This guide shows how to schedule a production order.

In addition to production orders, calculations can also be scheduled.

Door de actie 'Planning vrijgeven' uit te voeren zorg je ervoor dat de datum waarop het materiaal of een uitbesteding beschikbaar komt en de interne planningsdatum van de orderregel, teruggekoppeld worden naar de productieorder.

Samengestelde producten kunnen gefaseerd worden gepland. Als het veld 'Productiefase' wordt ingevuld op de productieorderregel, zal er in de volgorde van deze fase worden gepland.
