Hello,

We are thinking about some changes inside our daily routines with the refill of our production areas.

We are working with 25kg bags(between 500 and 1000kg /pallet) and have not so much space inside our production area to handle 10 pallets there.

Now we have build up each item into single handling units and would like to create a automatically process if the qty inside the prod area is lower than 50kg , please refill with a transport task from stock warehouse.

Is here somewhere how can help to fix this process, to make the handling easier for all employer inside production and internal logistics? 

Have you tried creating a Kanban circuit? 

Have you tried creating a Kanban circuit? 

Hi Björn, 

no we haven´t done it for this parts.

This parts are only Raw-Materials and needs to be refilled by moving from Main Warehouse into a fixed Production Area.

Yes that can be supported by creating a kanban circuit that automatically refills a specified location (in the production area) from a specified location group (the main warehouse) using a transport task.

Hi Björn, sorry but this can´t work in our System, because we haven´t this software tool included.

 

I have tested Remote and Refill, but this is also not working, because i can´t fix somewhere the max. QTY in one location. The system generates for this location transport tasks about the hole balance from stock to deliver inside this location.

Hi Thorsten, agreeing with Björn that Kanban is most appropriate here. In case of licensing restrictions you could:

  •  Define putaway rules for given part on given location
  • define maximum capacity on given location
  • trigger ‘perform putaway’ on stock records not on that location with an event/action or schedules batch job

Hi Roel,

Thanks for the info, that is my Problem, i haven´t this tool included our IFS Version. I need to be contact my IT Department and my Management to get this function inside IFS.

 

I will check the Perform putaway way.
