Manufacturing enterprises, is it better to pick up or make ingredients?

Mondo Education Updated on 2024-01-30

The issuance and handover of order materials, and the system and mechanism of filling in the picking list are trivial matters for the management of the entire factory. However, if the system design is inappropriate and defective, it will affect the material handover, which will cause the material and data to be disordered, the issuance and receiving efficiency is low, the production is delayed, and the order delivery is delayed in serious casesIt will also cause contradictions and disputes between the two departments of production and warehouse, affect unity, and affect their daily operations. Therefore, we must pay attention to this aspect and straighten out the system and process.

Picking system:That is, when the order is produced, before the order is put into production, the production department needs to open a picking list, and go to the warehouse to take out the materials needed for this order to the warehouse and put them in the production department to prepare for production, which is generally responsible for the production department picker

Ingredients:It means that the production department does not need to pick up materials in the warehouse, before the order production is launched, the warehouse keeper will take the initiative to distribute the materials to the production line, as long as the production department picker counts and confirms the signature to receive it, some production departments do not even configure the picker, directly signed by the line chief supervisor or team leader.

1. Comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of the picking system and the ingredient system

1.Picking system: benefitsIt is the production department that bills and picks (If there is a system, the system will automatically place an order, and there is no need for the production department to open itThe production department masters the time point and rhythm of the batch, which is convenient for the production department to arrange

Cons:If the production department is not familiar with the BOM meter, it is easy to open the wrong quantity or the wrong specification and model, which will affect the material pickingIn addition, if the warehouse keeper is busy receiving, it will be necessary to wait, which will affect the work efficiency of the picker.

2.Ingredients:Benefits:It is the warehouse keeper who has the initiative to take the initiative to flexibly arrange his own time, and prepare the materials for production in advance before the production needs to be sent to the production lineIn addition, compared with the picker of the production department, the warehouse keeper is more familiar with the specifications and models of the material, and the rigor of the data is also stronger, so the document is not easy to open wrong, avoiding a lot of trouble;Another advantage is that the production department can save the trouble of picking materials in the warehouse, and can save a picker, so that they can do a good job in production with peace of mind.

Cons:This invisibly increases the workload of the warehouse. If the warehouse is in and out of the warehouse frequently, the number of material types is large, the receiving and issuing materials are frequent and the workload of storage, movement and handling is relatively large, the warehouse warehouse keeper needs to be equipped enough in this regard, so that it can successfully complete the work of batching to the production line on time and quality.

In addition, the two sides must negotiate and formulate the specifications for the number of points and confirmation, so as to avoid conflicts and disputes between the two sides in terms of points and handover. There is a situation here: it is impossible for the warehouse keeper to distribute the materials to the designated location of the production line every time, and then leave after the production line inventory is confirmed, because most of the time it may take half an hour or even longer for a batch of materials to be counted.

Then the question arises: what if when it comes to use, a small number of (and important materials) are found?Of course, the warehouse keeper doesn't admit that you've signed it, and even days have passed;Production does not say so many materials, so many quantities, how can I sign after the two sides count in person, do I still have to manage production?

Therefore, regarding the material handover, it is necessary to formulate detailed and easy-to-operate operating rules in advance so that both parties can comply with them.

Second, which department will open the picking list?

This is not a problem for factories that are already in ERP systems. All of them are calculated and made by the planning and material control department in the system, and the system automatically prints the picking list, and the production department collects the voucher to the warehouse. However, there are still a considerable number of factories that do not have the system. So which department will open the picking list is a question.

1.The material control department opens a picking list:The material control department of the plan opens a picking list according to the order, and before the order is produced, it is issued to the production department together with the "work order", and the production department produces according to the weekly production plan

This also has the advantage that the planning department can accurately control the production sequence and production time of orders by issuing the "Picking List", strengthen the control of the production plan, and ensure on-time delivery.

2.The production department opens a picking list:The production department will open a picking list and pick up the materials in the warehouse before going online. The production department needs to fill in the "picking list", which is based on the received order "send work order", copy the material consumption part, may be a small amount of commonly used, low-value materials need to be calculated by themselves, and it is relatively simple, according to BOM standards, once or twice.

3.Open by the warehouse:Of course, the name is not called "picking list", just use the "outbound list" directly, otherwise the warehouse will issue materials to itself, and the procedure will be legal.

The specific method is: the production department received the "work order" on the order of various materials quantity details, the production department with the "work order" on the warehouse to pick materials, the warehouse also has the same "work order", according to the "delivery list" on the line. The outbound order is filled in by the warehouse keeper, reviewed by the warehouse supervisor, and signed by the picker of the production department, one of which is sent to the production department. Then the warehouse issues the material according to the order, and the picker takes the material back to the production department after counting.

What is the receiving and issuing system of your factory?What contradictions and problems have you encountered?What kind of picking or material distribution methods do you prefer?Please ** communicate with you.
