QAD Planning and Scheduling Workbenches provide simultaneous visibility to plans, schedules and supporting data, enabling control and collaboration across the production and materials planning space.

The solution includes three key aspects:

• Production Scheduling Workbench (PSW) — learn how to make effective production schedules with production sequencing and order management (release/printing/splitting orders) from a single access point. Production schedule focus is typically a couple of days to a couple of weeks out.
• Component Availability Check (CAC) — integrated within the workbenches is visibility to material availability for the master and/or production schedule you created.

“Explore 2013 offers advanced training on MSW and PSW capabilities for our supply chain customers to enhance their skills and gain a competitive edge,” said Bernadette Bagley, director of education for QAD. “With the decision factors at their fingertips, customers get the hands-on training to leverage QAD Enterprise Applications for optimal efficiency.”

The training provides a great interactive environment to help our customers get advanced skills to leverage QAD ERP solutions, accelerate time to value and learn best practices from QAD experts, manufacturing partners and peers.
