Corrugation - Kraft Paper - How to name the Paper .. in the Finsys ERP - Grade, BF, GSM, Deckle

Описание: Corrugation - Kraft Paper - Coding of Paper - New Ideas
concept of Kraft paper naming in your ERP

Whichever ERP software in the world you use.... contemplate on this idea.
Think if this is suitable for you

With our evolution, we feel that this is the good thought

in the Main Finsys exe , we have all 4
and in the Cloud based / Web based Finsys ERP we have dropped the mill name totally. And this is a conscious decision.

Raw Material - Logic

Example - No Grade and No Mill , and no BF
07010001 SK NAT 114.5 X 140 Gsm
07010002 SK NAT 114.5 X 150 Gsm
07010003 SK NAT 114.5 X 180 Gsm

Example - Grade Based ( Recommended )
07010001 NATURAL 18BF 114.5 X 140 Gsm (A)
07010002 NATURAL 18BF 114.5 X 140 Gsm (B)
07010003 NATURAL 18BF 114.5 X 140 Gsm (C)

Example - Grade Based ( Recommended ). And no BF
07010001 SK 114.5 X 140 Gsm (A)
07010002 SK 114.5 X 140 Gsm (B)
07010003 SK 114.5 X 140 Gsm (C)

Example - Mill name Based
07010001 NATURAL 18BF 114.5 X 140 Gsm (Vishwanath)
07010002 NATURAL 18BF 114.5 X 140 Gsm (MWV)
07010003 NATURAL 18BF 114.5 X 140 Gsm (Nithya Mills)






Topic 1 Master Files - Raw Materials ( Kraft Paper )
The Kraft paper are opened as per Finsys Standards with important fields of BF, Deckle Size, and GSM.
The item name is created automatically based on the unique combination of the above. ERP has a lock that Same combination cannot be opened as a duplicate item , at all .
Minimum level, Maximum level, reorder level, Standard BAY location, HS Code etc are entered for better ERP usage
Example : 02 series - RM- Paper in Sheets, 07 : Kraft paper in Reels, KG, 04 is Inks, and 05 is Adhesives and so on
Within the Kraft paper 07 series,…. 0701 will be 18BF , 0702 will be 20BF and so on..

Topic 2 Grade id attaching to the name is a good idea
A: Mills with paper of best possible quality and consistency
B: Medium Grade
C: Low Grade

Topic 3 Attaching Mill name to the Item Name
The Mill Name is also available as a important item name composition
However this is recommended only if the Mill Name is compulsory for more than 50% of your customers

Mill Name - Merits and Demerits

A) Advantages of having Mill Name
1) I can get Mill wise stock in hand of same item
2) how to bring mill name in the Tag ?
3) How to have mill name in stocks ?
4) Diff mills have diff quality, so, how to give diff quality templates for same paper code from same trader ?
5) What if your customer actually asks you to use paper of 1 specific mill only
6) Same Trader, selling paper of different mills ?


B) Disadvantages of Having Mill Name attached into the Item name
a) We all know that same paper specification may be manufactured by 1000 mills in the world
and your company may be buying that paper from 20 of them in 5 years. If you attach the mill name in the item name, then it will force the ERP to make 20 times each paper code
b) Creates more effort while making Purchase Requisition : PR , since multiple items of same grade Truth
c) Creates more effort while making Purchase Order : PO , since multiple items of same grade Truth
d) Creates more effort while making Process Plan : BOM , since multiple items of same grade Truth
e) Issue of Paper is also difficult for the stores people, since too many codes
f) Android App, difficult to issue material of different mill, than that originally planned, unless you change it in the job card and approve it
g) Backflush report is affected Truth
h) Material Requirement Planning is affected Truth
i) Inspection templates, separately for each mill ( volume rises )

Hence
So, you need to take a call based on above
