Parts Store Room:

Develop Central Parts cage will provide Management: Work orders in CMM support component planning. Stock items as well as non-stock items can be planned on work orders. Stock items create reservations instantly on saving work orders. Materials are issued to work orders from stock. If parts are not available in stock, system creates purchase requisitions. Purchase requisitions are created immediately on saving work orders for non-stock items. System offers functionality to create planned, unplanned and emergency work orders.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                Functionality to support Spare parts management
