I. Financials: 

General  Ledger   is at the heart of any accounting system. It keeps centralized charts ofaccounts  and  corporate financial balances. It supports all aspects of the businessaccounting process. In this module, financial  accounting  transactions  are  posted,processed,  summarized and reported. It maintains a complete audit trail of transactionsand enables individual business units to view their financial information, while  the parent

company can view the consolidation information. 

The software should support the functionality such as chart of accounts structure,   ledgerdevelopment  and  maintenance, financial consolidation and reporting, journal entry,

 journal voucher ledger transactions, ledger   controls,  multicurrency  accounting  andconversions, on-line enquiry, reporting, financial  statement  reporting,  variance  analysisand additional financial reporting. 

Covering GL  /  AP  /  AR  / FA / Cash Management. Following is an organization chart thatoutlines  the  structure  of departments and their hierarchy. The existing and plannedfinancial transactions are listed along with their effect on GL or sub modules. 

From the Financial Management perspective, the department is keen to provideknowledge and train employees that the information entered at the   initiation  point  of   atransaction  is accurate and budget control is applied at requisition level itself. The benefitof employing this policy is to cultivate an atmosphere of empowerment wherein  the staffon shop floor, engineering, maintenance understand the implications of their act and ownthe results of the transactions they initiate. 

The  benefit  of   minimizing errors at first level is that subsequent transactions carry thedata that is meaningful for financial reporting as well  as  provide  operational  reportingagainst  the  set  benchmarks.  Finance  department is looking into having an integratedsystem that is offering flexibility of process change in an evolutionary manner as well asprovide  check  and balance at various levels across organization. Such a system should

deliver online and timely reports as well as trigger alarms and alerts at occurrence of  setbusiness events. 

The  basic reporting for day to day departmental needs should have facility to selectspecific account range, sub account range, date range, transaction range  etc.  Thesummary reports are expected to include YTD, previous period, comparison with budgetand variances. 

Current and expected report formats are described in Appnedix A and it is expected tobe provided by the system. There may be some addition to the reports mentioned.

SALES 

The  sales  process  of   IndustryOne is pretty straight forward as they are starting withtwo (2) customers and number of customer will not exceed 10 in near future. The finishedgoods are  made  as per standard specifications and labeled as per requirement ofcustomer. 

The  production  is done based on the forecast provided by the customers, however toaddress surge and unforeseen situations IndustryOne plans to maintain  safety  stock  for  their customer. 

The Shipping/ Logistic department is responsible for arranging deliveries to customers. Thecans are sold as per the annual contract which specifies the price,  quantitycommitment and a monthly delivery schedule with a buffer of +/- percentage of  monthlyquantity. The monthly order has to be confirmed two months in advance so as to adjustproduction schedule accordingly. Customer specific price list facility of  ERP can addressthis requirement. 

The  contract  is  negotiated  with  customers  and in some cases, provision is made fordiscount as

PROCURMENT: 

The  procurement  function needs to have tight integration with other module with on-lineprocessing  capabilities  and  business  partner collaboration capabilities which could beextended to our suppliers. The online processing capability must  include document  flow  ,audit  trial, approvals, business alerts and alarm features. Security has to be built into thedocument flow system to apply proper access and authorities  to  individuals  in  such  away  that  only  the  document owner and subsequent approvers should access thedocument. 

Procurement Cycle Requisition or Re order generation -> Quotation Request / Analysis -> Purchase Order ->Inspection -> Goods Receipt -> Liability Recording and Payment. 

Purchase Requisition:  A purchase requisition can be generated directly by a user who needs specific item orservice. 

In cases where the reorder point of the inventory has arrived as a result of consumption

of Raw material or spares, a suggested order report will be generated. The suggestedorder is pulled into a purchase requisition. 

The requisition has to be approved by relevant approving authority (supervisor/ manager), to be considered valid for further action. 

Purchase requisition (after approval) is followed by 

•  Enquiry to Supplier -> Quotation - > Purchase Order  

Purchase requisition doesn’t gener ate any financial entry. 

 A control w.r.t budget is required at this stage so that users know whether budget is

available for the items/ services requested. In case the budget is not available, the usermay be warned, and transaction is recorded. However at the time of approval theapproving authority must also be notified of budget availability status, management willdecide how such situations has to be handled by defining the business policies. 

Fixed Asset purchases may also be initiated in this manner. 

The purchase requisition has to be cloned for usage by various users of differentdepartments to address different needs. Each such clone may have different approvingauthority. 

Based on the defined usage of each purchase requisition, a filter is required to limit user

so that he selects only valid items/ services, this facility ensures reduction in data entryerrors and separation of  activities as per profile of employees. Example 

•  Requisition for consumable / expense items 

•  Requisition for capital purchases 

•  Requisition for Imports 

 A shipment advice recording facility is required to record arrival of  shipment and notifyinternal staff so as to arrange clearance from customs.

INVENTORY: To broadly classify inventory is for Finish goods / Raw Material / Spares (Plant etc.) / consumables. 

Material Request: The transaction is an internal transaction wherein different department ask for material, service internally. This transaction  is followed by either Material / Service issuance or  a Purchase requisition which triggers the purchase cycle. This transaction  will be used  torequest spares from engineering stores while maintenance jobs are carried out.  

Material Request doesn’t generate any financial entry. 

Finished goods store receives goods from Production. FG are classified by customer / packaging   which forms an SKU (stockkeeping unit). All related reports for Finish Goods are in the standard unit of measure (PCS, 1000PCS, Pallets) 

Standard  costing method is applied to RM and Weighted average costing for all the items.  

Other   inventory  features like batch control / lot control , Transfer out and in, Min / Max and reorder planning, physical count, Adjustment  transactions etc. are anticipated  from the inventory system. 

Please provide sample of  standard reports available in the system. Also attached please find a list of reports which are required fromthe application. 

From the Inventory end please clarify the following: 

•  Beginning / ending balance reconciliation by item. 

•  Integration with purchasing / fixed assets/ production/ maintenance/ sales 

•  Multiple units of measures. 

•  ABC analysis 

•  Multiple UOM 

•  Min / max / re-order levels. 

•  Classification of Item master record.

•  Can we track Finish goods inventory by Lot / Production date 

•  Can system display available quantities by warehouse and total.  

•  For physical counts can  the  system support cycle counts and on entering inventory produce a variance, and make anadjustment voucher automatically. 

•  Can system facilitate a random count  cycle on an random  basis  for   Inventory personnel to verify. 

•   Are the following transactions possible – stock issue / adjustment / receipt / write offs. 

•  Can warehouse transfers issue a automatic gate  pass  to  be  printed  at  the security gate for items shipped out for repair. 

•  Can adjustment be on quantity or value or both.  How does adjustment affect GL. Please explain.

Function Mapping in ORION Sales Forecast   Based on the Financial Budget & Previous period sales, User will enter sales forecast.

  Yearly Sales forecast will be entered Product wise in the following sequence

⇒   Company Wise

⇒   Customer Wise

⇒   Product Wise  Sales forecast will be entered month wise for the above sequence with quantity and value.  This will be entered at starting of the financial year  This will be used to get the raw material requirements based on the lead-time.  Sales Forecast will be like a worksheet, User can amend the forecasted quantity.   ABC will use this Sales forecast as template.

Master Production Schedule(MPS)

Using Forecasted Qty & Open orders system will generate one master production schedule  for every week using this process.Planning calendar (Period) Can be one of the following as per the defined parameter:  Monthly ⇒  

Weekly ⇒  

Daily ⇒  

Twice in the month ⇒  

Fortnight ⇒  

Quarterly ⇒  

User Defined ⇒  

Thrice in a month⇒

 Planning period will be set in the planning calendar master accordingly master production  schedule (MPS) will get generated.CCMC will do the production planning weekly.  CCMC will use MPS worksheet as template for raw material planning and opening  production work orders.

Function Mapping in ORION Material Requirement Planning(MRP)

Based on the master production schedule, system will make material requirement planningconsidering following parameters:

Current stock in hand (Raw Material Store + Intermediate Store) ⇒  

Goods in Transit ⇒  

Pending Purchases orders ⇒  

In material requirement planning worksheet, user will verify the details for all items and will beable to generate the suggested purchase requisition for the raw and packing material.

Production Order(Work Order)

Production Order will be prepared based on sales order (Make to Order)

Every Finished Good Item will have one default Production line, this Production line will beconsidered for the production work order. (User can change the Production line at the time ofpreparing the Production Order)

Every Finished Good Item will have one default Bill of Material (BOM), this BOM will beconsidered for the production work order. (User can change the BOM at the time of preparingthe Production Order)

Need date will be asked as an input parameter, user needs to enter the need date and systemwill consider that as need date. If input parameter is not entered, then system will consider need

date as system date.

Based on the Production order, user can get the details of raw material required at each stage.

Production Planning & Scheduling: Based on Customer Demand Forecastgenerated  by  Sales  and Product availability (i.e. available SKU's in all the warehouses)production department plans their production schedule. 

Capacity planning: Every activity in the production cycle has its own speed  ratings.

These affect the other next processes. Therefore the line capacity will be narrowed downto the minimum speed activity. Based on such parameters the  line capacity  is formulatedand our  production capacity is planned. For e.g. we may be having very high speed filletsbut the palletizing activity may be slow which can affect the over all speed of the line. 

Bill of Material: for  every SKU that we produce we have bill of material for that. Thesematerials  can  be  water,  sugar,  concentrate, packing material etc.. Issues to productionare done on the formulation of the bill of materials. 

Material Requirement Planning (MRP): the  production department has a forecastand plan  to produce. Based on the forecast & plan the ERP should be capable to checkthe availability of raw materials and packing materials and run a MRP. 

Quality Control Management: Right  from  the  receipt of raw material to every stageof production quality control department is involved. Based on passing certainparameters  the QC department allows the processes to continue. They have formats inwhich they collect information and check against certain standards in order to release theproduct. QC department want these areas to be automated. 

From the Manufacturing following is required: -  User   defined  BOM codes for RAW Material, Packing Material, Finished

goods and WIP. -  For production data can the system capture work centre data / work centre

hierarchy / machine data / department data. -  Setup  runtime cost should define for individual operations. Run time shouldbe defined as per unit or per batch or as units per hour. 

-  Variable setup machine cycle time standards,  change  over?  (for   eachfinished  product  a  different  routing  can be used which may have differentmanufacturing times) 

-  Production Planning  – should receive data from customer driven forecast. Asexplained earlier. 

-  Production plan with reference to target stock levels, target supply dates. -  Interface with and transfer data to the Master production schedule. -  Master Production Schedule can be for any or both of  the environments  i.e.

make to stock or make to order. 

-  Consider customer driven forecast as inputs during scheduling. -   Available to promise – determine product availability of an item at any givenpoint of time. 

-  Integrate with Material requirement planning, capacity planning. -  In the capacity planning can the system support work centre capacity profile

definitions. -  Machine capacity definitions. -  Capacity  requirement  planning to validate the MPS planned orders against

capacity available. -  Can the system generate graphical representation of the above profiles. -  Production scheduling – discrete manufacturing scheduling. -  Scheduling preventive maintenance. 

-   Auto generate material request to support schedule.
