Production Planning for Jewelry

In jewelry, gram-karat precision, precious-metal/stone tracking and labor cost require functions to track value and loss down to the smallest unit. Manage production operations end to end — from bill of materials and routing to capacity planning, work orders and shop-floor tracking. Fully integrated with sales, purchasing and inventory; efficient, transparent and data-driven production.

Jewelry context

Why Production Planning works differently in Jewelry

In Jewelry, jewelry production center on sector-specific concepts such as gram-karat-based stock, precious metal and stone, model/collection. In jewelry, gram-karat precision, precious-metal/stone tracking and labor cost require functions to track value and loss down to the smallest unit.

Qera ERP's Production Planning module is set up around the reality of jewelry: Schedules model and collection-based production with labor and scrap allowance.

When gold/silver isn't tracked by weight and karat, stock value and cost can't be calculated clearly.
When precious stones (diamonds, etc.) aren't tracked by their unique attributes, inventory and cost control become hard.
When labor, loss/scrap and metal price swings can't be reflected in cost, profitability stays invisible.

Capabilities

How Qera Production Planning works in Jewelry

The core capabilities of the Production Planning module, framed for the gram, karat and model/collection needs of the jewelry sector.

Bill of materials and routing definitions

Define raw material bills of materials (BOM) and operation routings for each product; manage recycling and scrap with teardown BOMs as well.

Capacity and scheduling

Create new plans, planned production runs and a production schedule that takes machine and labor capacity into account.

Pending planning

List approved but unplanned work orders and orders; distribute the workload effectively by seeing priority jobs.

Work orders

Define each production job as a work order containing materials, routing and planned dates; give the shop-floor team a clear roadmap.

Station and shift management

Monitor station states (idle, busy, faulty) in real time; manage operation start-end times and shift plans.

Production reports and dynamic analysis

Measure efficiency with production process, standard-vs-actual time, operation and work-order reports; see product profitability by combining with financial data.
