A Product Template in ProdSys is used to standardize and streamline the creation and management of products in the production process. The product template serves as a predefined model or blueprint containing all the necessary specifications, bill of materials (BOM), workflows, and production steps for a product. By using a product template, businesses can achieve the following:
Standardization:
Product templates ensure that products are created with consistent specifications, workflows, and quality standards, which reduces the risk of errors and variations in production.
Efficiency:
They simplify the creation of new products by utilizing a predefined structure. This saves time and effort, especially when products share similar components or production steps.
Faster Creation of Production Orders:
With product templates, companies can quickly generate production orders without needing to manually set up all the details each time a product is to be manufactured.
Material Management:
Product templates include detailed BOMs (Bill of Materials), specifying the raw materials and components needed to manufacture a product. This helps in managing and planning procurement and production.
Scalability:
Product templates enable easy scaling of production since the templates can be used to create multiple units of the same product without needing to adjust each production process individually.
