Production planning and production control integrated in your ERP system
With reybex, you have a complete overview of your production. With its intuitive and simple operation, mapping your production planning and production control is no longer rocket science.
Thanks to full integration with other reybex modules such as article master, inventory management and MRP (material requirements planning), as well as a transparent data flow, your departments work together effectively and in a coordinated manner. Optimize your delivery reliability through transparent capacity planning and a scheduling run that identifies and schedules all requirements at an early stage and on a daily basis.
The reybex production module consists of the following core components:
The production functions at a glance
Support for all types of production
Make-to-order production, series production, assembly with personnel planning
Capacity planning
Plan your capacities per department or machine, as well as set-up, personnel and machine times with separate capacity groups or together
Planning
Requirement dates can be transmitted to production system-wide and online. Flexible production planning via GANTT diagram. Optimize your deadlines with forward and backward scheduling, taking your free capacities into account.
Assembly production
Multi-level parts lists are recognized and can be produced as a collective order within a production order. Or reybex creates a separate production order for each assembly at the touch of a button. Do not tear production processes apart and produce the assemblies within one production order.
Just-in-time production
If you want to produce an assembly but do not want to create a separate production order for it, you can also produce this assembly within the order for the main item number and record the production times. Decide for each assembly whether it is to be produced within the main order or whether a separate production order is to be created.
Production data acquisition (PDA)
Whether one PDA terminal per machine or as a central workstation: you can manage all feedback centrally. Faults are registered immediately. External suppliers can also be seamlessly integrated into your production with the extended workbench.
Capacity planning
Perfect capacity planning allows you to make optimum use of your company’s resources. Plan your machine and personnel capacities per department or machine to avoid last-minute changes. Traditional ERP software often does not take limited capacities into account and therefore does not reflect reality. With reybex, however, you can plan your production capacities intelligently and dynamically and work with real-time data at all times. This allows you to identify bottlenecks at an early stage and at a glance and take appropriate measures. You also ensure delivery reliability and therefore satisfied customers.
Production planning
Plan your production processes completely with reybex, regardless of whether they are short, medium or long-term. Demand dates can be forwarded directly to production. By using forward and backward scheduling, free capacities can also be utilized and deadlines optimally planned. This ensures that deadlines are met and lead times are shorter.
Production data acquisition (PDA)
Production data acquisition (PDA) gives you an overview of the current status of your processes. Both organizational (order data, personnel data) and technical data (machine, material and process data) are recorded and processed centrally in the system. This allows machines to be optimally utilized and orders to be ideally controlled. In addition, faults are detected immediately and can be eliminated quickly. This increases efficiency in the company and leads to optimized work processes.
Extended workbench / external processing
For a work step that is carried out by an external service provider, you can use the work plan to control that this step is also displayed in the PDA terminal and can be logged on and off there. This means you always have an overview of which semi-finished parts you have sent to which supplier.
A delivery bill is created automatically and can be attached to the goods.

Production orders
The production orders give you an overview of which products are being planned, which are currently being produced and which have already been completed. Specify the quantities to be produced and the date, check the available quantities and enter the materials, machines and working times to be used. The clear Kanban board helps you to visualize your production. This allows you to keep track of the status of your production orders at all times!
When the quantities are reported as completed, many production orders can be reported as completed with a single click. The quantities are automatically allocated to the individual production orders. The times of the machines and personnel are also distributed evenly across the individual operations, saving you a lot of time when logging on and off. You benefit from qualitative PDA data and have these reported in total in the shortest possible time.
Parts lists & work plans
Work plans are available to help you plan your capacities optimally. Individual production steps can be summarized and distributed to your personnel and machines. Enter the required capacities such as planned set-up, machine and working times and the exact work steps for manufacturing your products. The parts lists provide you with all the relevant information about which and how many components are required to manufacture your products.
Production planning systems (PPS systems): Tasks & goals
Production planning systems (PPC systems) support industrial companies in planning, controlling and monitoring production and serve as a support for decision-making in various departments such as production, purchasing or sales.
Essentially, PPS systems have the following tasks:
- Production planning
- Material requirements planning
- Zeit- & Kapazitätsplanung
- Auftragsfreigabe
- Order monitoring
The main aim of using PPS systems is to make optimum use of resources, achieve shorter throughput times and ideal material stocks and meet production deadlines. If production planning and production control are part of an ERP system such as the one from reybex, personnel resources can also be planned and finances monitored.
Is your production planning ready for the future?
Production planning and production control (PPC) are the linchpin of every industrial company and play a key role in value creation. Optimizing production is therefore a decisive factor for the long-term success of manufacturing companies. The primary goal is to ensure a smooth and efficient production process. However, advancing digitalization poses challenges for SMEs, as short delivery and throughput times are becoming increasingly important in order to keep up with the competition and ensure satisfied customers. At the same time, however, the quality of the products must not be neglected.
With a modern ERP system, you are ready for digitalization
Only with good planning of material usage and personnel is it possible for a company to remain competitive. A future-proof ERP system such as reybex is therefore essential in order to react quickly to current and future challenges in the context of digitalization and to facilitate production tasks. At the same time, you can save on production costs and increase your profit margin by using high-quality ERP software. By integrating article data, inventories and material requirements into the production module, you also ensure optimal and smooth processes at all times. reybex is therefore the right partner for every manufacturing company, regardless of whether it is individual, series, variety or mass production.
