Adjutant’s Auto Alert feature is a sophisticated alerts system that automates the notification of employees, customers, vendors and others of critical events as they happen. It provides valuable information the instant you need it and enables you to focus on important events as defined by you. Auto Alert enables companies to meet deadlines and service level agreements by keeping your customers and employees informed with necessary real-time information.

The Auto Alert system is integrated with your email system to deliver rich-content, event-based emails directly to your customers from your company’s email domain. Alert emails can be customized using our Email Templates application to include your company logo, graphics, contact details, web links to company resources, and even links to Adjutant records in some cases. The flexible and powerful Email Templates application allows you to create Auto Alert emails with detailed information about the orders, shipments, invoices, and other records so that your employees or customers have all the information they need whether they are in the office or on the road.

Our advanced Work flow Routing application can create multi-step, conditional alerts that are automatically routed to the right people based on the actions being completed or based on the status of the records. Whether you need to know when the Cabling department has finished their work on a large production order, when a project moves into the next status, or when certain order types are created, Adjutant can give you all the information you need as soon as it happens.

Many of the Auto Alert processes will also include the associated documents, such as the sales order, purchase order, production work order, and so on. This gives your people absolutely everything they need to make the decisions and keep things moving forward no matter where they are. It can also give your customers the peace of mind and confidence that their business is being handled professionally at all levels.

Adjutant’s Production features automate manufacturing and assembly from start to finish, with clear visibility into each step of the process and full integration with Adjutant’s other modules. Production work orders list every part needed for assembly or fabrication based on a Bill of Materials with allocations and detailed inventory tracking. Scheduling and creating work orders happens with the push of a button from the sales order. Production work can be generated all at once, by department, or by individual line item depending on how your shop operates.

Adjutant’s Bill of Material defines the relationship between a manufactured or processed item and the component materials or tasks required to assemble it. It maintains unlimited levels of component breakdowns and works equally well for manufacturing and process industries. The Bill of Material allows both physical items and standard tasks to be components in the production process. To accommodate real world manufacturing, we have extensive support for substitution of alternate items at the time of processing. Alternate Items can have completely different requirements for quantities than the normal bill of material. For example, a build may take 5 1-inch screws or 4 1.5-inch screws.

Working in conjunction with the Production and Bill of Material modules, Production Work Order Routing facilitates the scheduling and management of a production work-flow environment. It manages the execution of a predetermined schedule and automatically updates the schedule based on a variety of variables. Increase productivity, decrease costs, and receive better labor and material projections with the Adjutant Routing module. The Production Scheduling tool offers a way to manage the production work orders in your shop with an on-screen display based on production plant and due date. From one screen, you can quickly find orders using common filters and reschedule, reprint, or change orders with just a few clicks.

The deep integration with other Adjutant applications and detailed tracking for every step of the process provides you with complete visibility into the production process. Inventory accounting is immediately created both for work-in-process allocation and final assembly. Detailed reports offer a complete accounting picture of raw material costs and finished good inventory value. The finished product is created as a new item in inventory, and the entire life cycle of the finished good is trackable from production to sale.

Handling production discrepancies or material assignment issues are quick and simple to correct. Common production corrections are easily handled with the press of a button. Adjutant’s detailed tracking, powerful reporting and production management tools help you find issues as soon as they happen and makes it easy to correct the situation. Plus, the production module has built-in safety checks that help alert you to allocation mistakes, incorrect materials, incomplete assemblies, and many more issues that can slow you down, cost you money, or harm you customer satisfaction level.

Adjutant’s Wireless Warehouse (WMS) was built from the ground up, applying only the best principles and practices from the top experts in the warehousing industry. It utilizes incredibly stable, wireless bar code technology and provides comprehensive, real-time visibility of every activity in your warehouse. WMS handles receiving, put-away, picking, packing, and complete inventory management. And because Adjutant Wireless Warehouse is modular and scalable, you can be assured it will be the perfect fit for your company.

WIRELESS SHIPPING INTERFACE - WMS can revolutionize your loading and shipping operations with real-time activities happening on the shop floor updating every associated screen in Adjutant instantly. Everyone will see loading activities and shipping status updates as they happen. The shipping integration module covers creating, labeling, and loading cartons all from the wireless scanner. There are also built-in scanner tools for managing your cartons during the process. Labels are printed automatically from scanner operations and all labels include the bar codes needed to make working with carton operations as simple as scanning a bar code. The scanner process also covers loading the trucks with packed cartons, making the entire process and end-to-end solution that is fast and easy for everyone to understand.

WIRELESS INVENTORY MANAGEMENT - The WMS integration with Adjutant’s Inventory Management system can make inventory cycle counts so easy that you’ll want to do them more often. Cycle counts can be created and sent directly to certain scanners, so the counters are assigned to exactly the inventory locations or items that they need to cover. No more confused or missed counts. The cycle count prompts on the scanners walk your employees through the process offering little room for error. Cycle counts can be quick, painless, and most of all accurate. Scanners can also be used to check inventory levels, manage inventory locations, and produce inventory labels on-the-fly. Item shelf labels are bar coded to make quick inventory checks for on-hand levels simple and fast.

WIRELESS PRODUCTION - Adjutant’s Wireless Shop Floor integration with the Production module can eliminate the paper trails and hand-written assembly details that slow down production and cause errors. Your shop floor employees can scan and assign the right quantities directly at the source and complete the assembly process just by following a few on-screen prompts. The production scanner prompts keep your employees on track with a repeatable, easy-to-follow process that checks for errors as they go. Scanner operators are immediately notified of material assignment differences and prompted to verify any discrepancies. Scanner logs track every operation and full scanning history logs are available to show each user and scan, so you can follow up on any training issues. Hand-written material assignments can’t do that.

Production scanner prompts are also flexible and Adjutant has unique prompts that offer customizations for the different ways your production process flows.
Adjutant’s Wireless Shop Floor also provides tools for managing coil inventory on the floor, performing and recording inspections, processing scrap, and producing labels for finished goods. With a few scanners in the right place, you can control the production floor by vastly improving efficiency, increasing visibility, eliminating paperwork bottlenecks, reducing errors, and creating easy to follow processes that keep your team moving.
