01 / PRODUCTION PLANNING

Connect work orders with the schedule

The production planner brings work orders into daily, weekly, hourly and monthly views. See the scheduled line and shift beside the backlog. Orders retain their product, quantity, priority and customer context, helping planners review what should run next.

In the demo

Find a work order in the backlog, review its requirements and inspect where it fits into the line and shift structure.

02 / PRODUCTION PLANNING

Review the resources behind the plan

A schedule depends on more than the number of available hours. The planner links to capacity and employee views, while maintenance appears alongside production work. Material availability and reservations provide additional readiness context for the team to review.

In the demo

Check line capacity, maintenance and workforce coverage, then inspect material readiness for the work being planned.

03 / PRODUCTION PLANNING

Bring execution back into planning

The line board compares production with the shift plan. When progress changes, Shift Outlook and the constraint views provide context for reassignment or rescheduling. Governed intelligence proposals separate a possible change from the human decision to execute it.

In the demo

Compare the schedule with production progress. Review the effect of a proposed change on eligible lines, materials and due dates before approving it.

BUYER QUESTIONS

Before your
product demo.

Can we schedule work across lines and shifts?

The production planner supports work-order scheduling across the factory’s line and shift structure. Its views connect scheduled work, maintenance and the backlog.

Does MagicWand replace our ERP?

MagicWand focuses on manufacturing execution and factory operations. Assess the data mapping and enterprise integration approach against your ERP during a product walkthrough.

Are recovery schedule changes automatic?

Factory intelligence can prepare rescheduling proposals for review. Proposed changes and executed changes are distinct stages, with human approval in the governed workflow.

What should we prepare for a planning demo?

A few example work orders, their priorities and due dates, plus your line, shift and maintenance structure. We can use demo data to discuss how the views relate to your current planning process.

How do we review a changed order priority?

Start with the work order’s quantity, priority and customer context, then review its scheduled line and shift alongside the backlog and readiness evidence.

Is the planner a complete MRP or automatic optimization system?

This page describes the evidenced work-order, line and shift planning workflow. Bring any requirements for purchasing, material-requirements calculations or automatic optimization into the fit discussion; those capabilities should not be assumed from the schedule view.

SEE MAGICWAND IN ACTION

Bring one planning problem to the demo.

Describe the order priorities or shift changes your team keeps revisiting. We’ll show the planner and readiness views, then discuss your current systems and the data requirements.
