Through analysis of demand, lead times, and order quantities, you receive well-founded recommendations for your procurement and production planning – for maximum efficiency and planning reliability.

  • Real-time dashboards for full transparency over material requirements

  • Automatic exception messages for rapid adjustment of orders

  • Support through a Master Production Plan (MPP)

Multi-level Bills of Materials & Routings

Keep your product structures, costs, and manufacturing processes under control at all times. With Haufe X360, you manage multi-level bills of materials and routings efficiently and create maximum transparency over your production.

Thanks to integrated revision control and flexible calculation, you optimize your product management and make informed decisions throughout the entire value chain.

  • Representation of unlimited fixed and variable overhead costs

  • Complete revision control including history and change tracking

  • Intuitive bill of materials designer with integrated cost calculation

Benefits of ERP-integrated production

Effective resource planning & inventory optimization

Respond flexibly to changing customer requirements and utilize your resources optimally. With Haufe X360, you plan precisely, optimize your inventory, and increase the efficiency of your entire manufacturing operation.

This way, you keep costs under control, avoid bottlenecks, and create the foundation for economical and high-performance production.

Adaptable and scalable for your growth

Adapt your manufacturing flexibly to new requirements. The versatile features of Haufe X360 support a wide variety of manufacturing types – from make-to-stock and make-to-order to series, batch, or project-based production.

This way, your solution remains adaptable at all times and grows with your company – regardless of how your requirements evolve.

Transparent cost control

Keep your production costs under control at all times. Track material and labor costs precisely and compare planned, standard, and actual costs to identify deviations early.

This way, you optimize your margins strategically and create the foundation for economically successful production processes.

All features of the production module

In this section, you will receive an overview of the key features of our production module. Discover how you can digitalize, optimize, and efficiently control your manufacturing processes.
Production Planning & Control (PPS)

Control your production efficiently and keep costs, resources, and schedules in view at all times. The PPS function of Haufe X360 supports you in optimally utilizing available capacities, reducing production costs, and reliably meeting delivery dates.
