Next week: Production Planning That Works.

Material shortages, priority shifts, capacity constraints, and customer changes can turn a good plan into a fire drill fast. Olena Stepovyk will show how to build schedules that reflect what’s really happening on the shop floor, and that give your team time to respond before problems become missed deliveries.

Production planners, schedulers, supply chain pros, and QAD users will come away with practical ways to build schedules that are more realistic and easier to execute. Bring your toughest scheduling questions to the live Q&A. Answers are transcribed and posted with the replay.

Production Planner started in 2010 with one manufacturing customer trying to streamline operations while keeping inventory low. Fifteen years later, it's evolved into a tool that generates 100% achievable production plans—and every major step along the way traces back to a real problem a QAD user brought to us.

Capacity constraints led to Capacity Check. Floor teams needed visibility, so we added the Schedule Graph View. The pandemic exposed supply chain fragility, so we built feasibility analysis to catch weak spots before they became failures. More recently, Master Scheduling, Optimization, and Pe***ng Monitor have given planners a 7-month view and the ability to connect shop floor activity directly to customer commitments.

It's a good reminder of how we build: we listen first, then build what's actually needed.

September: Making Cost Sets Make Sense, an on-demand session featuring Don Lindsey translating manufacturing operations into the "language of money" your finance team already speaks.

October: Production Planning That Works, a live session of digging into what actually drives reliable scheduling and how real customer challenges shaped our Production Planner with solutions architect, Olena Stepovyk.

November: Finding the Why Behind Production Cost Variances, a live workshop and first-time topic with Olena Stepovyk on tracking down what's really driving unfavorable variances before you close your books.

Customer schedules sent via EDI can shift fast. A 4-week plan comes in, then week 4 changes significantly, and suddenly you're scrambling to catch it before it disrupts inventory or production.

Our Customer Schedule Data Loader, now with enhanced features, gives teams an easy way to download and compare schedule changes as they happen. You can then react quickly, adjust inventory or production plans, and keep customers happy instead of caught off guard.

It also helps close out schedules tied to outdated part numbers, which quietly create duplicate demand if left unresolved, which is one more source of costly errors eliminated.

Don Lindsey has been in ERP and manufacturing long enough to know that not every problem deserves equal attention, and he's written a great piece on why Pareto Analysis (the 80/20 rule) has become one of his go-to decision-making tools.

Don’s take is that most of your operational pain—scrap costs, late deliveries, inventory risk, downtime—traces back to a small handful of causes. Find those, focus there, and the rest gets a lot easier to manage. He breaks down 10 ways this plays out in manufacturing, from inventory classification to quality control to audit planning.

Definitely worth a read if you're looking to cut through the noise and focus where it actually moves the needle: https://www.32soft.com/blog/10-reasons-why-i-use-pareto-analysis/

One of the most rewarding things we hear from clients is how they use our webinars—as real training and onboarding tools. Teams lean on them to bring new hires up to speed, reinforce best practices, and align cross-functional teams. It's a use case that emerged organically, and one we're proud to support.

With that in mind, I want to highlight a series that's especially useful for anyone evaluating or transitioning from Work Orders to Production Orders, because it covers setup, the full order cycle, scheduling and accounting challenges, and a dedicated session on the transition itself.

If your team is considering that move, these are worth sharing internally as a training resource, a discussion starter, or a way to align everyone before the transition.

NEW SESSION ALERT! We just added Finding the Why Behind Production Cost Variances to our webinar calendar for November.

This one tackles a problem a lot of QAD users quietly struggle with—production cost variances that erode margins and delay financial close. Olena Stepovyk, one of our brilliant Solutions Architects, will walk us through how these variances happen today, how costs flow through WIP, and how to investigate the drivers behind unfavorable numbers with far less manual digging.

Join live for a Q&A with Olena! —We’ll transcribe and post questions and answers alongside the replay, so nothing gets lost if you can't attend live.
