Products
They are located as the final form of items which manufacturing companies handle in the production-process, and define their characteristics. It can be said that their all activities start at the base point of their products. They make a Production Schedule of each product in the production plan, and plans the logistics of constituent items to produce products through MRP in the material plan. The bill of materials provided by the engineering division tells what items and raw materials the product consists of, and the production plan made by the planning division is based on when and how much quantity of product is produced.
