Sector-specific functions in unitop

Our ERP solution for the series production sector – its main functions at a glance

Material allocation & availabilities

Availabilities, proposed delivery deadlines and automatic releases ensure that production is supplied with the raw materials it needs.

Detailed planning, shift system & managing bottlenecks

Plan your finite capacities across workplaces and shifts: staff absences and bottlenecks are automatically taken into account, and sequences and deadlines are automatically modified.

Order processing, delivery rules & despatch

Call-offs and framework agreements are implemented reliably – including tolerances, minimum quantities and deadlines in a specific calendar week. From stock replenishment and commissioning to hand-over to despatch: our WMS add-on is ready to take care of your warehouse and despatch processes.

Shopfloor feedback & production cockpit

Thanks to role-based user interfaces, you can capture your production confirmations in real time: quantities, timings, wastage information and reasons for outages. The actual values are available down to workplace level and feed directly into your final costing.

Quality assurance & evidence

Goods inward and in-production testing are controlled using defined test schedules and measuring equipment is traceably managed at all times. All test results can be documented securely in audit-ready form.

Contract manufacturing & provisioning

Contract processing, component provisioning and goods inward processes are displayed in unitop from start to finish – including goods ordered directly from within manufacturing processes and the return of unused goods to the warehouse.

Tool & mould management

The service life, places where they are used and the availability of your tools are in view at all times. As maintenance intervals and set-up groups are displayed in a practical way, your sequence times will remain stable.

Seamless connection of specialist software & devices

Whether MES, production data acquisition/MDC, CNC controls, CAD, IIoT or test rigs are involved, unitop provides open interfaces that make individual integration scenarios possible. Devices on the internal network can be securely connected via the unitop HUB – the data never leave your IT environment.

AI event & incident management

Using our AI basics add-on, incoming call-offs, despatch advices or complaints can be categorised and assigned to the relevant processes or contacts automatically. Relevant changes (to deadlines, quantities or master data, for example) are recognised and presented in unitop in the form of targeted recommended actions.

DMS, EDI, MDC & BI

Additional key functionalities for your series production processes

Alongside the core, sector-specific functions, unitop also provides some powerful, additional functionalities to make your processes even more transparent and efficient:

Using the integrated DMS, you can archive your factory and test certificates, acceptance records, material certificates, order and delivery documentation and correspondence directly in unitop. All documents can be linked to processes and stored securely in an audit-proof way.

With unitop, documents and master data information can be shared with customers and suppliers automatically – shortening processing times, reducing errors and ensuring transparency during planning, procurement and despatch.

Movements of goods, transfers and production feedback can be captured directly in the production hall and the warehouse – by mobile app or scanner. Stocks, orders and batch transfers are kept up to date and full traceability is guaranteed at all times.

Key performance data on line performance, adherence to deadlines and stock turnover are available in real time. Threshold values and notifications assist you in your day-to-day control; by selecting detailed views, you can switch from a key performance indicator to the underlying entries or series numbers.

Innovating. Transforming. Succeeding.
