Production procedure planning system and method

Abstract

A production procedure planning system and a production procedure planning method are applicable in a data processing device connected to a resource management system. A production schedule for a product to be manufactured is arranged by a scheduling mechanism, and content of a production procedure to be planned is computed by a factory planning mechanism compute according to the production schedule, so as to plan and send the production procedure to the resource management system. The resource management system generates a production procedure required for a production line according to the planned production procedure and sends the generated production procedure to the production line such that the production line can perform production according to the production procedure. By the above production procedure planning system and method, the production schedule can be applied to the product line without requiring complicated processes for planning production procedures, thereby effectively reducing the production cost.
