| Do job operations extend across warehouses
or sites?

=
|
Multi-site does not support the planning of
production across sites. All operations must be only for the local site. All
outside production must be treated as an outside purchase in logic with
different item numbers. Multi-site supports the copy of current and single
level BOMs across sites.
|
=
|
One warehouse per site is designated for
production; any additional warehouses are designated for storing inventory.
This is also true for multi-site with multiple warehouses per site.

| Are capacity and manufacturing schedules
viewed across warehouses or sites?

| Do you make the same item at different
plants using different processes?
|
+
|
If your item run-times or routings are
different at different manufacturing sites, you probably need a multi-site
system.
|
-
|
In a single current site, you can have only
one routing and BOM for an item. (However, jobs can have different
routings/BOMs for the same item.)
