About ERP and MRP Discrete Software Systems
Discrete ERP and discrete MRP manage all aspects of production, procurement, inventory, and so on within a manufacturing environment. This includes manufacturing products via repetitive processes. Theoretically, products, once assembled, can be disassembled into separate (discrete) parts, unlike products derived from process manufacturing. Discrete ERP applications, like all ERP software, aim at full integration of management, staff, and equipment.
Difference discrete manufacturing and process manufacturing
As stated earlier, products made by discrete manufacturers can, in theory, be disassembled. Process manufacturers (or continuous manufacturers), on the other hand, make products that cannot be disassembled into their component elements (ex: spray paint, whiskey, talcum powder).
In general, discrete manufacturing uses bills of materials (BOMs); process manufacturing uses formulations, also known as recipes. In discrete manufacturing, a multi-level BOM is used to produce a finished good, indicating the base unit of measure with all the lower level assemblies and subassemblies featured below. In process manufacturing, all sequential steps are held within the product formula, including all relative secondary products.
