Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of product manufacturing technology, and in particular to a method and system for generating different product manufacturing process flows. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous improvement of information technology in the manufacturing industry, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems have been widely used in manufacturing enterprises to achieve integrated management of human, financial, and material resources. In actual production processes, different products often require different production procedures due to differences in their structure, processes, and customer customization needs. Traditional ERP systems typically develop a dedicated version of the production process for each type of product for users to choose from, making it difficult to flexibly respond to changes in new products and processes, thus affecting the coordination of enterprise production planning and execution. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this invention is to provide a method and system for generating production processes for different products.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 A method for generating production process flows for different products, including:

[0028] Step 1: Create process flow groups in the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system; bind each process flow group to a product on a corresponding production line.

[0029] Step 2: Set the group class for the created process flow group to obtain the process flow group with the group class set;

[0030] According to the production specifications and requirements of the product, the dialog box for adding a new process group is brought up on the list page of the process flow group. The dialog box lists the manufacturing standard code input box, product category radio button, product form radio button, status radio button, standard category radio button, filing remarks input box and steel grade code input box.

[0031] Step 3: On the edit flowchart page corresponding to the process flow group after the group class settings are completed, confirm the process flow diagram;

[0032] Step 4: Add preset production process specification data to the process flow diagram to generate the process flow diagram of the product to be produced;

[0033] Step 5: Store the process flow chart of the product to be produced into the database of the enterprise resource planning system. Input the product and retrieve the corresponding process flow chart to guide the production of the product.

[0034] The specific implementation methods for production process flows in an ERP system include:

[0035] (1) Create process flow groups in the ERP system and set the group class for the created process flow groups; each created process flow group corresponds to a product of a production line;

[0036] (2) Determine the content editing of each process module for each product according to the process flow diagram page corresponding to the process flow group, and set the specific content editing operation for one or more process modules in the process flow diagram;

[0037] (3) Standardize the input of group category settings and specific operation settings. Set the group category for the created process flow group. Specifically, after performing the add operation on the process group list page, bring up the Add Process Group dialog box. The dialog box lists the manufacturing standard code input box, product category radio button, product form radio button, status radio button, standard category radio button, filing remarks input box, and steel type code input box.

[0038] (4) Determine the process flow diagram according to the editing flow diagram page corresponding to the process flow group, specifically including: finished product specifications, release specifications, and process path specifications;

[0039] (5) Generate operations in the process flow diagram and simultaneously create a separate code; each code specifies the production requirements of the next-level process, and each code has an editable page, in which the product specification data and production process data are detailed. After generating the operations, a single flow diagram for the specific product is formed;

[0040] (6) When the production process results of the products to be produced are generated after the content of each module is completed, the flowchart operation will write the data into the database. After the data is successfully written, the settings for editing the flowchart will be completed.

[0041] (7) Later, the process flow chart can be retrieved by entering the product code in the system. During on-site production, the secondary system receives the process flow chart and performs smelting and rolling actions according to the requirements of each process. The sales department can also search for product standards and codes in the sales ERP system, and place orders as needed to complete the integration of production and sales.

[0042] Existing ERP production systems typically develop a dedicated version for each product type for users to choose from. The newly established single-code production process standard solves the problem of differentiated production requirements for different product specifications without incurring additional development and system maintenance costs. This invention, through the creation of process flow groups and group class settings, categorizes and templates common process flows, ensuring consistency in production process execution and achieving standardized production process management.

[0043] This invention also provides a production system for different product manufacturing processes, including:

[0044] The process flow creation module is used to create process flow groups in the enterprise resource planning system;

[0045] The group class setting module is used to set the group class of the created process flow group to obtain the process flow group with the group class set.

[0046] The process flow determination module is used to determine the process flow diagram on the edit flow diagram page corresponding to the process flow group after the group class has been set.

[0047] The production process addition module is used to add preset production process specification data to the process flow diagram to generate the process flow diagram of the product to be produced;

[0048] The product production guidance module is used to store the process flow chart of the product to be produced into the database of the enterprise resource planning system. Inputting a product will retrieve the corresponding process flow chart to guide the production of the product.

[0049] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the generation system for different product manufacturing processes provided by the present invention are the same as the beneficial effects of the generation method for different product manufacturing processes described in the above technical solutions, and will not be repeated here.

[0050] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
