Hi Adrian,
What are fixed assets in manufacturing: they are machines, tools etc
owned by the manufacturer and available in limited quantities.
In order to be sure that these assets which are used in a production run
are available at the time the production run is operating and that they
are registered in accounting for depreciation and that they are
maintained in asset maintenance.
you do not see that connection?
when not, can you tell me the difference between the fixed assets in
manufacturing and the ones in accounting?
Regards,
Hans

please look at:

where you can enter fixed asset types without a fixed asset id.

What do you mean "there are fixed assets but they are not connected
to the accounting system or asset maintenance"? Fixed assets are
"connected" to both.

We are getting more requests to implement OFBiz for manufacturing
companies.
In general they are pleased with the functionality except for the
production planning which is missing. Further there are fixed
assets but they are not connected to the accounting system or asset
maintenance.
What is needed is a scheduler which plans the production runs
looking at the last possible finish date and the available fixed
assets (machines/equipment/tools) used in the runs.
Question to the community:
Anybody already looked into how to do the production planning in
manufacturing?
