SchedulePro uses an intuitive recipe-oriented representation of a manufacturing process. It handles resources such as equipment, work areas, labor, materials, utilities and inventory capacity. It allows for interruptions in the availability of resources to account for shift schedules, holidays, and planned maintenance. SchedulePro is compatible with SuperPro Designer and can readily import its recipes. In addition, it can import recipes, resources, and production orders from ERP and other tools in flat-file format. SchedulePro is shipped with more than ten thorough examples for a variety of industries and applications.

The SchedulePro Production Suite is recommended for companies that use SchedulePro for day-to-day production planning and scheduling. The suite includes two web applications, the WebViewer and WebTracker, which interact with SchedulePro through a SQL server database. The production schedules are generated by SchedulePro and deposited into the SQL server database. Actual operation timing information and material transactions associated with the scheduled batches is specified through the WebTracker by authorized plant operators or supervisors. Plant managers and engineers rely on the WebViewer to view the status of the current production schedule as well as the scheduling changes that have occurred. Historical production data recorded in the database can be visualized and statistically analyzed. The WebViewer is equipped with user-customizable reports that display information at various levels of detail and scope (e.g., equipment-, staff-, suitespecific, etc.). Please note that the SchedulePro Production Suite workflow is only available in the full version of SchedulePro; it is not supported by the Demo, Lite and Academic editions of SchedulePro.
