This chapter explores integrated production processes (IPP) within modern accounting information systems. It highlights contemporary production trends, the role of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, and principal components of IPP. Key concepts such as automation, supply chain management, and just-in-time manufacturing are discussed. It also emphasizes the importance of cost management, the shift towards real-time data, and the need for adaptability in a dynamic manufacturing environment. Understanding these elements is crucial for effective production planning and decision-making.

Chapter 1 Chapter 13 Integrated Production Processes (IPP) Introduction to Accounting Information Systems
Learning Objectives • Appreciate contemporary production trends. • Understand role of ERPs in integrating total manufacturing environment. • Know principal components of Integrated Production Processes (IPP). • Recognize effects of automation on IPP. • Understand key inputs, outputs, files, processes. • Identify principal challenges/opportunities. • Introduce supply chain management software
ERPs - SAP Automotive Modules • Business Planning • Controlling • Finance & Accounting • Suppliers • Original Equipment Manufacturers • Aftermarket
Managing Throughput Times • Push Manufacturing • Sales forecast drives production plan • Goods produced in large batches • Jobs wait until machines ready • Pull Manufacturing • Idle machine pulls job from previous machine • Theoretically, job = “batch” of one unit
Features of Pull Approach • Short production runs • Continuous flow operations • Factory cells - all machines together • workers run more than 1 machine • Reduced WIP & FG inventories • Reduced floor space • improved layout/less inventory
Trends - Cost Management/ Accounting • Shift to reporting to assist strategic planning/decision making • Increased emphasis - managing costs v. accounting for costs • Attack waste Vs. reporting variances • Flexible cost systems - responsive to change • Shift - cost structure - variable to fixed costs
Trends - Cost Management/ Accounting (2) • Less DL - less use of DL to apply OH • Increase in OH component of total cost • 4th category (direct technology) added to DM, DL, OH • Use of Activity Based Costing (ABC) systems • Real-time data capture in factory • Shift from Std. cost systems to actual • Reduction in data-gathering costs • Collecting statistical + financial data
Trends - Cost Management/ Accounting (3) • Replace detail reporting by shop order and/or operation with actg. for cell throughput time • Use cell throughput time v. DL to apply OH • Trend towards process cost systems v. job order systems • For mgt. purposes, abandonment of absorption costing • Accumulation of costs for decision making vs. valuing inventories
Production Planning/Control Systems • Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) • Master production schedule • Materials requirements planning (mrp) • Shop floor control • Just-in-time
Just-in-time Objectives • Zero defects • Zero setup times • Small lot sizes • Zero lead times • Zero inventories
JIT Implementation Features • Arrange factory in U-shaped work cells • Assign 1 worker to multiple machines • Give production workers authority to stop the line if they are behind schedule or if they discover defective parts • Require nearly constant parts production schedule • Develop vendor cooperation re deliveries • Simplify system for tracking movement of goods through factory
Flexible Mfg. Systems Components • Group Technology • Computer-aided manufacturing • Computer-aided process planning • computer numerical control • robotics • automated guided vehicles • automated storage/retrieval systems • digital image processors • Automated data collection devices
Inventory system controls • Effectiveness of operations • maintain sufficient inventory to prevent stockouts • maintain sufficient inventory to maintain operational efficiency • minimize cost of carrying inventory • Efficiency of system operations • JIT materials acquisition • Warehouse bin locations • Resource security • periodic physical inventory counts • locked storerooms
