FAQ
Production Scheduling FAQ
Can we schedule across multiple machines or work centers?
Yes. Define your resources (machines, work centers, people, or any combination) and schedule jobs against them. Each resource has its own capacity and calendar. See load across all resources at once.
What happens when actual production differs from the plan?
As workers update job progress, the schedule reflects reality. Jobs that run long automatically push downstream work. Jobs that finish early free up capacity. You always see both the plan and actual status.
How does scheduling connect to job costing?
They're the same system. Scheduled hours become estimated costs. Actual hours become actual costs. You get production visibility and financial visibility from one platform.
Is this too simple for complex routings?
Jolted handles multi-operation jobs with dependencies. An operation can require the previous step to complete before it's scheduled. For most job shops, this covers 95% of scheduling needs without ERP complexity.
What if we need to reschedule everything for a rush job?
Drag the rush job where it needs to go. The system shows what else gets pushed. Accept or adjust until you have a workable plan. Takes minutes instead of hours.
