For production managers and planners in the food and processing industry, linking dependent jobs is a real step forward. Previously, dependencies between mixing and bottling or packaging jobs had to be manually overseen and coordinated — a process prone to errors and time-consuming. Now, these links are directly mapped in the system: If a job is rescheduled, the configured behavior for dependent jobs can automatically take effect. This reduces planning errors, creates transparency across the entire production chain, and gives planners the control they need — directly within fabular., without external tools or manual coordination.
The linking of dependent jobs is available in production planning. There, mixing and bottling/packaging jobs can be directly linked to each other. The behavior when rescheduling dependencies — whether dependent jobs are automatically rescheduled along with them or a warning is issued — is controllable via configuration. For initial setup, we recommend defining the appropriate rules for your production process together with the fabular team.
Let's discover together how fabular can make your company more efficient.
