Tailoring ERP Interfaces to Real Shop Floor Needs
At MasMade ERP Inc., we design custom-built ERP interfaces that align with how your teams actually work.
A great example of this approach is the CNC Scheduling Dashboard, a fully web-based tool developed to replace a generic, underperforming desktop application and transform how work orders are visualized and managed in a manufacturing setting.
The Challenge
- The default scheduling module in the in-use ERP was overly generic and hard to use for the Production Manager.
- It was desktop-based, slow to load, and lacked real-time interactivity.
- Work orders couldn’t be visually scheduled, rearranged, or easily reassigned to different machines.
- The shop floor had no centralized, readable dashboard showing project needs and status updates.
Our Solution: Web-Based CNC Scheduling Dashboard
We developed a customized ERP web module that visualizes all CNC work orders in an intuitive, fast, and fully editable interface—accessible by both managers and shop floor personnel.
Key Features:
- 🧱 Editable scheduling board with drag-and-drop functionality
- 🏷️ Work order reassignment across CNC machines
- ⏱️ Editable durations and operation sequences
- 🔗 Hyperlinked part drawings for direct access from the dashboard
- 📦 Shortage alerts by linking each part to relevant projects in need
- 📊 Live overview of part codes, work order status, and job associations
- 🖥️ Fully web-based, built for speed and real-time access

Technologies Used
- JavaScript (front-end interface)
- REST APIs to interact with ERP data
- Custom ERP dashboard engine with editable grids
- HTML/CSS for responsive design
Results & Operational Value
