How to Set Up Sequential and Discrete Production Processes?

In this tutorial, we will walk you through the complete process of creating Sequential and Discrete process groups in Logic ERP. These process groups help define how production operations are executed—either in a fixed order (sequential) or simultaneously (discrete). Let’s get started.

---

Accessing Process Group Setup

• Go to Production Module → Production Setups → Setup Process Groups/Processes.

• Existing process groups (if any) will be displayed here.

Creating a Sequential Process Group

Understanding Sequential (Dependent) Processes

• Sequential processes follow a strict order.

• The next process starts only after the previous one is completed.

Create a New Sequential Process Group

• Right-click on the process group list → New Process Group.

• Enter a suitable name for the sequential process group.

• The new process group will now appear in the list.

Add Processes Under the Sequential Group

• Right-click the newly created group → New Process.

• Enter:

  • Process Name

  • Rate Per Unit

  • Process Type: Sequential

• Optional:

  • Enable Allow Create Bundle (useful for innerwear production after cutting).

  • Define Bundle Prefix and Bundle Prefix Formula (used only in sequential processes).

• Click Save.

• The process (e.g., Cutting) is now added to the group.

Add Additional Processes & Subprocesses

• Repeat the steps above to add remaining processes.

• For subprocesses: Right-click on a process → Add Subprocess.

• Subprocesses help track worker-wise piece rates for multiple internal tasks (e.g., stitching line operations performed by different workers).

Sequential Group Completed

• After adding all required processes/subprocesses, your sequential process group is ready.

Creating a Discrete Process Group

Understanding Discrete (Parallel) Processes

• Discrete processes allow multiple operations to run simultaneously.

• Production does not follow a fixed step-by-step order.

Create a New Discrete Process Group

• Right-click on the process group list → New Process Group.

• Enter the appropriate name.

Add the First Assembly (Pairing) Process

• Right-click on the discrete group → New Process.

• Enter:

  • Process Name (e.g., Pairing)

  • Rate Per Unit

  • Process Type: Assemble Discrete

• Click Save.

Important

The pairing/assembly process must be created first, as all other discrete processes will be linked to it later.

---

Adding Remaining Discrete Processes

• For each new discrete process:

  • Enter Process Name

  • Enter Rate Per Unit

  • Select Process Type: Discrete

  • Choose Assemble Process: Pairing (or your primary assembly process)

• Click Save

Process Flow Guidelines

• All discrete processes from Cutting → Stitching must be defined as Discrete.

• Each must reference the Pairing process under Assemble Process.

Final Packing Process

• Since Packing is the final stage in discrete production:

  • Select Process Type: Sequential.

  • Save and position it after the assembly stage.

---

Manage and Organize Processes

• Right-click the process group to:

  • Edit a process

  • Delete a process

  • Rearrange process order as required

Conclusion

Using these steps, you can efficiently create and manage both Sequential and Discrete process groups in Logic ERP—giving you full control over production workflows and helping streamline your manufacturing operations.
