Abstract

The paper presents a method of the integration of ERP and advanced planning and scheduling (APS) systems extended with automatic generators of simulation models. The approach allows the use of simulation and visualization for rapid verification of production plans. Both integration module and model generator use data exchange and data transformation methods. The concept of data-driven modeling also allows to verify the obtained solution in terms of quality of production flow with full visualization of the processes occurring in the system. A practical example of simulation verification of a solution achieved in the APS system, using the method of automatic generation of simulation models has been shown. During the verification phase of the implemented methodology, the IFS Application - ERP system, Production Order Verification System (SWZ) for multi-assortment, concurrent production planning and Enterprise Dynamics simulation system integration have been used.
