The workbenches assimilate all contributing information that is critical for planning and scheduling decision making and they provide capabilities for rapid manipulation of the plan/production schedule in discrete, repetitive, and mixed mode environments. As a result, your planner and scheduler can interact with the plan and schedule interactively during the day having all the required decision factors at their finger tips.
