Alastri is pleased to announce the release of v24.2. This is a major release mainly focused on adding and enhancing features in Alastri Production Scheduler and Alastri Tactical Scheduler. Additionally, setup tasks that exist in APS that improve the overall usability have been integrated into ATSthat incorporates two major enhancements to Production Scheduler. Expression Builder gives the ability to calculate database fields without the need for custom extensions, and Feedable Stocks, which gives the ability to calculate the amount of total material that can be processed at the end of each period that meets flow specifications. Additionally, upgrades and enhancements have been applied across all applications.
