Sussex, WI - December 15, 2007 -- From Dash Inc., a new custom Scripting feature is one of the many highlights in newest release of jetStream mfg™ - Dash's simple, direct and visual shop management software for small and mid-sized manufacturers. jetStream benefits manufacturer's who need to synchronize demand with production through production optimization, setup reduction, and smoothly managing a high rate of change in a volatile environment. Users see significant returns on investment by driving down costs, improved throughput and on-time shipments.

jetStream is not only a powerful visual tool for planning production, but also a means for communicating that plan to the shop floor - and reporting activity.

It's new Scripting feature lets you customize what information you want to collect from your production floor. For example, based on the type of operation, and/or in specific work centers, you may want to use jetStream's 1-Click completion to report shop activity - Point, Click, Done. Under other circumstances, you may need ask the user to supply inspection details - or other "custom" information. jetStream's Transaction Scripting feature gives you the flexibility to decide what you want reported and when.

Scripting also allows you to trigger other external programs as activity is reported, for maximum extensibility. Launch other programs to print Bar Codes, capture quality information on a spreadsheet, or other custom applications - all without any modification to the core jetStream product.

jetStream mfg also features drag & drop planning - moving operations in time, and even to different cells or work centers, giving you maximum control over your schedule. Visual alarms highlight where problems are about to occur - making you more proactive. Auto-Sequencing gives you the power to define how you want things scheduled, and in what order - then automating the assignment of work to the right place, and in the right sequence to optimize your shop by significantly reducing change-over and setup time. Changes in order demands can be reflected instantly in jetStream - without the need to manually coordinate customer orders with shop orders. Production reporting can instantly update your inventory, keeping everything in sync at all times.

jetStream's is a powerful, yet very easy-to-use solution for your scheduling and production reporting needs - giving you complete control. Contact Dash or your Sales Rep today for more information about how jetStream mfg(tm) can help streamline your operation - or go to www.dashdev.com/jetStream/
