The Production Planner shows all of the open jobs in your shop, and sorts them by priority. This "big picture" view shows you start and due dates, production status, priority, and job duration. With horizontal bars to indicate how long the job will be active in your shop, you can pinpoint light workload months so you'll know when to take on more work or, if the shop is overbooked, staff up.

1. Manage traffic, schedules, resources and more using the Production Planner's toolbar buttons.

2. All of the shop's open jobs are listed in the Production Manager. You can sort the list by clicking on any column heading, but the highest priority jobs will always appear at the top of the list, demanding attention... and keeping you on track.

3. Whether you're using the desktop Production Planner or accessing it through the web, you see how many active jobs you need to manage and what steps to take to get them done.

4. Open any job ticket right from the Production Planner.

5. Only want to see your rush jobs? Then filter the list by priority using this pop-up tool.

6. The Production Planner shows six months' worth of work, but you can scroll far into the future -- a great way to plan for long-term traffic needs.

7. The Production Planner is included in My Clients & Profits! 5, so even your out-of-office staffers can see what's going on for months to come. Unlike the desktop version, the My C&P! Production Planner doesn't allow you to edit job traffic and resources.
