PRODUCTION CONTROL SYSTEM

The present invention provides a production control system which ensures easy storage and management of information, and prompt and proper retrieval of necessary information in production sites. The production control system comprises a plurality of terminals provided in production sites and a central processor (5) connected to the terminals via a network (2). The central processor (5) comprises a production control information storage section (7,8,9) which stores information on production control, and a data distributing section (6) for retrieving production control information from the production control information storage section (7,8,9) in response to a request from any of the terminals and transmitting the retrieved production control information to the terminal having requested the information. The production control system can centrally manage the production control information on a paperless basis, and promptly and properly retrieve the necessary production control information.
