KANBAN System in Finsys

Origin of kanBan :-

Kanban (literally signboard or billboard in Chinese and Japanese) is a scheduling system for lean manufacturing and Just-in-Time manufacturing (JIT).

Kanban aligns inventory levels with actual consumption. A signal tells a supplier to produce and deliver a new shipment when material is consumed. These signals are tracked through the replenishment cycle, bringing visibility to the supplier, consumer, and buyer.
