When ERP, MES and shop-floor data disagree, which one should be trusted?

[cantier]

In modern manufacturing, different systems can sometimes show different versions of production reality.


ERP may show one production status, MES another, while the actual shop floor tells a different story.


For manufacturing professionals here: how does your organization decide which system is the authoritative source of truth?


I'm particularly interested in how teams handle WIP, production status, quality data, and traceability across multiple systems.


We've been exploring this topic in more depth through a manufacturing whitepaper on execution authority and the system of record.


If anyone is interested, I can share the resource.
