The problem
What goes wrong without it
Recipes and bills of materials are kept on paper, production is planned by memory, and material use is estimated instead of recorded.
The solution
How Manufacturing works in SmartERP
Manufacturing stores the bill of materials, creates manufacturing orders, reserves components from Inventory and records finished goods back into stock.
