Supply chain and production

Plan production from the bill of materials to the finished product

You know what to produce, what materials it needs, and what it costs, with stock updated as production runs.

SmartERP Manufacturing: Manufacturing orders
Real SmartERP screen with sample data: Manufacturing orders.

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.
