Bill of materials & works orders
Control your
works orders and reduce the time they spend on the factory
floor. Combine multiple sales orders into a single works order and
merge them to increase the efficiency of your
production run. Work packets are scheduled intelligently, based
on stock analysis, components available, priorities and routes to
ensure all your customers' requirements are satisfied and delivery
dates are met.
Your estimates are tightly managed against the
true costs of materials and labour, giving instant visibility of
which jobs are profitable. Now you can manage write-offs, reversals
and discrepancies with control and simplicity.

Bill of materials
See at a glance whether there's sufficient materials to build an
order and then build assemblies from any stock records or price
lines, referring to any text that's been entered to describe the
process. Manage complex builds by nesting one assembly within
another, with automatic stock tracking for full traceability.
Pricing of raw materials is always reflected in your margin,
ensuring that you maximise profit, even in a rapidly changing
market.
Whether building for sales orders or for stock, rule-setting
ensures that you always make the most efficient use of materials.
Minimum build quantities ensure you avoid producing unprofitable
orders. Maximum build quantities ensure you do not exceed your
stock holding. Combine sales orders into a single works order and
merge works orders to increase the efficiency of your production
run. All rules and options can be overridden when required, subject
to full authorisation and control.

awaiting components and allocate from any of your pre-defined
alternatives to ensure orders aren't held up. Instantly create back

order authorisation. Pinpoint stock by multi-dimensional analysis
and allocate serial numbers for traceability. Reversals are handled
with ease so your shop floor and accounts are kept tidy and
accurate.

Every order is assigned a priority to ensure your best customers
are satisfied first and rush job deadlines are met. Factory routing
follows your pre-defined rules, giving you excellent visibility of
progress and early warning of bottlenecks. Estimates are created
automatically and tightly tracked against actual cost of labour and
materials as the job progresses. Run profitability reports at any
time to see where process improvement or pricing negotiations are
required.

The system takes account for over and under production,
prompting you to take advantage of economies of scale while
ensuring your stock records remain accurate. Utilise back-flushing
for any or all of the goods used within your manufacturing process
and for a kanban supply system if required. Damaged materials and
unfinished goods can be written off. Certificates of conformity can
be configured and produced on demand and tailored to reflect your
own quality standards and those of your customers.
