Manufacturing ERP Software for Production and Inventory

The RetailMan ERP System Manufacturing module connects recipes, production orders and inventory. It suits businesses that turn stocked ingredients or components into finished products and need to understand the materials and costs involved.

Recipes and material requirements

Define a bill of materials as a recipe with ingredient quantities and waste percentages. Recipe records give production staff a repeatable starting point for preparing a finished product.

Production connected to stock

Production orders consume ingredients and produce finished goods. Optional status and quality-control settings help teams follow production progress and inspect output within the configured workflow.

Costs and production review

Review ingredient costs and, when enabled, labour and overhead costs. Manufacturing and recipe reports help explain production volumes, wastage and ingredient consumption rather than leaving those figures in disconnected records.

How it works

  1. Create the finished product and its ingredient products, then define the recipe.
  2. Create a production order and record the required quantities and enabled cost details.
  3. Complete the configured production workflow and review finished stock and manufacturing reports.

Example use case

A business preparing packaged products can purchase ingredients, record a production batch and then sell the resulting finished goods. Purchasing and inventory pages explain the stock workflows that surround production.
