Why It Matters
What Happens Without It
Production delays rarely start on the floor. They start with a BOM, a material shortage, or a plan nobody updated.
BOMs are outdated or inconsistent
Bills of materials tracked in spreadsheets drift out of date, leading to costly production errors.
Material shortages stall production
Without linking BOMs to stock, a missing component halts a work order with no warning.
Work order status is a mystery
Managers can't tell what stage a job is at without walking the floor and asking.
Production costs are hard to pin down
Without connected data, actual production cost versus planned cost stays a guess.
What's Included
Manufacturing, Built In
ERPNext's Manufacturing module connects planning, materials and the shop floor into one system.
Bills of materials (BOM)
Maintain accurate, multi-level BOMs that stay in sync with what's actually being built.
Work order & job card management
Track every work order from planning to completion, stage by stage.
Production planning
Plan material and capacity requirements against demand, before you commit to a build.
Capacity planning
See workstation and machine capacity at a glance, and plan production around real constraints.
Production cost tracking
Compare planned versus actual cost for every work order, down to labour and materials.
