Madeto order

A sales order becomes a work order; material is issued, made, checked and costed.

5 steps

Step by step

  1. Step 1

    A work order from the sale

    A sales order for something you make becomes a work order that tells the floor what to make, from which material and by when.

    Work order · Sales → Stock → Manufacturing

  2. Step 2

    Material issued to the floor

    Stock issues the material the recipe calls for, with wastage built in, and the floor starts making.

    Material · Stock → Manufacturing

  3. Step 3

    Checked on the line

    Quality checks the work in production against your own tolerances, and the reading is recorded.

    Inspection · Quality → Manufacturing

  4. Step 4

    Made, and into stock

    The finished product goes into stock, and the movement is recorded as it happens.

    Product · Manufacturing → Stock

  5. Step 5

    The real cost, in the books

    You get the real cost of what you made, material, labour and overhead, and it posts to the books as it is saved.

    Cost · Stock → Accounting

  • Work sent out and back

    The job worker gets the order, material goes by train, and every gram comes back counted.

  • Trace a bad batch

    One complaint, and the batch is traced back to its supplier and forward to every buyer.

  • A machine breaks down

    The breakdown is logged, spares come from stock, and the history sits on the machine.
