Bills of materials
Multi-level bills with components, packaging, labour and overheads, so every product has a costed recipe.
Know what to make, what to buy and when.
Plan runs around the materials and people you have, with bills of materials tied to live stock. Yield, scrap and labour show on the floor as they happen, not in next month's report.
Covers Production & MRP, Bills of materials and Job scheduling
A short pick shows before the run starts, not halfway through.
Schedule around what you have
Jobs are planned against live stock, open purchase orders and the people on shift. A run that can't be made yet says so before anyone sets up the line.
Bills of materials on live stock
Multi-level BOMs read current stock and batches, so every shortage, substitution and allocation is visible at planning time rather than at the weigh-out.
Actual against planned, live
Materials, yield, scrap and labour are recorded as the run goes, against the standard. Variance per batch is visible on the floor, not reconstructed at month end.
Batch and serial trace, both ways
Every run records which supplier batches went in and which customer batches came out. A recall or an audit question is answered in minutes, from one screen.
Bill of materials
From recipe to finished goods, every step recorded.
Bills of materials drive the whole run, from picking components in the warehouse to the true cost of what came off the line.
Batch and serial traceability
Every batch and serial number used is linked to what it made, so you can trace forwards or backwards in seconds.
Production picking
Components are picked through the warehouse by handheld scanner, by bin and batch, and issued straight to the order.
Actual versus budget
Compare actual materials, labour and yield with the budget on every order, and see where the margin went.
MRP
Plan production and stock from real demand.
MRP takes your sales orders and forecasts, works through every bill of materials and nets off what you hold, so you know what to make, what to buy and when.
-
1
Demand in
Open sales orders, forecasts and minimum stock levels set what is needed and by when.
-
2
Bills of materials exploded
Every level is worked through, so sub-assemblies, components and packaging are planned alongside finished goods.
-
3
Stock netted off
What you hold, what is on order and what is already in production are taken off, so you only plan the shortfall.

Make and buy suggestions
Review suggested production and purchase orders, allowing for lead times, then release them in one step.
Scheduling
Schedule every run around what you actually have.
Production orders are scheduled against your lines, people and materials, so the plan on the board is one the floor can deliver.
- See every line and resource across the week in one view
- Runs short of materials are flagged before they are started
- Move a run and the dates on linked sales orders update with it

Common questions about production in Enterpryze
Does Enterpryze handle multi-level bills of materials?
Yes. BOMs can nest sub-assemblies to any depth, with routings, by-products and scrap allowances. Each level reads live stock, so shortages at any depth show at planning time.
Can I see actual cost against planned while a run is in progress?
Yes. Materials, labour and overhead are recorded against the job as the run goes, and the variance against standard updates live. You do not wait for the month-end costing report.
Does it support batch and serial tracking through production?
Yes. Supplier batches consumed and finished-goods batches produced are both recorded on the job, so you can trace in either direction for recalls, audits or customer queries.
Does production run in the same system as stock and sales?
Yes. Production, inventory, purchasing, sales and the ledger are one system with one set of numbers. A finished run is in stock and available to sell the moment it is booked in.
