Bills of materials
Define what goes into every product — raw materials, parts and their quantities — and DesiERP knows what a production run needs before it starts.
- Components and quantities
- Multi-level products
- Scrap % per component
- Costed from each item's cost price
Plans, orders and job cards
Plan production for the week or month, release production orders to the floor, and track each job card at its work centre — so you know what is being made, where, and how far it has got.

Material issued, output added
Issue raw material from stock against the production order, record the finished goods produced, and stock updates on both sides in one step.

- Finished goods into stock
- Rejections and scrap reasons
- Pending issues tracked
Quality and wastage
Record quality checks on what comes off the line, and wastage against every order — and see wastage reports by product and period.

- Accept or reject, with reasons

Know what each product cost
Cost every production run from the material, labour and overheads that went into it, and see each product's margin on its BOM cost.

Questions about Manufacturing
Is it suitable for a small factory?
Yes. Start with bills of materials and production orders; add plans, job cards and quality checks when you need them.
Does production update stock?
Yes. Material issued is taken out of stock and finished goods are added, and the order records the warehouse you choose.
Can I track wastage?
Yes, against every production order, with wastage reports by product and period.
Can I see the cost of each product?
Yes. Costs are worked out from the material used plus labour and overheads, and the BOM cost sheet shows the margin on selling price.
Can I run job work?
Use production orders and material issues to track material you process; ask us to show you a set-up for your process.
