For manufacturers
Know what each product really costs to make
Work orders build items from their bill of materials, take raw materials out of stock and add labour and overhead, so the finished goods carry their real unit cost.
- Work in progress in the books
- Scrap recorded, not hidden
From raw material to finished goods
Stock and purchasing
Raw materials bought before they run out
Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are kept in their own warehouses. Purchase requests, approvals and goods receipts keep production supplied, and every movement posts to the books.
- Lots and valuation for materials
- Approvals on large purchases
- Equipment depreciated as fixed assets
Questions and answers
Does it handle work in progress?
Yes. Materials issued to a work order sit in work in progress until the finished goods are received into stock.
Can we include labour and overhead in the cost?
Yes. Labour and overhead per unit are added to the materials, so the unit cost reflects everything that went into it.
We are a small workshop. Is it too much for us?
No. Start with sales, stock and simple bills of materials, and switch on more only when you need it.
