Does ERPTotal support process as well as discrete manufacturing?

Yes. Discrete assembly uses work orders and routings, while process manufacturing uses batch production with yield and by-product handling.

Can we trace a finished product back to its raw material batches?

Batch and serial genealogy is maintained through every production stage, so a recall or quality query traces both forward and backward.

Is subcontracted or job-work production supported?

Material issued to subcontractors is tracked as your stock at their location, with job-work charges costed into the finished item.

Plan, produce and cost every work order

Manufacturing ERP

ERPTotal takes a sales order through material planning, work orders and shop-floor execution to finished goods — with actual production cost compared against standard on every batch.

What changes for you

Standard vs actual: cost on every batch
Full: batch traceability
Planned: material availability

The problem

What usually goes wrong in manufacturing operations

Material shortages are discovered after production starts
Actual production cost is never compared with the standard cost
Scrap and rework are absorbed silently into overheads
Traceability from finished goods back to raw batches is manual

The flow

How manufacturing work runs in ERPTotal

Each stage hands the next one its data. Nothing is re-keyed, and the cost picture updates as the work moves.

1
Demand & planning
Convert sales orders and forecasts into a production plan with capacity checked.
2
Material requirement
Explode the BOM, net off available stock, and raise purchase requests for shortages.
3
Work order release
Issue work orders to the shop floor with routing, machines and target output.
4
Production execution
Record material issue, machine hours, labour and output stage by stage.
5
Quality control
Inspect at goods receipt, in process and before dispatch, with rejection and rework logged.
6
Costing & closure
Close the work order with actual versus standard cost and variance analysis.
