ERPNext for Manufacturing
End-to-end ERPNext for manufacturers — from raw material to finished goods
Manufacturing Industry Challenges
Production Tracking Gaps
No real-time visibility into work orders, job card status, or machine utilisation. Managers rely on daily WhatsApp updates to know what's happening on the floor.
Inventory Wastage & Shrinkage
Excess raw material procurement, stock spoilage, and untracked inter-department transfers leading to inflated inventory costs and year-end audit discrepancies.
Inconsistent Quality Control
Manual quality checklists on paper, no rejection tracking, and no link between quality failures and supplier scorecards or production batches.
Supply Chain Blind Spots
Disconnected procurement, production, and dispatch means stockouts halt production while other items sit in overstock. Lead times are guesses, not calculations.
