🏭 Manufacturing Module

Production planning and shop floor control in one system

Overview

What Does the Manufacturing Module Do?

ERPNext Manufacturing connects your sales demand to your production floor. Multi-level BOMs, automated work order creation, job card tracking, and subcontracting management give production managers complete control — and real-time visibility — over every aspect of the manufacturing process.

🏭 Key Features

Everything the Manufacturing module can do for your business

Job Card & Time Tracking

Operators log time and material consumption on job cards — feeding actual vs standard cost analysis.

Production Scheduling

Subcontracting

Manage job work — send raw materials to sub-contractors, receive finished goods, and track outsourced operations.

OEE & Downtime Tracking

Track Overall Equipment Effectiveness, machine downtime reasons, and maintenance alerts from the shop floor.

Production Cost Analysis

Actual vs standard cost variance reports at the work order level — identify where costs overrun and why.

Scrap & Byproduct Accounting
