Bills of materials with versions
A bill of materials for each product, with versions that keep changes to the recipe.
Factory management software
Factory accounting software that shows the actual cost of a production order
Moon ERP is factory management software that starts at the bill of materials and the production order and ends at cost analysis in the accounts. Warehouses, purchases, production and accounts are in one system, so planned quantities are compared with what was actually consumed without outside spreadsheets.
Manufacturing software: from bill of materials to production order
The production module defines which materials a product needs and where it is made, then records what actually happened on each production order.
Work centres with hourly cost
Work centres are defined with an hourly cost for each one.
Production orders
A production order for each run, based on the bill of materials.
Planned versus actual
Planned material consumption compared with actual consumption on every order.
Production reports
Reports showing production orders and their costs.
Accounting software for factories: production cost analysis
Cost analysis splits the cost of a production order into materials, labour and overhead, and shows the variances between planned and actual. Material cost comes from inventory by weighted average or FIFO.
In the accounts, cost centres track expense and revenue by department or project, alongside cost allocation, budgets, fixed assets with depreciation and the financial statements.
Raw material and finished goods stock, quality and maintenance
Warehouses are arranged in a tree, so raw materials and finished goods can be kept in separate warehouses, with receipts, issues, transfers between warehouses, stock counts and adjustments, and batch numbers and expiry dates when needed. Purchase orders and supplier invoices are recorded in the same system.
The quality module records quality inspections and the maintenance module records maintenance work orders. The software suits factories that want cost, stock and accounts under control together.
