Tracking inventory movements of raw materials and finished goods during production.

Record and track scrap materials for analysis and loss minimization.

Reserve materials for specific manufacturing orders to avoid shortages.

Configure routes to ensure raw materials are moved to work centers and finished products to storage efficiently.

Set up quality checks at specific stages of production to ensure adherence to standards.

Define inspection protocols for raw materials, in-process products and finished goods.

Log and track non-conformance issues, implementing corrective actions when needed.

Notify quality issues or required inspections to the team.

Calculate costs for raw materials, labor, machine time and overhead to evaluate profitability.

Generate reports to analyze the profitability of specific manufacturing runs or products.

Identify patterns in scrap or waste to improve efficiency and reduce losses.

Assess the productivity and efficiency of individual work centers.

Automatically trigger procurement orders for raw materials when stock levels fall below minimum thresholds.

Automatically generate and schedule work orders based on production demand.

Use barcodes for real-time tracking of materials, operations and finished goods.

Connect with IoT devices to monitor machine performance and automate data collection.

When a manufacturing order is completed the following entries are created:

For the consumption of raw materials:

• Debit: Manufacturing WIP
• Credit: Inventory (associated with raw materials)

For labor and overhead:

• Debit: Manufacturing WIP
• Credit: Labor / Overhead

For the production of the finished goods:

• Debit: Inventory (associated with the finished product
• Credit: Manufacturing WIP

As multiple manufacturing orders get completed, the "Manufacturing WIP" account can easily become crowded, and controlling the account can become unmanageable.

In this context it is important that the Manufacturing WIP account debits and credits can be connected with the individual manufacturing order that originated it, and that the debits and credits associated with the same manufacturing order can be reconciled together.
