Manufacturing Overview

The GoldFinch Manufacturing app is designed to streamline the setup and management of manufactured items, enabling businesses to handle production processes efficiently. With features that support the creation of Work Orders, management of components and routing services, and the processing of Output and Consumption, this app simplifies manufacturing workflows and enhances production tracking.

Key Features

• Setup of Manufactured Items:

  • Define manufactured items with their associated components and routing services.

  • Components can include raw materials, sub-assemblies, or any items required for the manufacturing process.

  • Routing services define the steps involved in producing the item, including work centers and labor required.

• Work Orders:

  • Create and manage Work Orders to track the production process.

  • Work Orders detail the components and routing steps needed to manufacture the item and help schedule and monitor the production workflow.

• Outside Service Purchase Orders (POs):

  • Manage outside service purchase orders for subcontracted services.

  • This feature helps track services performed by external vendors as part of the production process, such as machining, painting, or assembly work.

• Processing Output:

  • Track the output of finished goods from the manufacturing process.

  • Output entries reflect the completion of production, adding the finished goods to inventory and updating stock levels.

• Processing Consumption:

  • Record the consumption of components and materials used during production.

  • Consumption entries reduce inventory levels for components as they are used in the manufacturing process, ensuring accurate stock records for raw materials.

Benefits

• Efficient Production Management:
  The app allows businesses to plan and track every aspect of production, from raw material consumption to the completion of finished goods, providing real-time visibility into the manufacturing process.

• Accurate Inventory Tracking:
  By tracking consumption and output, the app ensures that inventory levels for both raw materials and finished goods are always up-to-date.

• Seamless Integration with Other GoldFinch Modules:
  The Manufacturing app integrates with other GoldFinch modules, such as Purchasing, Sales, and Warehouse Management, providing a unified view of operations.

• Streamlined Subcontracting:
  The management of outside service POs allows businesses to easily track and manage outsourced services as part of their overall production workflow.

The GoldFinch Manufacturing app is an essential tool for businesses that want to streamline their production processes, improve inventory accuracy, and efficiently manage work orders and subcontracted services.
