FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions β€” ERPNext Manufacturing

What is Bill of Materials (BOM) in ERPNext Manufacturing? +
A Bill of Materials in ERPNext is a complete list of raw materials, sub-assemblies, components, and quantities required to manufacture one unit of a finished product. ERPNext supports multi-level BOMs for complex assemblies, BOM versioning, and automatic cost rollup from raw material prices to finished goods cost.
Can ERPNext handle subcontracting / job work? +
Yes. ERPNext has a dedicated subcontracting module. You can send raw materials to a job worker with a material challan, track what's been sent and received, handle job work GST compliance (ITC-04), and auto-reconcile subcontractor bills with your production orders. This is particularly relevant for Indian manufacturers under GST.
How does ERPNext Manufacturing link with Inventory and Accounting? +
ERPNext Manufacturing is fully integrated. When a work order is completed, raw material consumption posts to inventory and Cost of Goods Sold automatically. Finished goods are added to stock at the right valuation. All accounting entries β€” material consumption, WIP, finished goods β€” are auto-generated. No manual journal entries needed.
Does ERPNext support make-to-order and make-to-stock production? +
Yes. ERPNext Manufacturing supports both make-to-order (MTO) and make-to-stock (MTS) production strategies. In MTO mode, production is triggered directly from a specific sales order. In MTS mode, you plan production based on forecasts, reorder levels, and safety stock targets.
Can I track machine and operator efficiency in ERPNext? +
Yes. ERPNext has a Workstation and Operation module where you define machines, their capacity, and cost per hour. Job Cards track actual time spent per operation, allowing you to compare planned vs actual time and calculate both labour and machine efficiency. This data feeds into production cost analysis and variance reports.
Is quality control integrated in ERPNext Manufacturing? +
Yes. ERPNext has a Quality Management module that integrates with Manufacturing. You can define quality inspection templates per item or operation, trigger inspections automatically at goods receipt or after production completion, record test results against parameters, and block non-conforming material from being used in further production or shipped to customers.
