ERPNext for Manufacturing — reliable MRP, BOMs & shop-floor controls
We implement ERPNext for tiles, ceramics, chemicals and discrete manufacturing — transforming planning, execution and quality with auditable workflows and lower operational friction.
Single-line pilot, then phased plant rollout. Clear acceptance criteria for production, QC & costing.
What we implement — practical manufacturing features
We prioritise high-impact features that reduce waste, speed production and make accounting accurate and auditable with ERPNext.
BOM Management
Multi-level BOMs, version control and approval flows so production always uses the correct recipe.
MRP & Planning
Demand-driven MRP runs, exception reporting and automation of PRs to remove manual planning.
Shop-floor Capture
Operator logs, workstations and WIP tracking — data that feeds costing and performance metrics.
Quality & Traceability
QC gates, inspection templates and batch traceability for audit-ready records.
Hardware & Labeling
Barcode scanners, label printers and integration with weighing hardware for seamless material handling.
Costing & Reports
Accurate product costing, scrap handling and variance reporting integrated with accounting ledgers.
Pilot → Rollout: a predictable path
We break projects into short phases to de-risk implementations and deliver measurable outcomes early.
Phase 1 — Discover (1–2 weeks)
Workshops, KPI definition, BOM audit and hardware checklist. Clear acceptance criteria for pilot success.
Phase 2 — Configure & Integrate (2–4 weeks)
BOM/versioning, MRP scheduling, QC forms, barcode flows and any MES/PLC integrations for the pilot line.
Phase 3 — Validate, Train & Go-live (2–4 weeks)
Test runs, operator training, KPI measurement and hypercare. Then roll out across lines in controlled waves.
Case Study — Nirali Ceramic
We implemented production planning, BOM governance and inventory controls that improved production reliability and reduced stock variance for a tiles & ceramics manufacturer.
Manufacturing FAQs
Short answers to common manufacturing ERPNext questions.
- Can ERPNext handle multi-level BOMs and variants?
- Yes — ERPNext supports multi-level BOMs, alternative BOMs and BOM versioning. We implement governance so only approved BOMs are used in production.
- Do you support MRP automation and PR generation?
- Yes — we configure scheduled MRP runs, exceptions and automated purchase requisitions that integrate with your procurement flows.
- Can you integrate shop-floor hardware (barcode, PLC, weighbridge)?
- Yes — we integrate barcode scanners, label printers, weighbridge and optional PLC/IoT sensors to capture production data into ERPNext.
