Manufacturing
(Bill of Material)

From job to finished goods, with every gram of material and every hour of service accounted for.

AccSoft ERP's Manufacturing module links a customer job to its bill of material, controls the raw materials and services issued against it, and posts finished goods to stock with their true cost. Every document carries an approval level, so nothing is issued, returned or completed without sign-off.

Why AccSoft ERP for Manufacturing?

Everything your production team needs is connected, not bolted on.

🔗
Fully Integrated
Raw material issues draw down Inventory, purchase costs flow in from Purchases & Payables, finished goods feed Sales & Debtors, and every posting lands in the General Ledger in Banking & Journal, with no double entry.
📈
True Product Cost
Material, service and variance are captured per job, so you know what each finished good actually cost, not just what it should have cost. Variance reports show the difference clearly.
🔒
Controlled Production
Approval levels on every document mean no material leaves the store and no finished good enters stock unchecked. Every document shows its Approved / Close status at a glance.
🇳🇰
Built for Sri Lanka
VAT, SSCL and local document formats are standard, not add-ons. Create and view customer invoices directly from a job with VAT and SSCL applied per line. See our local tax compliance guide.
📋
Reusable Assemblies
Define standard bills of material once in the Item Assembly master and pull them into any job with Select BOM. One job can carry several BOMs and batches.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the Manufacturing (BOM) module.

Which manufacturing documents require approval?
All of them. Jobs, BOMs, issue notes, issue returns, service consumption, service returns and BOM completion each carry an approval level, and user permissions control who can approve at each stage. Every document shows its Approved / Close status at a glance.
Can one job have more than one BOM?
Yes. A job can carry several BOMs and batches, each with its own finished goods, raw materials and completion status useful for multi-product runs or phased production.
How is finished goods cost calculated?
Actual raw material issued (less returns) plus actual services consumed (less returns) are accumulated on the job. On completion, finished goods are added to stock at that actual cost, and the variance against standard is reported.
Does the system support partial completion?
Yes. A BOM can be completed in parts, and the Partial Finished Good Variance, Cost Variance (Partial) and Finished Good Progress reports track what is done and what remains.
Can we bill the customer from the SO/BOM?
Yes. Create/View Invoice raises the customer invoice directly from the SO/BOM, with VAT and SSCL applied per line no need to re-enter the job details in Sales.
Are standard bills of material reusable?
Yes. Define them once in the Item Assembly master and pull them into any job with Select BOM saving time on repeat orders and ensuring consistent costing.
Does material issue update stock immediately?
Yes. When an issue note is approved, stock at that location and batch is reduced and the cost moves to the job. Issue returns reverse it. All movements are visible in the Inventory module in real time.
