Manufacturing & Kitting

Manufacture products and create assemblies to distribute or sell.

The Manufacturing Module within EBMS is primarily used when items are manufactured or assembled rather than purchased in the same form they are sold. This is useful when creating inventory products from raw materials or assembling inventory kits before the sale of the item.

Manufacturing Process

The six main features of the manufacturing process within EBMS include creating finished goods, identifying items consumed, scheduling the batch, material requirement planning, and processing the batch.

Made-To-Order

The Made-To-Order (MTO) option gives the user the convenience of combining the two step process of manufacturing and sales into a single step. The sales order is associated to a specific manufacturing batch for MTO items.
