Formulas by weight, reactor batches that yield what they yield, filling into drums and cans from the same batch, and a cost per litre that already carries the reactor's power and the chemist's QC time.

Turn any of these off if you don't need them - see setting Finocket up for your trade for the two decisions worth getting right on day one.
What you'll do day to day
The bill of materials is the costing
Signed in as a staff member, open /manufacturing?tab=boms. Open the Industrial Degreaser BOM: raw materials and routing roll up into one cost per unit of 50 L degreaser drums.
A work order from plan to finished stock
Signed in as a staff member, open /manufacturing?tab=workorders. One draft, one in progress, one completed - start a draft and walk it through its routing steps.
Production consumes raw, yields finished
Signed in as a staff member, open /manufacturing?tab=production. A completed run: raw material out, finished goods in at the rolled-up cost, labour from the work centres included.
Capacity by work centre
Signed in as a staff member, open /manufacturing?tab=capacity. Which work centre is the bottleneck this week, from the open work orders' routing minutes.
Batch number from reactor to invoice
Signed in as a staff member, open /inventory. Finished drums by batch (DC-…) with manufacture and expiry dates; the oldest batch ships first.
Industrial rate contracts
Signed in as the owner, open /deals. The Pharma City rate contract in supply, the OEM degreaser trial and the airport tender by stage.
A Hyderabad chemicals plant costing by the reactor batch
Before: Formulas by weight in a lab notebook, reactor time never costed, and batch numbers lost between the reactor and the drum.
With Finocket: Formula BOMs by weight, reactor and QC on the routing, and each reactor batch keeping its batch number and expiry in stock.
