Costing from yarn to finished saree: looms weave grey fabric, dyeing and printing go out as job work and come back as a cost line, and the credit limit warns at invoice entry when an agent or trader in the Surat market is over it.

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 Georgette Printed Saree BOM: raw materials and routing roll up into one cost per unit of printed sarees.
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.
Yarn to grey to saree
Signed in as a staff member, open /inventory. Yarn in kg, grey fabric in metres, sarees in pieces - each stage's stock after the runs that moved it.
Job work that comes back as cost
Signed in as the accountant, open /expenses. The process-house bill for printing, TDS 194C (new Act s.393(1) 6(i)) deducted, itemised against the run.
A Surat mill that knows the cost of a saree from the yarn
Before: Grey fabric and finished sarees costed separately, dyeing job work reconciled at month end, and traders across India on informal credit.
With Finocket: A two-stage BOM (yarn to grey, grey to saree), dyeing booked as job work with TDS, and interstate trader invoices with e-way bills.
