Manufacturing

Turn raw materials into finished stock, valued automatically

Define a bill of materials per finished product, route it through named work centers, run it as a work order with step-by-step work-in-progress tracking, and record production runs that consume raw materials and add finished goods at a rolled-up cost with labour.

What it solves

If you make what you sell, the hard part is knowing what a finished unit actually costs and keeping raw-material and finished-goods stock in step. Finocket lets you define a bill of materials once, then record a production run: it draws down the components and adds the finished goods to stock automatically, at a rolled-up standard cost, so your make step keeps your inventory and its value honest.

How we're different

Manufacturing rides on the same self-valuing stock ledger as everything else. A production run is a matched movement (components Consumed, finished goods Manufactured) you can see line by line, so the finished-goods value that lands on your balance sheet is derived from real component costs, not typed in by hand.

What it does

Inside Manufacturing

01

Bill of materials with rolled-up cost

Define a bill of materials for each finished product with a rolled-up standard cost, so you always know what a finished unit is built from and what it costs.

02

Production runs that move stock

Record a production run and Finocket consumes the raw materials and adds the finished goods to stock automatically, with no manual stock adjustments on either side.

03

Every movement visible

Each run shows as matched Manufactured / Consumed movements in the stock ledger, so the make step is fully auditable, not a black box.

04

Work centers & routing

Route a bill of materials through named work centers with step-level consume and produce, and roll each step's labour (minutes × the centre's hourly rate) into the finished-goods value. Legacy BoMs with no routing run exactly as before.

05

Work orders with a work-in-progress ledger

Run a routed bill of materials as a work order (draft, in progress, complete or cancel) and tick off each step as the floor finishes it. Every completed step accrues its material and labour into an append-only work-in-progress ledger, so an open order carries a real Work-in-Progress figure on your balance sheet and releases to exactly zero the moment you complete or cancel it.

Work-centre capacity, honestly scoped

Give each work centre a minutes-per-day capacity and read the coming week's load per centre from your open work orders, with over-capacity days flagged and the earliest day that fits suggested. It's a planning aid, not a finite-capacity scheduler. Multi-level MRP netting (demand and on-hand stock in, net make-or-buy planned orders out) runs over the REST API and MCP rather than as an in-app planning screen; there is no master production schedule and no shop-floor terminal.

Questions

How does a production run work?

Define a bill of materials for the finished product, then record a run. Finocket consumes the listed raw materials and adds the finished goods to stock automatically, each as a matched Manufactured / Consumed movement.

How is the finished product costed?

From a rolled-up standard cost built off its bill of materials, so the finished-goods value on your balance sheet is derived from real component costs rather than typed in.

Does it have work centers and routing?

Yes. Route a bill of materials through named work centers with step-level consume and produce, and each step's labour (minutes × its hourly rate) rolls into the finished-goods value. Legacy BoMs with no routing run exactly as before.

Can I run work orders and see work-in-progress?

Yes. A routed bill of materials can run as a work order (draft, in progress, complete or cancel) and you tick off each step as it's finished. Each completed step accrues its material and labour into an append-only work-in-progress ledger, so an open order shows a real Work-in-Progress figure on your balance sheet and releases to exactly zero when the order completes or is cancelled. Completing the order records the production run and moves the stock.

Is there capacity planning?

There's a planning aid, not a scheduler. Give each work centre a capacity in minutes per day and Finocket charts the coming week's load per centre from your open work orders, flags the days over capacity and suggests the earliest day a job would fit. Multi-level MRP netting is available too: post a demand list to the REST API or ask over MCP and you get net make-or-buy planned orders across the whole BoM tree. It has no in-app planning screen yet, and there is no master production schedule and no shop-floor terminal.

Your stock and your cost of goods stay right after every batch, without a separate production register.
