Plan work orders from sales demand, check and reserve materials, run batch cards on the shop floor and track every process entry — from raw material to finished goods.
Work orders live in registers and Excel, so nobody can say what is running, what is queued and what is late.
Batches start without confirming material availability, then stall halfway while stores hunt for stock.
When a customer asks about their order, tracing which batch it is in — and at which process — takes phone calls, not seconds.
FlexgrewERP turns sales demand into planned work orders (PLWO), checks material availability against the BOM, reserves what is needed and raises purchase requisitions for shortfalls. Production orders drive batch cards on the floor, where each process entry records quantities as work progresses — with QC built into the flow and full linkage back to the originating sales order.
Capabilities
Create work orders from sales orders with the required materials computed from the product's BOM.
Verify material for a work order in one click and see exactly what is short before committing the floor.
Reserve materials to a work order so other jobs cannot consume them, and unreserve if plans change.
Create purchase requisitions directly from a work order when materials are short — no separate follow-up.
Release, complete or cancel production orders with statuses the whole team can see.
Run production in batches with printable batch cards, remaining-quantity tracking and a dispatch summary.
Record output at every process step against the batch, building live work-in-progress visibility.
Production QC checkpoints catch defects during manufacturing, with rejection reasons captured for analysis.

Business outcomes
Material checks and reservations mean batches start only when they can finish.
Process entries show exactly where every batch stands, without walking the floor.
Follow any sales order to its work order, batch and QC results in seconds.
Shortfalls become purchase requisitions automatically, before they become crises.
FAQ
Yes. Planned work orders are generated against sales demand, and required materials are derived from the product's bill of materials, keeping planning connected to actual orders.
The material check shows the shortfall, and you can create a purchase requisition directly from the work order. Available material can be reserved so it stays committed to that job.
Batch cards carry the batch through production, and process entries record quantities at each step. Remaining quantity per batch is always visible, and batch cards can be printed for the floor.
Yes. Production QC inspects output during and after manufacturing, and rejections are recorded with reasons so recurring issues can be analysed and fixed.
