Manufacturing Dashboard

Do you have products that can be built up or broken down in a manufacturing process? Maybe you have 100g bags and 1000g bags on the shelf. To deconstruct (1) 1000g bag and transform it into (10) 100g bags simply use the manufacturing module.

The same goes for producing items. If you use ingredients or parts to manufacture a larger product and want to keep track of all inventory levels use the manufacturing module.

Notes:

• Products must be listed with a profile in the inventory module prior to being built.
• Products must be received into inventory and have an on hand prior to being manufactured.

Steps:

Be sure that the Manufacturing Dashboard is turned on inside of the General System Settings.

Locate the Manufacturing dashboard from the Home Module.
