Production & Supply suite

Manufacturing ERP Software Build what customers ordered, with the material already in the rack.

Sales orders become demand, MRP turns it into make and buy proposals, and manufacturing orders run on the shop floor against stock that purchasing has already received. Every step reads the same parts, BOMs and stock.

Why this suite

Why do plants still plan production in spreadsheets?

Because sales, purchasing, stores and production each keep their own records, and none of them agree. The order book sits in one file, stock in another, and the schedule on a whiteboard. Manufacturing ERP software puts them on one set of data, so a new order, a late PO or a short receipt shows up in the plan straight away.

Each product in the suite covers one step from order to shipment. Together they pass the same order lines, parts and stock from one team to the next, with no re-keying in between.

How it connects

How order, plan, purchase and production stay in step

Order lines are the demand

Each sales order line carries a part, quantity, plant and delivery date. MRP plans from those lines and your forecasts, and manufacturing orders are created against them.

MRP proposes, people convert

A planning run proposes what to make, buy or subcontract. Planners convert proposals into draft manufacturing orders and draft purchase requirements, which follow the normal approval steps.

Receipts post real stock

A GRN against a purchase order puts stock into the right bin, or into Quality stock when the part needs incoming inspection. Scheduling a manufacturing order reserves the components it needs.

The shop floor moves stock

Starting a manufacturing order issues its reserved components, finishing it receives the finished part, and shipping a delivery posts the goods issue against the customer order.

FAQ

Manufacturing ERP questions

Still unsure? Ask our team.

What is manufacturing ERP?

Manufacturing ERP is software that runs the operational side of a factory on one database: sales orders, material planning, purchasing, inventory and production. In YourBrand, that is the Production and Supply suite, and it shares parts, BOMs and documents with the quality and engineering products.

What is the difference between MRP and ERP?

MRP is the planning calculation that works out what to make and buy, and when. ERP is the wider system around it that also takes orders, buys material, holds stock and runs production. YourBrand has MRP as its own product inside this suite.

What is the difference between MES and ERP?

ERP decides what the business needs to make and buy. MES runs the making: it schedules jobs onto workstations and records output, rejects and downtime at the machine. In YourBrand, the Manufacturing Execution System works on the same orders and stock as the rest of the suite.

Does it include financial accounting?

No. You can record sales and purchase invoices and the payments against them, but there is no general ledger. Keep your accounting package for the books.

Can we start with one product, such as inventory or purchasing?

Yes. Each product in the suite works on its own, and it connects to the data you already have when you add the next one. YourBrand runs in the cloud or on-premise.
