InterAcct Software for Manufacturing 
 | The InterAcct Manufacturing system combines a multi level Bill of Materials with a job costing Production system – all integrated with the normal accounting functions. | | There are links to automatically create purchase orders, works orders, to reserve stock, and then to automatically issue materials to a production job. | | | The Bill of Materials system will provide a costing on finished goods (and sub assemblies). It allows you to combine Materials, Labour, Machine Time, Sub Contractors, Overhead Recovery, and Sundry costs. | | There is the option to input daily production complete quantities to automatically issue and calculate the related Cost Items used. | | | When considering the production of an item (to cover stock and/or sales order requirements), the system provides both gross and net material requirement plans, plus machine capacity. | | The focus is on speed of data input, accuracy, and simplicity. |
Manufacturing Software Features: | | The first step in creating your Bill of Materials, is to add the Materials, Sub Assemblies, and Finished Goods as Stock items. | | Existing material stock can be reserved at any time, and pro-forma purchase orders created automatically for what is needed. | | For each "Make" item there is a Bill of Material (BOM) attached. | | Availability checks can be performed at any time to check whether all materials are available to start production. | | The Bill of Materials is typically a combination of Materials, Direct Factory Labour, Machine time, Sub Contractor charges, and Sundry costs (including indirect overhead recovery). | | Materials can be issued to the job from stock automatically. | | Materials can also be "Make" items. Calculations of quantities required can be Each, Linear, Square, or Cubic - with wastage factors added. | | As an option, you can input the actual production quantities each day, and InterAcct will calculate the labour time and materials used automatically. | | The current stock balance of materials is shown as an indication of what can be made. | | Variance analysis is shown between a job's budget and the actual cost items so that you may adjust the BOM accordingly. | | Graphic images can be attached to the BOM along with work instructions. | | As the finished stock item is completed production, it is transferred into stock. If related to a Sales Order, then this is updated to indicate it is now ready for despatch. | | To save time, a BOM can be used to copy and create another BOM - and them you simply modify the copy to suit. | | Another version of the BOM system has been created for Paint & Chemical manufacture - with both volume and weight formulations in batch quantities with differing packaging sizes. | | BOM can be automatically re-costed at any time - based on the latest stock cost information. | | There are numerous standard reports within InterAcct, and these can be personalised to suit. | | Production jobs for a manufactured stock item can be for stock, and/or for one or more sales backorders. | | The database of files, fields, and menus can also be personalised to suit individual requirements. | | The BOM is copied across to automatically create the production job's estimate. | | Material requirements can be shown gross, and "Net" of available stock. |
