We currently are using the Distribution Management Software. At the time we started that software, we weren't doing much “Production”. We are now doing a lot more but not enough to validate moving to the Manufacturing Software.

Any suggestions on a light production module that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to run? We don't need a lot of the “Bells & Whistles” that a lot of add-ons offer. I understand the cost for installation and training. But after that, the cost for usage of the module to be reasonable. 

Requirements:

-JOB TRAVELERS/PRODUCTION TRAVELERS (To also be able to track status)

-BILLS OF MATERIAL

-BOM COSTING

 

Optional Items:

-FORECASTING/REPLENSIHMENT WITHIN THE BOM’S

-AUTOMATIC “KIT ASSEMBLY” WHEN JOB TRAVELER IS COMPLETED

If you speak with your VAR, they may be able to strike you a deal and include certain extra screens that you need from Acumatica into your license.

 

These are the screens included in the advanced manufacturing edition that we use:

We have also got the Inventory Requirements planning which forecasts off of orders placed & production orders created:

 

If you or your IT team are able to, you can download a local instance of Acumatica and switch features on to trial them.

 

Hope this helps
