Manufacturing in Platinum ERP: from raw material to the shelf, at real cost

Bakeries, sweets makers, roasteries, poultry and food producers buy raw materials, turn them into products and sell them the same day. Platinum ERP links the three: each product has its recipe, each production run consumes the raw materials from stock and adds the finished goods, and the real cost of every kilo or piece is known before it is priced.

Platinum ERP production and manufacturing

What the manufacturing module covers

  • Recipes and bills of materials

    Each product is defined with its ingredients and quantities, for example flour, sugar and butter for a tray of sweets, or green coffee and spices for a roast.

  • Production orders

    Daily or weekly production orders per product and branch, planned from sales and from what is already on the shelf.

  • Raw material consumption

    Finishing a production run deducts the raw materials from stock automatically according to the recipe.

  • Finished goods

    The produced quantity enters stock ready for sale at the registers, the scales and the e-store.

  • Waste and yield

    Roasting loss, trimming and spoilage are recorded, so the yield of each product is measured, not estimated.

  • Production cost

    The cost of each product is built from its materials, so prices and margins are set on real numbers.

One production day

  1. Plan

    The production order is prepared from yesterday's sales and today's stock.

  2. Produce

    The kitchen or the roaster works from the recipe on the order.

  3. Consume

    Raw materials are deducted from stock when the run is closed.

  4. Stock

    Finished goods enter the shop or the branch warehouse.

  5. Measure

    Cost, yield and waste are compared with the recipe.

  • Inventory: raw materials and finished goods live in the same stock. See Inventory.
  • Purchasing: raw materials are ordered against production needs. See Purchasing.
  • Sales and scales: products sold by weight are priced by Mettler Toledo scales and sold at the register.
  • Accounting: production cost and stock value are posted automatically. See Accounting.

Questions about Platinum manufacturing

Is the manufacturing module only for factories?

No. It is designed for shops that produce what they sell: bakeries, sweets shops, roasteries, butchers, poultry and ready-food kitchens.

Can a product have more than one recipe?

Recipes can be adjusted per product and branch. Our team sets them up with you during implementation.

Does it show the real cost of each product?

Yes. The cost is calculated from the raw materials consumed by the recipe, so margins are based on actual figures.
