The challenge
Planners work from last week's stock figures, buyers order what they guess is short, and the floor finds out about a missing part when the job stops.
Business process
From demand to finished goods, planned against real stock
PALBONSphere plans production against real demand and real stock, raises the material that is missing and follows every work order across the floor. What was consumed and booked becomes the cost of each finished order.

FAQ
Questions about this solution
Where does the plan get its demand?
From the sales orders you select, checked against the stock already held, so the plan asks only for what is missing.
Can part of the work be done by a subcontractor?
Yes. Subcontracting is part of manufacturing in PALBONSphere, and the material sent out and consumed stays on record.
Do we have to switch on manufacturing at once?
No. Many teams begin with accounting and selling, then add inventory and manufacturing when they are ready.
