Accounting Package for manufacturer

[Neville Bailey]

A problem we are experiencing is that Pastel will only pull items from stock, to create a BOM once you invoice. We need to transfer components from stock to WIP before invoicing, so that we are on top of what we have in stock as components, WIP and finished product, before invoicing. Is there a program that can do this for us, or should we write our own stock management program to arrive at a final product before invoicing?

There is another add-on module for Pastel called Multi-Warehousing, which will address your concern.

You can then create multiple warehouses/stores, e.g. raw materials, WIP, finished goods, consignment stock, etc, and then you will have the facility to process inter-store transfers. For example, as components are issued from raw material stores into production, you can process an inter-store transfer of those components from the RM store to the WIP store. When you receive finished items into your finished goods store, you can then process a BOM which will reduce the requisite quantity of components in the WIP store and increase the quantity of finished goods in the FG store. You can then process an invoice from the FG store.

I can supply you with a quote if you would be so kind as to fill in your details on the online form on my website (see link in signature below). Please let me know how many user licences you will require, i.e. on how many networked computers you need to run Pastel.

Wouldn't you say that if you use excel you can make a cheaper easier package? i mean, seriously... why make files in a format that doesn't translate with others using different packages?
