MRP & Production Planning
Use the inbuilt Material Requirements Planning (MRP) and Production Planning (PP) directly from Manufacturing Orders.
Manufacturing Management
Plan production. Control materials. Track costs.
FACT ERP.NG connects manufacturing, inventory, purchasing and financials in one system — helping manufacturers plan materials, manage production, monitor Work-in-Progress and understand the cost of what they produce.
Manufacturing Built Into Your ERP
Production should not sit outside your financial system.
FACT ERP.NG supports discrete manufacturing and connects production activity with inventory and financials.
That means material usage, Work-in-Progress, finished goods and manufacturing costs remain part of the same ERP environment.

- Materials
- Manufacturing
Order - Production
- WIP
- Finished
Goods - Financials
Material Requirement Planning
Know what production needs.
FACT ERP.NG includes Material Requirement Planning (MRP) with Bills of Materials, helping manufacturing teams connect production requirements with the materials needed to fulfil them.
Demand→BOM→Material Requirement→Production
The system supports unlimited levels of Bill of Materials (BOM) as well as Master Production Scheduling (MPS) based on Manufacturing Orders.
Multi-Level Bill of Materials
Manage how your products are built.
FACT ERP.NG supports multi-level BOMs for products that move through several stages of production.
- Bill of Materials
- Production Lines
- Processes
- Work Centres
- Routing Definitions
Finished Product
Assembly A
Assembly B
Raw Materials / Components
Production Planning & Routing
Control how work moves through the factory.
This helps manufacturers structure production around the way work actually moves through the factory.
- Manufacturing Orders
- Production Orders
- Job Orders
- Production Routing
- Processes and Work Centres
- Alternate Routings
- Alternate Work Centres
Track Work-in-Progress
Know what's still being made.
Work-in-Progress should not disappear between raw materials and finished goods.
FACT ERP.NG automatically updates WIP across production and inventory, with WIP values flowing through to the Balance Sheet seamlessly,
FACT ERP.NG covers opening and closing WIP, real-time WIP quantities and automatic WIP valuation.
Raw Materials→Production→WIP→Finished Goods
- Production Line
- Division
- Department
- Shop Floor

Understand Manufacturing Costs
Know what it costs to make what you sell.
FACT ERP.NG supports both estimated manufacturing cost and the actual Cost of Manufactured Goods, helping management connect production activity with the financial outcome.
Materials \+ Labour \+ Overheads→Manufacturing Cost→Finished Goods
Manufacturing functionality also includes Manufacturing Overhead Cost Control and tracking for outsourced labour and machines.
Control Materials, Wastage & Scrap
Production efficiency is also about what gets consumed along the way.
This helps keep production activity connected with inventory movements rather than managed through separate manual records.
- Automatic Issue of Raw Materials to Production
- Wastage Controls
- Scrap Controls
- BOM-based Wastage Parameters
- Ad-hoc Wastage Parameters
- Tracking Finished Goods against Manufacturing Orders
Quality & Production Control
These features help manufacturing teams manage more of the production process within the same ERP environment.
- Quality Assurance at Multiple Stages
- Pick Lists
- Drawing Library
- Multiple Shift Definitions
- Outsourced Labour and Machine Tracking
FAQ
