Manufacturing Software for MYOB & QuickBooks
Ostendo is ideally suited for small to medium sized manufacturers who are currently being restricted by the manufacturing functionality in either MYOB or QuickBooks. Neither MYOB nor QuickBooks is capable of tracking Work in Progress (WIP) which is one of the primary reasons neither product is adequate by itself to properly manage a manufacturing based organisation.
Ostendo has many advanced features typically only found in enterprise level manufacturing systems including such things as cost rollups, by-products, MRP and capacity planning. In addition to these features, Ostendo is highly customisable and new functionality can be added with relative ease due to Ostendo being based on a powerful SQL relational database.
Some of Ostendo's main features relevant to manufacturers include the following:
- Perform cost roll-ups through multi level BOMs
- Option to automate purchase order generation for material requirements
- Automate generation of work orders to meet inventory / order requirements
- Unlimited level bills of material (BOMs)
- Capacity planning by machine or department
- Full batch / serial traceability throughout the manufacturing process
- Phantom products are supported
- Ability to compare planned usage vs. actuals on a job by job basis
- Assign assets and employees to jobs
- Timesheet functionality with associated reporting
- In-depth reporting capabilities across all areas of the system
- Create rules-based custom products
- Attach plans / documents to work orders
If MYOB or QuickBooks isn't currently meeting your manufacturing software requirements then please contact us for more information on how Ostendo could be of benefit your organisation.
