STOCK CONTROL
Raw Material Stock Control is another logical and easy
to use program, but look deeper and you will find a depth
of control and tracking second to none. It is closely
integrated with Estimating, Purchasing, Costing, Production
and Waste Control and is based upon the requirements
of ISO9002.
- On first-in-first-out principles it will
show current stock balances and values with an audit
trail of all
transactions. There is full trace-ability from an
end product back to its source via whatever machines
it was
produced on. It will also show the history of all
other jobs produced from that same original batch.
 Functions
- Purchases for Stock: the data is automatically
integrated from the Purchasing module.
- Receives Goods Inwards. Issues unique batch numbers and
bar coded labels if required. (The data is automatically
brought in from the Goods-In and Purchasing modules.)
- Permits and records allocations, deductions, adjustments,
quarantines and returns to supplier.
- Supplies opening and closing balances, between any dates,
and any number of reports and statistics via
the Report and Document Generators.
- Price list files may be created to feed costs and descriptions
to the Estimating and Costing systems.
Set up Features
- Each Stock Item may be individually shaped
to reflect its purpose (e.g. Plates, Film, Ink, Sheets
of Paper, Reels of Paper, etc.).
- Multiple units of measurement (e.g. 1000sheets, 1sheet,
1kilo, 1000kilos, 10boxes, etc.)
-
Multiple methods of pricing (e.g. £’s/tonne,
Pence/square metre, £’s/kilo
or per 1000 kilos, etc.).
- Reels may be purchased in one unit of measurement and
issued to the factory in another (e.g.
bought in metres and issued by weight: or, bought by weight and issued
per reel, etc.). Every printer with reel-fed
machinery has his own preferred way of handling this subject.
- Each Item shows four price fields: the purchase price
of the last batch; the individual price
of each batch; the selling price to be used by Estimating; and the
overall true average against which the stock is valued.
- Each Item shows the quantities for Actual, Available,
on Order and in Quarantine.
Operating Features
- Individual batch control and individual
location control.
- Individual reel or pallet tracking.
- Allocations to jobs can be made from within Works Instruction
Writing or direct within Stock
itself.
- Deductions all integrate automatically with the Job Cost
Sheets. Three ways are possible:
direct from within Stock itself; by the Daily Data Input function of the
Costing System; and Directly from Shop Floor
Data
Capture terminals usually by reading bar coded labels on the pallets
or reels.
- Stock Returns, part reels or part pallets, automatically
reduce the posted values on
the Cost Sheets.
- All allocations and orders show reducing totals for part
deductions and part receipts.
The final outstanding balances are self-correcting.
- Options for bar coded labels for individual reel and/or
pallet management.
- Options for automatic integration with Weighbridge
and Waste Control System.
