Raw Material Usage

• “Stock Manufactured” transactions can be used to record items manufactured.
• Goods Issued transactions are automatically generated for each component used in the recorded manufacture, with the quantity being the theoretical quantity used in producing the finished products. If there are sub assemblies on hand, these will be issued instead of their components.
• a full audit trail of what has been manufactured and materials used can be maintained.
• The theoretical and actual raw material (and sub-assembly) usage can be checked at any time by stocktaking the raw materials to be checked. Any resulting stocktake variance will be the difference between the actual and theoretical usage. This gives control over cost and production variances.
