Define the exact raw components required to build your finished goods. Update your recipes as material availability changes to keep production moving.
Know exactly how much stock you hold before accepting a large order. Track raw materials as they arrive and consume them during production.
Calculate the actual cost of a finished item by combining the purchase price of raw materials and accounting for production wastage.
Quote new jobs with confidence. When you know your exact unit costs, you can set prices that guarantee a margin rather than guessing.
Issue clear instructions to your production floor. Track the progress of active jobs and log the final yield when finished goods enter inventory.
Your production floor connects directly to your accounts. Material purchases, stock consumption, and finished goods sales automatically update your profit and loss statements.
Control your inputs
Light production relies on having the right inputs at the right time. If you run out of a crucial component, the entire floor stops. Paper & Pen lets you build detailed bills of materials for every product you manufacture. When you receive a new order, you can check your raw material inventory immediately to see if you can fulfil it. As you purchase supplies, the system logs the exact purchase price. This means your inventory valuation always reflects reality, giving you a clear picture of the capital tied up in your warehouse.

Track the build
Turning raw materials into finished goods rarely goes perfectly. Parts break, offcuts are discarded, and yields vary. With the manufacturing module, you can issue work orders that instruct your team on what to build. When the job finishes, you log the actual amount of raw stock consumed and the final number of finished items produced. This process automatically removes the components from your inventory and adds the finished goods. By recording the exact material used, including wastage, you capture the true reality of your production floor rather than an idealised estimate.

Protect your margins
You cannot set a profitable price if you do not know what an item costs to make. Because Paper & Pen tracks the purchase price of your raw materials and the exact quantities consumed during production, it calculates the true cost of every finished good. This includes the cost of the wasted material. When a customer asks for a quote on a custom batch, you can look up your historical job costs. You will know exactly where your break-even point is, allowing you to quote competitive prices that still protect your profit margins.
