Job Costing & Inventory

Job Costing

Job Costing is the vital hub of BusinessCraft in the engineering and manufacturing environment. All collected costs are live from labour, materials, purchase orders, subcontractors and sundry expenses and used to calculate Work In Progress.

Live job analysis as the job progresses via reporting options that display:
- Current job cost explosion
- Labour efficiency and utilisation
- Cost centre analysis
- Costs vs budgets, forecasts or estimates
- Variations to job, job sections & cost centres
- Margin analysis

Jobs can be analysed by Job Type, Job Status, Customer Type, Job Manager, Site Supervisor and Market segment. Job scheduling is available by ordered date, required date, scheduled date or released date.

Document Register

The document register within BusinessCraft provides totally user-definable document types to suit your business requirements. Record all telephone calls, emails, mail merge letters, faxes, drawings, photos and more in one location associated with a job, account or specific person. All document register items are stored in a central location on your server, ensuring that regular backups keep your vital information safe.

Inventory Management

Inventory Management enables the control of your raw materials, finished goods and sub-assemblies, and is integrated with Job Costing, Purchasing, and Bill of Materials.

This module allows for the detailed reporting of item numbers, serial numbers, supplier numbers, with multiple locations and nominated bins, and accurate stock valuations.

Simple to use and fully integrated with the financial modules, BusinessCraft takes the pain out of doing stocktakes. With distributions automatically created for authorised stocktakes, and adjustments being posted also, all conducted with a full audit trail.

Bill of Materials

Bill of Materials is tightly integrated to Inventory Control for simple usage. Graphical display of all assemblies and up to 8 levels of sub-assemblies can be used with simple creation of new assemblies “on the fly”.

Job Cards are generated for multiple level assemblies associated with larger jobs. And all assembly components are tagged as manufactured or purchased via requisitions.
