Product Master and Bill of Materials
Define finished or intermediate products, raw materials, quantities, units, versions and effective dates. BOM approval and revision history should be controlled.
Business ERP Module
Manufacturing ERP Software for Ethiopian Factories
Connect raw materials, production plans, work orders, labor or machine inputs, finished goods, costing, sales and finance. The Manufacturing module of Dream ERP can help factories replace disconnected production spreadsheets with controlled records.
DreamTech can implement the module through Dream ERP, selected Odoo modules, ERPNext or a custom manufacturing system after validating products, bills of materials, stages, machines, capacity, quality, inventory, cost build-up, users and reports.

Core workflows
Core Manufacturing Capabilities
Formula, Recipe or Process Definition
Record approved ratios, formulas or recipes where relevant. Capture actual quantities and variance for review.
Routing and Work Centers
Define production operations and the work centers, machines or teams involved.
Production Planning
Create plans from forecast, sales demand, stock needs or management decisions. Consider materials, capacity, lead times and priorities.
Material Requirements Planning
Compare planned demand with available and expected stock. Suggested purchases or production should be reviewed by authorized planners.
Production Orders and Batches
Identify product, quantity, BOM version, dates, team, material requirement and output location.
Material Issue, Return and Substitution
Record materials issued, unused materials returned and approved substitutions.
Work in Process and Finished Goods
Track intermediate status and completed output, rejection, rework, scrap or by-products where relevant.
Production Costing
Cost build-up can combine approved material, labor, machine, overhead or other inputs. Changes to raw material, BOM, labor, overhead or fixed cost should follow approval before updating product cost or price.
Capacity and Scheduling
Compare planned work with machine, work-center, shift or team capacity.
Quality and Traceability
Add checkpoints, measurements, inspections, holds, rework or release steps where required by qualified owners.

How Manufacturing Connects to Other ERP Modules
Each connection is configured and tested against approved records, roles and posting or handoff rules.
Inventory and Warehouses
Production consumes raw materials and receives intermediate or finished goods.
Explore Inventory and Warehouse SoftwareProcurement
Material demand can generate approved purchase requirements.
Explore Procurement SoftwareAccounting and Finance
Material consumption, output, labor or overhead and variance can support costing and finance entries.
Explore Accounting and Finance SoftwareSales and CRM
Confirmed demand can feed make-to-stock, make-to-order or priority decisions.
Explore Sales and CRM SoftwareHR and Payroll
Skills, shifts, attendance and approved labor inputs can support capacity or costing.
Explore HR and Payroll SoftwareFixed Assets
Machines, molds, equipment and maintenance history can connect to the asset register.
