Manufacturing ordersCaptured from the public MyCompany demo

One order. Every step.

The production cycle, end to end

A manufacturing order plans the work, reserves the materials and explains its own cost — no spreadsheets in between.

01

Define

Multi-level BOMs with components, by-products and operations.

02

Plan

Create orders by hand — or straight from sales orders.

03

Produce

Reserve materials and run work orders through work centers.

04

Cost

Write off materials and post actual costs to the ledger.

Also covered
  • Disassembly orders
  • By-products
  • Production scrap
  • Lot & serial tracking

Built for real production

Simple on the floor.
Serious underneath.

Product structure

BOMs that mirror how you build

Component quantities scale with the ordered amount, by-products come out alongside the main product, and nested BOMs describe assemblies inside assemblies — with a default BOM picked automatically on every new order.

Make-to-order

Sales demand, straight to the floor

Create manufacturing orders directly from confirmed sales orders. The to-produce quantity drives material needs, and stock is checked and reserved before work starts.

Work centers

See capacity. Assign work.

The load dashboard shows every work center day by day, and new work orders start right from its cells. Each one moves through Ready, In progress and Done — with bulk actions for many at once.

Purchasing connected

Missing materials, ordered in one click

Shortages become purchase orders straight from the manufacturing order list — aggregated across orders and grouped by vendor. Auto-order suggestions blend sales forecasts with production needs.

Actuals, not estimates

Know what every order really cost.

Costs flow into the order as production happens — and post to the cost ledger the moment it is done. Unit cost is the real line cost divided by the quantity actually produced.

Not a bolt-on module

Manufacturing is already part of your ERP

Sales, purchasing, inventory and invoicing share one database with production — including lot and serial-number tracking. Finished goods land on stock the moment an order is done, and you can even unbuild products back into components.

Questions, answered

Before you start

Need a detail that is not covered here? Talk to our team.

Is MyCompany suitable for a small manufacturer?

Yes — that is exactly who it is built for. It is free, installs on your own server in 10-15 minutes, and covers BOMs, orders, work centers and costing without the overhead of a heavyweight ERP project.

Does it handle multi-level bills of materials?

Yes. BOMs can be nested to describe hierarchical product structures, with component quantities defined per base quantity so they scale with the order.

How is the cost of a manufactured product calculated?

On actuals: material write-offs and scrap, labor from project time entries and services from supplier bills are distributed to the order. Unit cost equals the line cost divided by the actual quantity, posted to the cost ledger when the order is done.

Can I plan production by work center capacity?

Yes. The work center load dashboard shows capacity as a matrix by day, and you can create work orders directly from its cells.

Does it support make-to-order production?

Yes. Manufacturing orders can be created straight from sales orders, and missing materials can be purchased from the same order list, grouped by vendor.

Is it really free?

Yes. MyCompany is open source under the Apache 2.0 license and is self-hosted, so there are no per-user fees, hidden costs or license lock-in. Paid help with customization and support is optional.
