Manufacturing Module Overview
CushionsERP provides a Manufacturing module (MRP / Production Orders) that lets you create, monitor, and manage multiple Manufacturing Orders (MOs). You can easily track each MO's status, progress, and outputβall from the UI.
π How to Monitor Manufacturing Orders in CushionsERP
Once you activate the βManufacturingβ module, you can go to: π Manufacturing β Production Orders (or Manufacturing Orders) There, you'll find a list of all MOs with the following built-in tracking tools:
β 1. Status Tracking
Each Manufacturing Order has a status badge:
| Status | Meaning | UI Color (Default) |
|---|---|---|
| β Draft | Not yet validated | Gray |
| π‘ Validated | Ready to start | Yellow |
| π΅ In progress | Materials consumed, process ongoing | Blue |
| β Done | Production completed | Green |
| π« Cancelled | Canceled MO | Red |
β 2. Filtering and Monitoring in the UI
You can use the filter/search bar to quickly view:
- Only in-progress orders
- Only completed ones
- Orders by product
- Orders by date range, warehouse, etc.
β This helps production planners or supervisors get a live view of the manufacturing pipeline.
β 3. Linked Elements View
Each MO can have links to:
- BOM used
- Stock movement
- Workstations
- Operators (if tracked)
Plus:
- View what raw materials were consumed
- See what was produced and added to stock
π Step-by-step MO Lifecycle

| β Validated | BOM is expanded into components, materials reserved |
| βοΈ In Progress | You consume raw materials, possibly in batches |
| π¦ Done | Finished goods are added to stock |
| π§Ύ Linked | Optionally linked to sales orders or delivery |

- Export to Excel/CSV for reporting
π§© Bonus: Email Notification or Triggers
You can also:
