BatchMaster Manufacturing For QuickBooks

Take Advantage of Food, Chemical, Nutraceutical, and Pharmaceutical Specific Manufacturing Capabilities

Formula Based, Process Manufacturing Application for QuickBooks

BatchMaster Manufacturing for QuickBooks solution effectively manages all the process manufacturing complexities inherent to the food & beverage, chemical, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries. Our application supports Sample Management, Lab, Recipe Management, Production, Costing, Quality, Compliance, Planning, Scheduling and Warehousing processes. In addition, Inventory, Sales Orders, and Purchasing are under BatchMaster’s control because our Planning and Scheduling modules require access to critical, granular manufacturing, customer, sales, and purchase order data in order to generate detailed plans on what needs to be made and when it needs to be made, as well as generate the right purchase orders for the materials required to execute that plan at the right time.

Process manufacturers running QuickBooks Premier, Pro, Enterprise or Online Editions can all take advantage of our BatchMaster Manufacturing application, which can be quickly deployed either on-premise or in the cloud.

Effectively Manage Your Plant Operation

BatchMaster’s industry specific manufacturing application for QuickBooks gives you all the time-saving tools and real-time actionable data across the following processes to make more informed decisions, faster.

Processing Software That Will Change the Way You Work

Inventory

Inventory management tracks, adjusts and moves ingredients, packaging, intermediates, co-products, by-products and finished goods, in terms of their QC statuses, weights, volumes, and units, as well as plant locations and licenses. Here are just a few supported transactions:

Maintain allergens, safety, certifications, and other industry specific attributes and documents
Allocate inventory based upon expiry dates, certifications and quality status
Adjust batch jobs based upon the variable characteristics of inventory
Execute warehousing tasks with mobile devices

Traceability

Lot controlled inventory is managed from receiving into production thru shipping, thus maintaining the lineage of all raw materials, intermediates and finished products, including co-products and by-products. Here are just a few supported transactions:

Auto assign lot numbers during receiving and production
Mandated capture and validation of lot numbers throughout the product lifecycle
Execute “bi-directional” searches in seconds using a graphical lot traceability tool
Generate recall letters for suppliers and customers

Quality

Quality control and quality assurance capabilities are built all processes managed by our food manufacturing software, from receiving into production thru shipping. Here are just a few supported transactions:

Setup QC tests with accepted values, tolerance values, sample and recount values
Execute inspection plans, checklists and QC tests against products, people and equipment
Generate COA and production deviation documents
Manage adverse reporting, customer complaints, deviations, and nonconformance situations

Production

Production manages the mix, blend, fill, assemble, and other manufacturing processes for intermediates and finished goods, including co-products and by-products, across facilities. Here are just a few supported transactions:

Dynamically sizing, linking and scheduling dependent batch jobs together
Managing equipment and resource availability and capacities
Reworking intermediates and finished goods and capture deviations
Automatically back flushing inventory for partially or fully closed jobs

Formulation

Formulation allows multiple users to manage multiple specification versions for products, including intermediates, co-praoducts and by-products, separately from their packaging specifications (BOM). Here are just a few supported transactions:

Dynamically adjust ingredient weights/volumes to meet property target values
Account for fixed and variable labor costs, including consumable costs
Analyze and compare specifications / versions
Employ multi-level workflow approval process

Compliance

Industry specific compliance are built into every process to ensure federal and industry specific regulatory mandates are met. Here are just a few supported transactions:

Alert formulators when specs exceed industry established levels
Mandate the capture of item, user and location data (CFR 11)
Maintain key transactional history for auditor reports (e.g. Master Batch Records)
Generate industry required product and safety labels and documents

Planning & Scheduling

MPS creates the optimal number of batch jobs required to meet current and forecasted demand, then MRP creates the optimal number of purchase orders to meet the scheduled production schedule. Here are just a few supported transactions:

Establish short, medium and long-range planning periods
Run by facility, or by an item or a range of items across facilities
Consolidate supply and demand across facilities
Perform “what-if analysis” while planning production
