ExoMake Manufacturing

Flexible and Simplistic Manufacturing Systems from Ordering through to Dispatch

The manufacturing system manages the process and is broken down into Orders, production Schedule, Production Records, Dispatch. Because ExoMake is completely integrated into MYOB Exo there is no double up on data entry. Orders are taken directly from MYOB Exo and are scheduled based on dispatch date. This enables ExoMake to provide stock requirements, production is then scheduled, production records are entered after production is complete and dispatch confirms QA testing and finalizes transactions before dispatch.

The ExoMake methodology is ‘many people are responsible for specific parts of the system’ allowing a large complex process to be broken up into many simplistic manageable parts.

  • Manufacturing Module
    • Orders (Customer Orders by Dispatch Date)
    • Production Schedule (Weekly Production Plan by Department)
    • Production (Manufacturing Records / Wastage)
    • Dispatch (QC Audit / dispatch records)
    • Reports
