Production Module Enhancements

Production Module Enhancements

We have introduced significant improvements in the Production Master, Production Execution, and Time Slot-wise Production.
These updates aim to make production planning faster, execution smoother, and management more organised.

1. Production Master

  • New Screen Design

    • The interface to add production processes has been redesigned.

    • Cleaner layout for easier navigation and process addition.

    • Better alignment, grouping, and field arrangement for faster entry.

  • Functionality

    • No changes in how Production Master works — only the design has been improved.

    • You can still create, edit, and delete production processes exactly as before.







2. Production Execution

We now offer two main types of production for flexibility in different scenarios:

A) Direct Production

Purpose: For quick production without linking to any Purchase Order (PO).

How it works:

  1. Select from Left Panel – All production processes you created in the Production Master appear on the left side.

  2. Click to Add – When you click a process, the system automatically moves it to the right panel for execution.

  3. Review Ingredients – Check the list of ingredients the system will consume for the production process.

  4. Convert to Production – Confirm and finalise the production.

Limits:

  • Manual Entry: You can add up to 20 production processes at a time.

  • Excel Upload: No limit — you can upload large batch production via Excel, and the system will auto-convert them into completed production records.

Excel Upload Process:

  • The same as before — simply upload the file with the required format.

  • The system will instantly create production entries for all listed processes.






B) Production Against Purchase Order (PO)

Purpose: To produce items based on POs raised by restaurants or outlets.

Two ways to view the PO data:

  1. B1) Raw Material Wise

    • Shows a combined list of all raw materials required across multiple POs.

    • Useful for bulk planning, when you want to produce based on total demand from multiple POs.


  2. B2) PO Wise

    • Shows each PO’s requirements separately.

    • Useful when you want to produce exactly as per each specific PO.


Key Difference:

  • Raw Material Wise → Combined view for all POs.

  • PO Wise → Separate view for each PO.


New Actions Available in Both Views:
For both Raw Material Wise and PO Wise, you can now perform three actions directly from the same screen:

  1. Convert to Production

    • Instantly create production entries from the PO data.

  2. Raise PO to Supplier

    • If raw material stock is insufficient to complete the production, you can raise a supplier PO directly from this screen.

  3. Generate Production Plan

    • Create a production plan for your chef or staff.

    • Two export options:

      • Export to PDF – Can be printed on both standard printers and thermal printers (ideal for kitchen use).

        Notes
        (While printing, 70% scale size is advisable for better visibility)

      • Export to Excel – For digital sharing, further editing, or reporting.


3. Time Slot-wise Production

Purpose: To filter and manage production processes based on defined time slots, helping reduce screen clutter and improve planning.

Setup:

  • Go to Inventory Settings and create time slots.

  • Assign production processes from the Production Master to each slot.


Example:

  • Morning Slot: 6:00 AM – 9:00 AM

  • Assigned Processes: Pizza Gravy, Pasta Gravy, Paneer Gravy

Effect in Production Execution:

  • During the morning slot, only these assigned processes will be visible for production.

  • If no slot is assigned to a process, it will be shown under Morning Slot + Others.


Benefits:

  • Allows you to split production throughout the day.

  • Reduces clutter on the production execution screen by showing only relevant processes.

  • Helps in better kitchen workload management


Alert
In the merchant application old view of generating a production plan and conversion is going to be visible.
In POS, there is no change same old flow is going to be visible.
