Adding a manufacturer

The manufacturer is the institution or factory that produces the finished products. All products and semi-finished products produced during production orders are given a batch number and the name of the manufacturer is also added. Batch information and manufacturer(s) are displayed in the Batches Extra Info register. The manufacturer is also necessary to complete production orders!

To add a manufacturer, go to Stock -> Settings -> Manufacturers

Add a new manufacturer and give it a name.

Batches Extra Info list displays articles that have received a batch number through a production order. Articles that have been produced, include the name of the manufacturer. Articles (such as materials) with batch traceability attached (marked on the article card) are also displayed in Batches Extra Info register. On incoming inventory you can add a manufacturer manually to articles with batch traceability.
