Controlled material procurement
Suppliers, approved orders, receiving, and invoice checking bring materials in under control.
Materials in, product out, cost you can actually see.
Manufacturing ERP that controls the material side of making things — procurement, inventory across warehouses, stock movement into and out of production, and cost posting to the ledger — so material cost and stock value are real numbers.
Manufacturing runs on materials, and material cost is where the margin is won or lost — yet it's often the least controlled part of the operation. Raw materials are bought loosely, stock moves in and out of production untracked, and the cost of what's made is estimated rather than known. Farexa controls the material side end to end: procurement brings materials in under approval, inventory tracks them across warehouses with valuation, and stock movements record what went into production and what came out.
The buy side is controlled — suppliers, orders, receiving, invoice checking — so materials cost what they should and you pay for what arrived. Inventory holds raw materials and finished goods across warehouses with recorded movements and stock value, so what's tied up in stock is a number, not a guess. And because it all posts to the ledger, material cost and inventory value feed finance directly rather than being reconciled from a production spreadsheet.
For a manufacturer, that's the foundation: buy materials under control, track them accurately through the operation, and see the cost — so pricing and margin are based on real numbers.
Key features
How Farexa maps to manufacturing.
Inventory across warehouses
Track raw materials and finished goods across warehouses with valuation.
Stock movement in and out of production
Record what went into production and what came out as movements.
Stock valuation
See what's tied up in raw materials and finished goods.
Material cost visibility
Material cost is a real number that posts to the accounts.
Warehouses and transfers
Hold and move materials between warehouses as recorded transfers.
Supplier performance
Read supplier activity and cost across purchases.
Posts to the ledger
Procurement and inventory cost post to accounts for real finance.
How it works
From material purchase to real cost.
01
Set up items and warehouses. Create materials, finished goods, suppliers, warehouses, and cost categories.
02
Procure materials under control. Raise approved orders, receive materials, and check supplier invoices.
03
Track through production. Record stock movement into and out of production, keeping the count honest.
04
Value the stock. Read what's tied up in raw materials and finished goods.
05
See the cost. Material and inventory cost post to the ledger, so finance reads real numbers.
Who it's for
Who makes things with it.
- Manufacturers and producers — The material side controlled from purchase to finished-goods stock.
- Assembly and fabrication businesses — Materials tracked into and out of production.
- Food and consumer-goods producers — Raw-material stock with movement and valuation.
- Production and finance managers — Production tracks materials; finance reads cost and value.
Works with
The app cluster for manufacturing.
- Procurement — Controlled material buying — orders, receiving, invoice checking.
- Inventory — Raw materials and finished goods with valuation.
- Warehouse — Materials held and moved across locations.
- Accounting — Material and inventory cost post to the ledger.
- Analytics — Material cost, stock value, and supplier reporting.
FAQ
What manufacturers ask.
Does it control material purchasing?
Yes. Procurement brings materials in under control — suppliers, approved orders, receiving, and supplier-invoice checking — so materials cost what they should and you pay for what actually arrived, which is where a lot of manufacturing margin leaks.
Can I track materials through production?
Yes. Stock movements record what went into production and what came out, across warehouses, so the count stays honest and stock value — raw materials and finished goods — is a real number rather than an estimate.
Does material cost reach finance?
Yes. Procurement and inventory cost post to the ledger, so material cost and stock value feed finance directly rather than being reconciled from a production spreadsheet.
Does it do full production planning and BOM?
Its strength is the material and cost side — procurement, inventory across warehouses, stock movement, and valuation posting to accounts. It's honest about that focus rather than claiming a full shop-floor planning suite, so the page describes what the platform actually controls.
Which apps does a manufacturer start with?
Usually Procurement and Inventory to control materials and stock, then Warehouse and Accounting so movement and cost stay connected, with Analytics for material cost and stock value.
