Ostendo for Manufacturing with MYOB and Quickbooks Integration

MANUFACTURING and custom products
- Manufacturing incorporates making products to order or to stock
- Can choose the level of simplicity or complexity that you wish to use
- Ranges from an assembly order with no details, through using simple Bills of Material, or simple routing, to full use of combined BOM, routing & resources with cost rollups
- Orders can be generated on the fly, source on demand, from a prescheduled planned order, or as a configured custom product
- BOM's include setup, scrap percentage
- BOM's can be as many levels deep as required
- BOM's can also be phantom assemblies
- Each line in a BOM can optionally be linked to a step in the routing, and each routing step can identify the detailed resource requirements
- Mass global replacement facility is used for substituting items and a where used enquiry for BOM's.
- Can use automatic backflush for items instead of issuing components line by line
- Able to have additional outputs to the main product covered under the bill of material
          - co-products are planned products that will be produced with the main product
          - by-products which may be generated as a result of making the main product

Custom Products
Have two types :-
Rules Based
- Simple question and answer interface to design, cost and price customer specific products and services
- Create the rules for your configured products and services
- Rules can be simple with features and options, through to complex dimensional rules based configurations
- Can also define rules for calculating prices
- Based on the answers to the questions at the quote or sales order entry stage, the system automatically generates and stores a unique design to make the product or service at a later time specifically for that customer eg BOM and routing
- Custom products or services that have a future ongoing service commitment can be automatically converted to a customer service asset at the time of sale.
