Tips from module settings
- Return unused issued quantity back to inventory. Stock is restored via Inventory Management.
- Scan or enter a work order number, ID, or OP:123 for an operation.
- Each line must match a CRM item that is registered as a finished/semi-finished manufacturing product with an active BOM. Invoice line description must match the item name (or product code).
- Overall Equipment Effectiveness = Availability × Performance × Quality. Based on workstation downtime, operation timers, and production receipts.
- Enable REST API and authenticate with Authorization: Bearer or X-API-Key header. Base URL: /manufacturing/api/
- Signing secret — verify X-Manufacturing-Signature header (HMAC SHA256).
- 0 = use global default from settings.
- Send header: X-BI-Token: your-token
- Enter a batch number to list all customers and shipments that received product from this lot.
- One serial per line (or comma-separated)
- Visual timeline of scheduled operations by workstation
- Create a rework work order for failed quantity
- Record scrap and deduct from inventory
- POST JSON readings to this endpoint with X-IoT-Secret header
- Forecast demand from invoice sales history using moving average
- Use token-authenticated CSV/JSON endpoints for external BI tools
- When checked, toggles batch release, FEFO, QC templates, and related options for the selected profile.
- Trace finished-good serials to component serials and parent assemblies (assembly & automotive).
- Optional: one line per finished serial — PARENT|CHILD1,CHILD2 (links at receipt)
- Maintain allergen master data and assign contains / may contain flags to inventory items.
- Choose a BIXCRM inventory item, then set allergen presence for that item.
- Inventory items are not available — enter the BIXCRM item ID manually.
- Select Contains, May Contain, or None for each allergen. Declaration rolls up from BOM ingredients.
- Derived from allergen assignments on raw material items in this BOM.
- Track fabric rolls with shade, GSM, width, and remaining length for cutting and dyeing.
- Optional: issue from a fabric roll (consumes meters and checks shade matching).
- Define size × color variants for a style BOM. Quantities scale from base BOM output.
- Step-by-step batch manufacturing records with signatures for pharma compliance.
- QC must release raw material lots before they can be issued to production.
- Lot must be QC-released before issue.
- Reserve retain and stability samples per production batch for QC and regulatory compliance.
- Temperature, humidity, and cleanroom readings linked to batches and eBR records.
- Registry of IQ, OQ, PQ, and validation evidence with review due dates.
- Define secondary outputs from a batch (co-products and by-products) scaled from recipe BOM yield.
- Record actual co-product quantities received into inventory with this production receipt.
- Track tanks, reactors, and mixers tied to batches and work orders.
- Defaults to accepted qty if blank
