For the Manufacturer

Sheds Manufacturer Module

The "Manufacturer Module" is a feature-packed, industrial strength version of Sheds built for manufacturing plants.

- Displays cost and margin on every building
- Sales lot inventory
- Automatic raw materials inventory
- Calculates builder pay, driver pay, sales commissions
- Allows dealers to input and submit orders
- Production scheduling

Sheds displays the margin on the structures list. In this case the target margin is set at 10%, so those below that are shown in red. The suggested retail price is the price needed to achieve the target margin.

Here on the Edit Structures form, we allocate raw materials and keep track sales, labor and other costs for each building. Your profit is shown here too.

Sheds keeps track of orders from the time the dealer submits them until after they're shipped and invoiced. No need to file paper copies of orders because Sheds maintains them for life.

The Order input window is designed to get the job done with as few keystrokes and mouse clicks as possible. Select the building, options, and colors from drop down lists. Quantities, prices and totals calculate for you. You can scan and attach a layout drawing or a floor plan image and this will print on the shop production order. Please note: Sheds does not have "floor plan drawing" capability, but you can attach an image file from any 3rd party drawing application.

Schedule buildings for production.

The printed Production Schedule is sorted by Build Date and Order Number.

The Delivery Load Planner lets you select a truck, add buildings, schedule it, and print delivery receipts.

Production Status Board - Shows all buildings in work...ideal for display on a wide screen monitor.

Sheds gives you the option to run an "after-the-fact" cost report for every building you make. It shows labor, materials and options costs and gross profit.

If you'd like it to assign overhead costs to each job, we can make it do that too.
