Office Furniture System
Office Furniture Business Management System
Suitable for business that produce highly customisable furniture. Complete System capable of offering millions of permutations on carcase colour, edging color, metalwork, handles etc. Create parametric bills so that custom size cabinets are cost and produced accurately.
Design the room, then get a cost for it and show the profit margin for the elected selling price.
Within a quotation swap options e.g. veneers to see the impact on cost.
Create quotations by rooms and sections within rooms. Give titles to rooms and sections so that a quotation can be easily followed and understood.
Copy and paste rooms or sections from quotation to quotation or within a single quotation for fast preparation or edit of large projects.
Features of Bills of materials:
- Full database library for all components, items and services that the system needs to recognize, by item code and description, along with all the various operational 'flags'
- Fully integrated multiple levels of the Bills of Materials, with full flexibility to go as 'deep' as you want to Labour and material percentage shrinkage / wastage features
- Automatic calculation of any fluid applications such as lacquer / paint and associated cost, based on area plus values entered for density, coverage and number of coats
- Facility to hold multiple operations, and the material and labour associated with each operation, at each level of the Bill Copy bill feature for fast creation of similar bills.
- 'Fish' diagram of complete Bill of Material, with all components, sizes and formulae used at every level, that are automatically created for easy viewing to help to ensure the Bills are accurate and complete
- Facility to enter product 'Options' e.g. Colour, size etc. against common or standard components, which can be stored in the products BOM set-up, and subsequently shown in the SOP module for order entry, customer quotations, and Costings for the product, and which can be entered without having to make a fresh BOM for each new product, on each occasion
- Once a part number and description have been created, there is no more 'keying-in', just 'point and click'
- Facility for entering automatic formulae for 'parametric' conversions, which will calculate and show the number and sizes of the parts required to make up a 'saleable' item, according to the size entered for the item on the order, and that then uses a common or standard BOM
- Easy entry for additional new 'Options' for any items that have been set up as possessing a selection of colours / sizes etc. in order to allow a BOM to be quickly and accurately be put together.
Features of Costing:
- Effortless calculation of selling prices
- Can build up costs to any level of the Bill of Materials, and report on 'rolled-up' costs at each level
- Facility for auto-calculation of costs working up the Bills using current or standard costs
- Click on an item to pick up material and labour costs from the Bill of Materials, or enter an estimate and the system will automatically work out the portion of overhead to apply
- Reporting of costs at current or standard as required, with facility to transfer current to standard at any time, for budgeting and variance reporting purposes
- Global default Percentage figures for consumables, overheads, distribution costs and profit or specific item percentage values, can be set. The system will hold these percentages and re-calculate the values as costs fluctuate
- Versatile options on costs generated by the BOM allows the user to build in specific operational overheads, to recover costs of capital equipment e.g. CNC machines
- Enter a specific selling price, and the system will show the profit made at that price
- Option to work from a fixed selling price with set increments for specific options (automatically calculated as options selected) -Or cost plus margin (global or specific) to determine the selling price. These costing rules can be set at item level as appropriate
- Enter the profit, and the system calculates the selling price, ensuring overheads, as entered, are correctly covered
- Facility to enter default percentages for consumables, distribution, and overheads, which are applied if there are no other fixed values specifically entered against an item
- Simple entry and application of Standard Costs v Current Costs for easy viewing of variances
