The module for provides businesses with the tools to accurately calculate and track the costs associated with their manufacturing processes. By integrating material, labor, and overhead costs, this module offers a comprehensive view of production expenses, facilitating better financial planning and analysis.

  • Material Cost Calculation: Automatically calculate material costs based on the components used in the manufacturing process.

  • Labor Cost Tracking: Track labor costs by assigning labor rates to work centers and recording actual labor hours spent on production.

  • Overhead Cost Allocation: Allocate overhead costs to manufacturing orders based on predefined criteria, ensuring accurate cost distribution.

  • Real-Time Costing: Obtain real-time updates on production costs as manufacturing orders and work orders are processed.

  • Cost Reporting: Generate detailed reports on material, labor, and overhead costs to analyze and optimize production expenses.

  • Enhanced Cost Visibility: Gain a clear understanding of production costs, enabling informed decision-making.

  • Improved Financial Planning: Utilize accurate cost data to forecast expenses and set competitive pricing strategies.

  • Operational Efficiency: Identify cost-saving opportunities and streamline manufacturing processes.

  • Compliance and Reporting: Ensure compliance with financial reporting standards and regulations.

Real-Time Process Costing for MRP

Process Costing with Material, Labour, Overhead

Manufacturing Costing for Material, Labour, Overhead

Detailed Manufacturing Costing with Overhead Support

Manufacturing Process Costing apps is use to calculate process costing of manufacturing and its workorder process with define labour cost and overhead cost from work center. This apps helps to calculate Material Cost, Labour Cost, Overheads Cost for manufacturing and production orders when MO and workorder finished. Its calculates estimated costing and real costing both , estimated costing calculated on Bill of Material-BOM and real costing calculated on Manufacturing Order based on real-time consumption and actual quantity consumption on production order, So production manager can see difference of estimated costing and real costing to improve the productivity.You can also see the process costing calcualtion on Manufacturing order reports.

Process Costing Configurations

User can select manufacturing process costing method as "Manually" or "Work-Center" under Manufacturing > Configurations menu.


Costing Method 1. Manually Process Costing for BOM and MO


Bill of Materials - Direct Material Cost

If process costing configuration is "Manually" then user have to add all costing data manually, user can see that direct material cost automatically added based on components of the Bill Of Material.


If user want to add direct material cost manually then you can also add.


Bill of Materials - Direct Labour Cost

User can manually add Cost/Hour for Direct Labour Cost and Direct Overhead Cost and this costing will pass to MO from BOM.


Bill of Materials - Direct Overhead Cost

You can configure Direct Overhead Cost on Bill of Materials.
