From tracking material issued to vendors to billing and reporting, managing jobwork manually or using fragmented systems leads to inefficiencies, delays and loss of accountability.

To stay competitive and scalable, metal fabrication businesses are now turning to digital solutions like SkyERP GST Plus, which bring structure, automation and transparency to jobwork operations.

The Real Challenge in Jobwork for Metal Fabrication

• Poor tracking of materials sent to jobworkers
• Delayed or inaccurate billing cycles
• Lack of visibility into pending or completed jobwork
• Difficulty in process-wise consumption tracking
• Mismatch in Purchase Order (PO) vs actual issues or receipts

These issues directly impact production timelines, customer commitments and ultimately – profitability.

Manage Jobwork the better way with SkyERP GST Plus

SkyERP GST Plus is tailor-made for industries like metal fabrication, where jobwork is not just a support activity, but an integral part of the production business.

 Here’s how its advanced modules address industry pain points:

1. BILL OF MATERIAL (BOM) FOR JOBWORK

Create detailed BOM’s for outsourced processes to ensure jobworkers receive precise material quantities. This minimizes wastage and ensures uniformity in outputs.

2. INVENTORY MANAGEMENT (Customer-wise)

Track inward and outward movement of materials customer-wise to maintain absolute clarity over who owns what and how much. This is critical in cases where clients supply their own raw materials.

3. JOBWORK BILLING (Monthly Periodical) with E-Invoice

Avoid billing delays with automated monthly or periodical jobwork invoices, fully complaint with GST norms and integrated with e-invoicing features.

4. INTELLIGENT REPORTS THAT DRIVE ACTION

Gain access to real-time jobwork reports that help with decision making:

• Bill of Material Consumption
• Jobwork – Process wise status
• Jobwork – Pending Overview
• Jobwork – Stock Ledger
• Work Order Register
• Dispatch Challan Register
• Jobwork Invoice Register

These reports provide operational clarity and highlight bottlenecks before they become critical issues.

COMPARE PURCHASE ORDERS WITH GROUND REALITY

• Purchase order vs issue: Know what was promised vs what was issued to vendors.
• Purchase Order vs Receipt: Monitor actual receipt of finished goods and raw material.
• Schedule vs Receipt: Stay ahead of delivery commitments and production schedules.

These features ensure vendor accountability and protect your business from potential losses.
