Material Resource Planning
Manufacturing source of truth with MRP capabilities
Fishbowl Advanced™ offers many of the integral feature sets of a material resource planning (MRP) solution without the cost. Connect your manufacturing processes, inventory management, ecommerce, sales, CRM, and accounting functions in a single platform. Access true business planning from end to end.
Configuration Management
Make data-driven production adjustments on the fly
Wether you run a repetitive or discrete manufacturing process, Fishbowl Advanced gives you control and flexibility with its configuration management features. Set up standard steps and include optional adjustments along the way, which allow you to accommodate customization and account for errors, or labor discrepancies.
With connection to your accounting platform, like QuickBooks, you can automatically link labor time and consumed materials costs to the cost of finished goods. Easily run reports for work-in-progress (WIP) to specify how much product is in production, allowing for a more holistic view of manufacturing’s impact on cash flow and taxes. Stay empowered to make informed decisions about your sales margins.
