SKU explosion
Design, thickness, finish, size. One catalogue becomes thousands of items and the stock register stops keeping up.
Industry ERP
Thousands of SKUs, one press schedule, and no guessing what is actually in the godown.
The Industry
A laminate catalogue explodes fast. Every design × thickness × finish × size is its own SKU, dealers order in mixed lots, and the press line only makes money when it runs full. The hard part is not manufacturing — it is information: what to press next, what is sitting in which godown, and which dealer is overdue.
Where It Breaks
Design, thickness, finish, size. One catalogue becomes thousands of items and the stock register stops keeping up.
Which design, which thickness, in what sequence — planned on a whiteboard and changed by phone.
Dealer-wise limits, schemes and outstanding tracked in Excel. Overdue is discovered too late.
Physical stock across godowns never matches the ledger until someone does a count.
Base paper, décor paper, resin — consumption drifts from standard, and the margin drifts with it.
How The System Handles It
Each one answers a problem on the previous list. Take the modules you need; add the rest when the plant is ready.
Design × thickness × finish × size generated as a matrix, not typed one by one. Barcodes per SKU.
Batches planned by design and thickness with a capacity view. Sequence changes ripple to the floor instantly.
Location-wise stock, transfers and reservations in real time. Physical and system counts finally agree.
Credit limits, schemes, outstanding and order history per dealer. Holds enforced before dispatch, not after.
Raw material issued against standard per batch. Variance per press run, not per quarter.
Vehicle-wise loading, dealer invoicing and e-way bill generation from the same order.
Questions We Get
If yours is not here, ask it — we would rather answer than guess.
That is the normal case for laminates. SKUs are generated as a matrix of design, thickness, finish and size, so a new design with six thicknesses is one entry, not six. Stock, pricing and reporting all work at the SKU level.
Yes. Every godown is a location with its own stock, and transfers between them are recorded as they happen. A dealer order can be fulfilled from whichever location has the sheets.
Each dealer carries a credit limit, outstanding, ageing and any scheme applicable. The system flags a dealer over limit before the dispatch is created, not after the goods have gone.
GST invoicing is built in, and e-way bills are generated from the dispatch itself — vehicle, distance and consignee already known — so nothing is entered twice.
