Because of Syspro, manufacturers and distributors gain complete command of production costs. Our purpose-built Work in Progress solution helps you move faster and operate smarter by tracking material, labor, and operational costs in real-time.
This platform delivers the shop floor visibility needed to identify variances, optimize workflows, and make confident, data-driven decisions that drive profitability and keep your operations resilient.
Improve your manufacturing workflow from job creation to completion. Syspro Work in Progress offers visibility and control over production processes, allowing manufacturers to manage work orders, schedules, and resource allocation effectively.
Take command of job costs with real-time tracking of materials, labor, and overhead. Because of Syspro, you can identify cost variances as they happen, enabling you to make faster adjustments that protect your margins and optimize resource allocation.
Reduce manual effort and improve data accuracy with automated material issuance and labor posting. Streamline your job processing to eliminate redundant tasks, operate faster, and free up your team to focus on value-added activities.
Make smarter decisions with a clear, real-time view of job status and progress across all work centers. Our intuitive dashboards and reports provide the critical information you need to respond to production changes with speed and confidence.
Boost efficiency with smart capacity planning and load levelling. Scheduling tools help distribute workloads evenly, avoid bottlenecks, and ensure the best use of machinery, labor, and materials.
Job & Work Order Management
Create, track, and manage work orders from start to finish with full audit trails. The system supports both standard and custom product manufacturing, job scheduling, and automatic calculation of material requirements using Bill of Materials integration.
Material & Labor Allocation Control
Issue materials and post labor using various methods such as real-time, batch processing, and backflush operations. Support for substitutions, rework jobs, and subcontracted operations provides flexibility in managing production.
Costing & Variance Analysis
Monitor material, labor, and overhead costs in real-time with detailed variance analysis. Reporting includes WIP valuation, job status tracking, labor efficiency analysis, and monitoring of non-productive time to help with decision making.
Quality & Inspection Management
Record inspection transactions, manage scrap and rework, and maintain quality standards throughout production. Inspection workflows ensure compliance while providing traceability for regulatory needs and improvement initiatives
Multi-Level Production Planning
Use trial kitting, advanced scheduling, and capacity planning tools to optimize production workflows. Load leveling helps prevent bottlenecks while job nesting improves material use across multiple work orders.
Essential for material availability and stock level management during production. Work in Progress automatically updates inventory levels when materials are issued to jobs and finished goods are received, ensuring accurate stock tracking and preventing production delays due to material shortages.
Critical integration for automatic material requirement calculation and job structure. WIP pulls material requirements directly from BOM structures, ensuring accurate material allocation and enabling automatic kit generation for production jobs.
Streamlines procurement processes for production materials and subcontracted services. Integration enables automatic purchase order generation for material shortages identified through trial kitting and direct linking of receipts to specific jobs for accurate cost tracking.
Provides comprehensive financial integration for accurate cost accounting and reporting. All WIP transactions automatically update GL accounts for materials, labor, and overhead costs, supporting real-time financial visibility and month-end processing.
Links customer orders directly to production jobs for complete order fulfillment tracking. Integration ensures production schedules align with customer delivery requirements while enabling direct job-to-order cost allocation and profitability analysis.
Supports quality control processes throughout production with inspection workflows. Integration enables quality checkpoints at various production stages, automatic scrap recording, and quality data capture for compliance and continuous improvement initiatives.
Optimizes material picking, allocation, and location tracking for production jobs. WIP integration with warehouse management ensures efficient material flow from storage to production while maintaining accurate bin location tracking and pick optimization.
