Project Name
Improving Inventory Visibility & Material Planning with ERPNext
A mid-sized automotive parts manufacturing company was facing constant inventory challenges. Poor stock visibility, frequent mismatches, and manual tracking slowed down production and caused repeated delays. Their warehouse teams struggled to maintain accurate stock records, and stockouts of critical materials directly affected order fulfillment.
To overcome these issues, the company wanted a centralized system to bring real-time accuracy, automated tracking, and improved material planning. Ksolves, a trusted ERPNext Development Company, implemented a fully customized ERPNext solution to streamline their inventory processes and enhance production efficiency.
-
Inaccurate Stock Levels
Manual entries and spreadsheet-based tracking caused frequent mismatches between actual and recorded stock, leading to production delays and rechecking efforts. -
No Real-Time Inventory Visibility
The team couldn’t view available stock, reserved stock, or incoming materials in real time — affecting production planning and procurement decisions. -
Unpredictable Reorder Planning
Without automated reorder rules, the company frequently ran out of fast-moving materials and overstocked slow-moving components, increasing storage costs.
As part of Ksolves’ ERPNext Services, the following customized solutions were implemented:
-
Real-Time Inventory Dashboard
ERPNext’s dashboard was configured to display live stock levels, warehouse availability, pending purchase orders, and reserved quantities, enabling instant decision-making. -
Automated Reorder Levels
Intelligent reorder rules were set up to trigger automatic alerts for low stock based on consumption patterns, ensuring timely procurement. -
Barcode-Based Inventory Movement
Barcode scanning was introduced across warehouses to track item receipts, transfers, and deliveries, eliminating manual errors and improving traceability.
-
99% Inventory Accuracy
Real-time tracking, automated updates, and barcode scanning nearly eliminated stock discrepancies and manual errors. -
50% Reduction in Stockouts
Automated reorder levels ensured seamless material availability, supporting uninterrupted production cycles. -
25% Lower Inventory Costs
Better visibility and improved material planning helped reduce excess stock purchases and optimize storage costs.
By leveraging Ksolves’ ERPNext Consulting and implementation expertise, the automotive manufacturer transformed its inventory operations. With real-time accuracy, automated tracking, and intelligent planning, the company now runs smoother production cycles, reduces risks, and operates with complete stock visibility.
This case study demonstrates how ERPNext Solutions from Ksolves deliver measurable improvements and help manufacturers achieve efficient, scalable, and cost-effective operations.
