Customer reviews
COGS posts itself the moment we sell. No more month-end surprises on margin across our 4 warehouses.
Bill of materials, cost accountingand payroll on one ledger.
A bill of materials links raw stock to what you produce, and cost accounting follows automatically instead of being rebuilt at month-end. Production costs and paychecks come from the same numbers.
Free manufacturing accounting and B2B invoicing forever. No enterprise ERP price tag.

Two honest paths
What small manufacturers actually need, and what they don't.
Run in pieces, the bill of materials lives in a spreadsheet apart from stock, cost accounting is rebuilt by hand at month-end from production records, and shop-floor payroll runs separately from what was actually produced.
$0
for the core. Accounting and invoicing are free forever, with no card required. Add Inventory, HR or Payroll as production and headcount grow.
How it works
Four steps to shop-floor control.
1
Set up the bill of materials
Define the raw components and quantities needed to produce each finished unit.
2
Track production runs
Build orders deduct raw stock and add finished goods automatically.
3
Cost accounting, automatic
Material costs and operator hours post to cost of goods sold with no manual rebuild.
4
Run production payroll
Pay operators and assemblers from verified work logs on the same ledger.

Why it is still one system
Bill of materials to finished unit to payroll, one ledger.
Cost accounting posts as materials are consumed, and shop-floor payroll runs from the same production data, so unit cost and payroll expense agree.
Inventory + Accounting
Consumed materials post to work in progress, then to finished goods, so unit cost is live for every run and quoting is based on real numbers.
No more cost post-mortems from build sheets.
BOM + Inventory
Component shortages are flagged before a run starts.
No more machines stopped halfway.
Payroll + Accounting
Operator hours post to the build they were worked on.
No more estimated labour per unit.
HR + Payroll
Shifts and attendance feed production payroll directly.
No more separate timesheets.
Inventory + Invoicing
Finished goods are tied to customer orders and invoices.
No more finished stock sitting unbilled.

support@encarmo.comCan I link raw materials to finished products?
Yes. Encarmo Inventory links raw materials to finished items, so components are deducted automatically when finished products are built.
Does it track work in progress?
Yes. Materials and labour sit in work in progress on the ledger until the run finishes and goods move to finished stock.
How is labour included in unit cost?
Operator hours from verified work logs post to the build run they were worked on, alongside the materials consumed.
Do I need an ERP implementation project?
No. There are no implementation fees, and most shops are set up within a day.
Do I have to buy Inventory, HR or Payroll?
No. Accounting and invoicing work as a free, standalone system. Add the other modules as production grows.
