MORE MX – Fully integrated Manufacturing Management for MYOB Exo

Manufacturing is a process of constant change. It is how well you manage this change in real-time that makes the difference between satisfied customers, profitability, and loss.

Tomorrow is too late to react to production issues. If it is not fixed today, then it has already cost you money.

What are the symptoms of an ineffective Production system?

There are many symptoms of an ineffective production system that can impact how your organisation performs, such as:

Overdue Orders

Unnecessary Product write-offs

Excess Inventory

Not meeting expected targets

Long lead times

Excessive Downtime

Poor Quality Control

Difficulty accommodating rush orders

How does MORE MX improve manufacturing operations and production visibility?

Generate work orders based on demand

Automatically generate backwards-scheduled work orders to fulfil minimum stock, incoming sales orders, or multi-level Bill of Material (BOM) components. Live barcode scanning manages the whole process from start to finish.

A complete fully featured recipe for your production

Build true product routes and BOMs that map to your business. Create anything from single-run custom jobs to hierarchical multi-level BOM assemblies.

Multi-route planning capacity

Automatic colour highlights mean you know what’s really going on at each stage of your busy production environment. Drag and drop functionality makes it easy to prioritise, reschedule, and reorganise your workflows.

Deliver on time, in full, and in spec.

Whether it’s delivering to customers on time or ensuring production orders are completed with the most efficient use of finite resources, MORE MX meets these needs and means that the real-time situation can be managed and balanced to optimum levels.

How MORE MX achieves end-to-end integration with MYOB Exo

1. The integration process synchronises stock codes between both Financial and Project systems. MYOB Exo holds a simple stock code and description; MORE MX holds all the recipe details, routings, costings, and prices.
2. When you enter a Sales Order into MYOB Exo, any manufactured items are automatically generated in MORE MX as work orders. MORE MX also generates its own sub-component work orders as necessary to fulfil demand.
3. When work orders are complete MORE MX transfers products into your Finished Goods stock, and transfers consumed raw materials out, maintaining stock balances at the production level. This information is itemised by Materials, Labour, Overhead and Outwork cost components.
