MFG Pro is the mobile companion for ERPNext Manufacturing & Quality Control. Connect securely to your own ERPNext (Frappe) instance and run the shop floor from your phone — work orders, job cards, BOMs, stock movements and quality inspections, all in real time. Built for production supervisors, machine operators and QA teams who need ERPNext data in hand, not at a desk. MANUFACTURING • Live dashboard: in-process, not-started and completed work orders, active job cards and pending quality inspections at a glance. • Work Orders: filter by status, view item, quantity progress and reservation badges, then drill into full detail. • Work Order actions: transfer material, manufacture, stop/resume, close, and reserve stock — using ERPNext's standard whitelisted methods. • Job Cards: built-in operation timer — start, pause, resume and complete, with cumulative time logs and sub-operation progress. • Stock Entries: create Material Transfer for Manufacture and Manufacture entries and submit them directly. • BOM Viewer: inspect bill-of-materials with phantom, backflush, process-loss, routing and cost details. • Production Plans: review plans and their item lines by status. • Shop Floor: browse plant floors, workstations and downtime entries. QUALITY CONTROL • QC dashboard with pending-inspection badge. • Quality Inspection list and forms with min/max numeric, value, formula and manual readings. • Auto-validation of readings, accept-all, and accept/reject submission with process-loss capture on rejection. • Create new inspections from item and template search. • QC gating: job cards requiring inspection cannot be completed until QC is done. WORKS WITH YOUR ERPNEXT • Compatible with ERPNext v16.15+ and v17. • Sign in with email/password or API key + secret. • Multi-company and department selection, scoped to your user permissions. • Attachments: upload, view and delete files against any document. • Offline-aware: cached dashboard counts and lists when the network drops, with automatic recovery. • Optional Zoho CRM & Subscriptions integration for company, user and plan sync. Note: MFG Pro requires access to a running ERPNext/Frappe server with the Manufacturing and Quality modules. It is a client for your existing ERPNext deployment and is not a standalone ERP.
