A real-time, settlement-free Production Cost (WIP-control) ledger that capitalises material and conversion costs as work happens, variance analytics against a frozen standard, and a new Schedule III (Companies Act) Statement of Profit & Loss.
Finance — Schedule III Statement of Profit & Loss
A new Schedule III (Companies Act) Statement of Profit & Loss is generated directly from posted journal lines:
- Lines grouped by their Schedule III tag, with a keyword fallback for untagged accounts.
- A derived “Changes in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress” line.
- Comparative prior-period figures.
- A printable A4 PDF export.
Production — Work-in-Progress Cost Accounting
Production orders now carry a fully GL-backed Work-in-Progress (WIP) cost ledger that values shop-floor activity in real time, with no month-end settlement step:
- Actual back-flush — material issued to production is capitalised to WIP, and each operation confirmation absorbs labour, overhead and utility cost at the routing rate × actual hours as it happens.
- Balanced finished-goods receipt — when finished goods are received, the accumulated WIP is relieved pro-rata across all cost accounts, and scrap is posted separately.
- WIP reconciliation — a reconciliation report proves that the sum of open-order WIP always ties back to the GL control account.
- Cost on genealogy — batch genealogy now carries unit and total cost for full cost traceability.
Production — Cost Variance Analytics
At order release the planned cost is frozen as a reference standard, enabling variance analysis independent of the ledger:
- Material, labour, overhead and utility variances per production order.
- Material price-versus-usage breakdown.
- Order-level and summary variance views.
