Finance & Accounting for Manufacturing
Manufacturing financial operations, simplified
Track production costs, inventory valuation, and overhead allocation in one AI-native finance platform built for discrete, process, and contract manufacturers.

Built for manufacturing finance teams
Inventory valuation & COGS
Automate FIFO, LIFO, and weighted-average inventory costing. Track raw materials, WIP, and finished goods in real time with automated journal entries and variance detection.
Job & work order costing
Capture direct labor, machine time, and overhead at the job level. Compare estimated vs. actual costs per work order, identify variances, and close jobs with automated cost absorption.
Overhead allocation
Distribute manufacturing overhead by machine hours, labor hours, or units produced. Automate allocation journals and maintain audit trails from cost pool to production line.
Multi-entity accounting for manufacturers
Plant & subsidiary consolidation
Consolidate financials across plants, warehouses, and sales subsidiaries. Automate intercompany eliminations for internal transfers and standardize charts of accounts across global operations.
Product-line profitability
Track revenue and costs by product line, SKU, or plant. Allocate shared overhead with flexible drivers to see true margin contribution and optimize pricing and mix decisions.
Automated BOM costing
Roll up material, labor, and overhead costs automatically from bill-of-materials. Update standard costs in bulk and post component variances when actuals diverge from estimates.
Procurement & vendor management
Match purchase orders to receipts and invoices in real time. Track vendor performance by cost, quality, and delivery to optimize sourcing and manage spend commitments.
Regulatory audit trails
Maintain immutable audit trails for every journal, adjustment, and reversal. Support SOX-compliant workflows, role-based access, and automated audit trails for every production and inventory transaction.
Real-time manufacturing finance analytics
Financial control without operational friction
Bring plant operations and finance together with dashboards that show cost per unit, scrap rates, and capacity utilization. Empower CFOs and plant controllers to make faster, data-driven decisions.
KPI dashboards for plant CFOs
Monitor cost per unit, inventory turns, gross margin by product, scrap and rework costs, and OEE in real time. Set thresholds and alerts to surface issues before they impact profitability.
Budget vs. actual by plant & SKU
Compare budgeted and actual performance by plant, product line, or SKU. Adjust forecasts dynamically based on demand trends, material price shifts, and capacity changes.
