Furniture Manufacturing Case Stories

We needed software for a furniture store and production that would allow us to take stock of materials, and produce goods according to bills of materials with an automatic description of those. Kladana is capable of all the features mentioned above, so that’s why we chose it.

Also, we use Kladana for our online store to manage stock. In the offline store, we use Kladana for order management. It goes like this: a salesperson takes an order for household appliances in the store, and this order is automatically placed in Kladana and then sent to a supplier. Later we receive the invoice, record it & change the order status.

I was looking for a cloud-based solution to manage inventory and production. I started testing Kladana more for fun, but digitization quickly showed us its benefits.

We realized that it was advantageous for us to produce expensive products rather than mass-produced ones. Our stores, as well as our advertising campaign, changed. Retail outlets turned into showrooms. All of this allowed us to become leaders in the premium segment. Also, Kladana stopped the theft in our company.

FAQ

Furniture Catalogue

Open the product card → click on +Variant → indicate the attribute (material). You may add other attributes such as colour, or dimensions.

Yes. Create a product card for a sofa with different variants (indicate colour combinations). After you make a BOM for a sofa, you may start a production order. Using the Variance column, you can choose the necessary colours.

You can use bundles. Go to Inventory → Products and Services → +Bundle → +Item → add all products you need to sell in this very bundle.

Yes. When you create a product card for a finished product, go to Product Barcodes → generate, or add a barcode. Then, when you complete a production order, go to Print → Thermal label → choose prices & quantity → now you can save and print a pdf file.

Production Execution

Yes, you can. Create separate BOMs & production orders for furniture parts & for the finished goods.

You can produce goods & manage various production processes in various locations, including subcontractors’ facilities. The entire flow is explained in our YouTube video

You should create product cards for scrap & by‑products, for example, sawdust, or small wooden planks. If you get some during a production order, you can record how much scrap you got. The detailed info can be found in our 7‑minute video

We recommend that you indicate the reorder point for wood stain in advance — 20 liters, for instance. When you have only 20 liters left, you’ll get a notification. You may also set particular workflows for automatic purchase orders.

Yes. When you create a production order, you can tick the point “Allocate order to committed stock” for raw materials, and “Allocate order to awaiting stock” for finished goods. More info about hard reservation is available on our YouTube video.

Open a necessary sales order → Add Related → Stock Replenishment → choose “Production Order” in the “Fill up stock by” column. Then, when you complete a production order, return to the sales order → Add Related → Shipment. Also, you can link orders and operations manually. Open an order → Related transactions → Link Transaction.

Costs & Sales

Firstly, open a BOM, and specify labour costs for production operations. Secondly, assign certain production operations to your employees. Whenever they complete an operation, the labour cost is recorded. Thirdly, you can go to Production → Labour Costs. Using filters (calendar & employee name) see all the money each of them earned.

You can use Online Order App — it enables you to make several public catalogues with different products & prices. Say, your wholesale customers will purchase a batch of chairs at the price ₹380/piece, and retail clients — ₹900/piece.
