Umbrella Manufacturing ERP

Kreon's umbrella manufacturing software is made for a trade with two peculiar habits: most stitching and fitting happens outside your factory, and most of the year's sale happens in the weeks before the rains. It keeps your parts stock, job worker balances and dealer bookings in step, so the season is not lost to shortages.

What makes it different

Built for the way your trade works.

Made for a trade where most stitching and assembly happens outside the factory and most sales happen in a few months. Keeps component stock, job worker balances and dealer bookings in step through the season rush.

How the work flows

A day's work, in order.

Step 01

Book the season

Dealers place pre-season bookings by model, with dispatch dates spread before the monsoon.

Step 02

Buy the parts

Cloth, frames, ribs, handles and covers are purchased against what the bookings need.

Step 03

Cut the cloth

The cutting master cuts panels by design, and wastage is noted against each lot.

Step 04

Send for stitching

Panels and frames go to job workers on challan, and their balance is updated.

Step 05

Receive and check

Finished umbrellas are received, counted and checked, and piece-rate wages are worked out.

Step 06

Pack and dispatch

Pieces are labelled, packed in dozens and cartons, and sent with the LR (lorry receipt) noted.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can I see how much material is lying with each job worker?

Yes. Every issue and receipt goes on a challan, so the balance of cloth, frames and parts with each job worker is always visible. You can settle shortages before paying the wage bill.

How does it handle pre-season bookings?

Dealers book by model and quantity well ahead, with the dispatch split into lots. Production and purchase are planned against these bookings, and you can see what is booked, made, dispatched and pending for each dealer.

Do we keep stock in dozens or in pieces?

Both. Stock is held by model, size, fold, print and colour, and can be seen in dozens and loose pieces. Billing and packing can be done in either unit.

What happens to unsold stock that dealers return after the season?

Returns are entered dealer-wise against the original bills. Good stock goes back into your godown, damaged pieces are kept apart, and the credit note adjusts the dealer's outstanding.

Does Umbrella Manufacturing ERP work on mobile?

Yes. It runs on Web and Android, so people on the floor, in the field or on the road work on the phone while the office works on the full screens.

Can Umbrella Manufacturing ERP be changed to fit how my business works?

Yes. Kreon builds and supports it, so screens, reports, approvals and rules are shaped to your process. Tell us what is different about the way you work and we will show you how it fits before anything is built.
