Industries

Seven industries. Same method.

ERPNext is a general system. What makes an implementation work is knowing which parts of it your industry actually uses — and which parts to leave switched off.

01

Manufacturing

The pain

You know what you sold. You are less sure what it cost to make. Job cards live on paper, the production plan lives in someone's head, and month-end costing is a reconstruction exercise.

What we set up

Bills of materials including multi-level, work orders, job cards, workstations and operations, production stock entries, and reports that show work order status and BOM stock position.

Usually customised

Shop-floor job card print formats, a production summary report in the format your plant head wants, and occasionally a machine or weighbridge integration.

02

Trading & Distribution

The pain

Stock across several warehouses that never quite matches the physical count, pricing that varies by customer and gets argued about, and GST returns assembled from three different files.

What we set up

Multi-warehouse inventory with batches and serial numbers, price lists and pricing rules, the full quote-to-invoice cycle, purchase cycle with landed cost, and GST registers that feed GSTR-1 directly.

Usually customised

Your own invoice and delivery challan formats, customer-specific rate logic, and sometimes an e-commerce or marketplace sync.

03

Retail

The pain

Counter sales, stock across outlets, and a daily reconciliation that takes an hour longer than it should.

What we set up

POS, item and warehouse setup per outlet, stock transfers between locations, sales invoicing, and daily sales and stock reports.

Usually customised

Receipt formats, loyalty or discount logic, and payment device integration.

04

Services & Projects

The pain

You bill by milestone or by hour, but you find out whether a project made money only after it has ended.

What we set up

Projects and tasks, timesheets, milestone and progress billing, budgets, and cost-versus-progress reporting.

Usually customised

Client-specific invoice formats, approval flows for timesheets, and profitability reports by project or client.

05

Construction & Real Estate

The pain

Material issued to site is hard to trace, subcontractor bills arrive late, and project costs are known only in aggregate.

What we set up

Project-wise costing, material requests and issues against sites, subcontractor purchase cycle, and progress billing.

Usually customised

Site-wise material consumption reports, running account bill formats, and retention and deduction handling.

06

Healthcare

The pain

Patient records, billing and pharmacy stock sitting in three unconnected systems.

What we set up

Patient and appointment records, billing, pharmacy and consumable inventory with batch and expiry tracking, and accounting.

Usually customised

Prescription and bill formats, insurance or TPA workflows, and lab or device integrations.

07

Education

The pain

Admissions in one file, fees in another, and a reconciliation every term.

What we set up

Student records, admissions, fee structures and collection, attendance, and accounting.

Usually customised

Fee receipt formats, payment gateway integration, and parent or student portals.
