Features
-
Inventory Management: Tracks stock in real time across raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods. Materials deduct automatically each time you log a production run, so counts stay current without manual updates. Set material reorder points for each item to trigger low-stock alerts before you run out.
-
Bill of Materials and Recipes: Build multi-level recipes and BOMs that include sub-assemblies and nested components, for every product you make. Each recipe can incur labor and overhead in addition to material costs, and Stocksmith shows how many units you can build from the current stock on hand. When a material’s price changes, affected product costs update automatically.
-
Cost of Goods Sold: Calculates cost of goods sold from the actual prices you paid suppliers, not estimates, using weighted average costing. As supplier prices change, each product’s profit margin recalculates automatically. At tax time, you can export year-end COGS and inventory valuation reports for your accountant.
-
Production Planning: Shows you what to make and when, based on open orders and current stock. Automated material availability checks flag shortages before a batch starts and track work in progress at each step of multi-stage builds.
-
Batch and Lot Traceability: Records the materials, quantities, lot numbers, and actual cost behind every production batch. This links each incoming material lot to the finished goods and customer orders it ended up in, providing a full audit trail across the entire chain. From any point, you can trace a lot forward to where it was used or backward to where it came from.
-
Order Management: Import orders automatically from connected sales channels like Etsy, Shopify, and Amazon. Inventory levels are synced across each channel to prevent overselling. Direct-to-consumer, marketplace, and wholesale orders all feed into one view, and profitability can be broken down by individual sales channels or product.
-
Food and Recall Tracking: For consumable and regulated products, Stocksmith records expiration dates alongside supplier lot numbers across the whole production chain. If a recall is needed, you can identify every affected batch and the orders it went into. The audit trail supports compliance for food, cosmetic, and supplement makers.
