From raw material to dispatched order — one thread of truth.
Acacia connects procurement, the production floor, and the sales ledger so every unit you make is costed, traceable, and ready to sell the moment it is finished.
The chaos you know
When production and the back office run on different systems, the truth lives in nobody's hands.
Recipes and costs that drift
BOMs live in a spreadsheet that is always one version behind. Nobody can say what a finished unit truly costs once material prices move.
WIP you cannot see
Work is on the floor somewhere between raw material and finished goods, but the system only knows the two ends — never what is actually in progress right now.
Material shortfalls discovered too late
A run starts, then halts halfway because an ingredient ran out. Procurement reacts to stockouts instead of being driven by the production plan.
No trace from ingredient to invoice
When a quality issue surfaces, tracking which batches of which inputs went into which finished goods — and which customers got them — turns into a frantic paper chase.
How Acacia runs production, day to day
Five connected workflows carry a product from recipe to dispatched, costed, traceable order.
BOM & recipe definition
Define bills of materials and recipes with yields, sub-assemblies, and wastage. Standard costs roll up automatically and update as input prices move, so the cost of every finished unit is always current.
Step 01
BOM & recipe definition
- BOMs & recipes
- Automatic cost roll-up
- Yield & wastage
Work orders & planning
Turn demand into work orders. Acacia checks material availability against the plan and drives procurement before a run starts — so production is never halted by an ingredient that ran out.
Step 02
Work orders & planning
- Demand-driven work orders
- Material availability check
- Procurement triggers
Production & WIP
Track work in progress stage by stage as materials are consumed and output is recorded. You see exactly what is on the floor and what it is costing, in real time, not at month end.
Step 03
Production & WIP
- Stage-by-stage WIP
- Material consumption
- Live production cost
Quality & batch traceability
Run quality checks at the gates that matter and link every input batch to the finished-goods batch it became. From any finished unit you can trace back to ingredients — and forward to the customers who received it.
Step 04
Quality & batch traceability
- Quality checkpoints
- Ingredient-to-finished trace
- Forward & backward recall
Finished goods to sale
Completed batches flow straight into sellable stock. Orders, FEFO allocation, KRA eTIMS invoicing, and collections run on the same platform, so what you make is ready to sell and bill the moment it is done.
Step 05
Finished goods to sale
- Auto into sellable stock
- FEFO & eTIMS
- Production-to-cash
Built for makers, not just movers
BOM & recipe management
Multi-level bills of materials and recipes with yields, sub-assemblies, wastage, and automatic standard-cost roll-up.
Work orders
Convert demand into scheduled work orders with material reservations and clear status from release to completion.
WIP visibility
Real-time work-in-progress by stage, with materials consumed and cost accrued as production happens.
Raw-material procurement
Procurement driven by the production plan, so inputs arrive before a run needs them instead of after it stalls.
Batch traceability
Link every input batch to the finished-goods batch it became, for full forward-and-backward traceability and fast recalls.
Quality checks
Configurable quality checkpoints across the production cycle, with exceptions logged and held before goods ship.
Three ways to run it on Acacia
Run production on Acacia ERP, extend your current ERP with Acacia Connect, or compose your own blend with Acacia Compose.
