Inventory & Production Management

Hey Moday.com Community!

We’re an 8-person coffee roasting company and we’re a few days into our free trial. For so many reasons, traditional ERPs aren’t the best tool for us to use for our production. It seems Monday is a good fit for us, but we’re running into a wall when it comes to setting up an inventory and production workflow. We’ve read the knowledge base and reached out to support, but it seems we need help!

The basic architecture of our production workflow goes something like:

Sales team issues a Production Order

  • Order may have several Products
  • Products may have several Components
    Production team receives Production Order and creates a Roast Log item
  • Each Component needs its own Roast Log item

We need our Roast Log board to interact with our Green Coffee Inventory board.

  • Each Component is an item in Green Coffee Inventory
  • Each Component has a current inventory (number)
  • We need Component inventory to change by way of two actions:
  1. Roast Log entry (number of coffee kgs roasted will draw down current inventory)
  2. Restock (number of coffee kgs purchased will increase current inventory)

Right now we have Restock as a subitem on each item in Green Coffee Inventory Component, since we will Restock these from time to time. We can’t figure out how to mirror subitems, for one thing. Our Current Inventory (number) is a column in Green Coffee Inventory.

We also need some help setting up our Dashboards for sales & production teams.

Please let us know if you can help!

Thanks so much.
