Manufacturing Execution System

The MES is where a garment order becomes physical product. It receives approved work from PLM (styles, BOMs, costing) and drives every step on the factory floor — cutting, sewing, quality control, finished-goods handling, and dispatch — while posting inventory movements and COGS into Finindex (the finance ledger). MES covers four domains:

Production Execution

Production orders and versions, cut plans, mobile floor execution, production lines, work centers, and workers.

Warehouse & Inventory

Logistics and shipments, stock lots and locations, outbound allocation, delivery notes, and reconciliation.

Quality Control

Fabric QC at intake and garment QC at production, with posting that drives stock disposition and GL.

Back to PLM

Styles, bills of materials, and costing — the upstream source of every production order.

Shop-floor flow

A production order travels left-to-right through the factory. Cutting consumes fabric lots, sewing assembles cut bundles into garments, QC gates each handoff, and finished goods flow to the warehouse for outbound dispatch and delivery.
Every posting action in MES (cut output, sewing output, QC post, inbound receipt, outbound dispatch) writes a stock ledger entry and a matching journal entry in Finindex. MES is the system of record for physical movement; Finindex is the system of record for its financial effect.

Where to start

1

Set up the factory

Define work centers, workers, and production lines once. See Production Execution.
2

Run a production order

Create the order from a PLM style, build a cut plan, and prepare mobile execution for the floor.
3

Move and inspect inventory

Receive fabric, run QC, issue lots to cutting, and dispatch finished goods. See Warehouse & Inventory and Quality Control.
