Stock & Manufacturing
Fusion starts with a strong stock management foundation and extends into manufacturing workflows as your operational requirements grow. Manage inventory, components, bills of materials, production jobs, traceability, and finished goods from one platform while maintaining visibility across stock and manufacturing processes.
Why many manufacturing systems fall short
Common Pain Points
- Inventory and production are managed in separate systems
- Material shortages delay production jobs
- Component usage is difficult to track accurately
- Production relies on manual spreadsheets and paperwork
- Batch and serial traceability becomes difficult to maintain
- Limited visibility into production progress and stock availability
Production becomes difficult to control when stock, materials, and manufacturing processes are disconnected.
As operations grow, manual planning, component tracking, and production management create delays, stock inaccuracies, and reporting gaps. Teams spend more time managing exceptions than producing finished goods efficiently.
Fusion connects stock control, material planning, manufacturing jobs, and production visibility in one connected platform.
How Fusion Stock & Manufacturing supports real manufacturing workflows
Plan materials and production requirements
Ensure the right materials are available before production starts.
Fusion combines stock visibility, bills of materials, and material planning to help teams understand component requirements, identify shortages, and plan production more effectively.
How it helps
- Define bills of materials for finished goods
- Manage components and sub-assemblies
- View material requirements and stock availability
- Create purchase orders from stock shortfalls
Outcome: Better production planning with fewer material shortages.
Convert components into finished goods
Manage production jobs with full stock integration.
Manufacturing jobs use bill of materials data to guide production while maintaining accurate stock movement. Components are consumed and finished goods are added back into inventory as jobs are completed.
How it helps
- Create manufacturing jobs for stock or customer demand
- Auto-populate components from bills of materials
- Adjust quantities for specific production runs
- Automatically update stock on completion
Outcome: Greater control over production and inventory accuracy.
Track production progress and traceability
Maintain visibility throughout the manufacturing process.
Fusion supports batch and serial tracking, production status management, factory floor tracking, and reporting to help teams monitor production activity and maintain traceability.
How it helps
- Allocate batch and serial numbers
- Track production job progress
- Monitor factory floor activity and time spent
- Review manufacturing and stock reporting
Outcome: Improved traceability, accountability, and production visibility.

From inventory management to production control
Some businesses only need stock visibility and inventory control. Others require warehouse operations or manufacturing workflows built on the same stock foundation.
Fusion allows you to start with the functionality you need today and expand as operational requirements evolve.
What are you looking for?
Stock Management
Best for inventory control, stock visibility, transfers, barcode scanning, and reorder management
Stock + Warehouse Management
Best for receiving, picking, dispatch, warehouse operations, and fulfilment workflows
Stock + Manufacturing
Best for assemblies, bills of materials, production jobs, material planning, and finished goods management
All options share the same inventory foundation, making it easier to add operational capabilities without replacing existing processes.
Reporting and Production Visibility
