Manufacturing accounting software for US manufacturers

What US manufacturers get out of the box

• Job costing — material / labor / overhead

  Every work order tracks budgeted vs actual at the material, labor, and overhead level. Variance reports flag jobs trending over before they finish so you can re-quote or adjust.

• BOM + routing + multi-level assemblies

  Multi-level BOMs (subassemblies under finished goods), routing with standard times, scrap allowances, and substitute components. Material cost rolls up automatically when component prices change.

• WIP inventory accounting

  Raw → WIP → Finished Goods tracked at standard or actual cost. Period-end WIP valuation auto-posts to the right account; variance moves to COGS.

• Section 179 + bonus depreciation

  Capital equipment tagged with Section 179 election or bonus depreciation; depreciation schedules computed per IRS rules. Year-end Form 4562 generation supported.

• R&D credit categorization

  Wages, supplies, and contract research costs flagged as R&D-credit-eligible at the time of entry. Year-end summary report aligns with Form 6765 reporting categories.

• 1099-NEC for outside services

  Toolmakers, fabricators, designers, contract assemblers — track YTD payments per vendor, generate 1099-NEC in January, e-file to IRS.

• Multi-location plants + consolidation

  Per-plant P&L, consolidated group reporting, inter-plant transfers (raw stock allocation, finished goods to distribution). Standard reports run at the plant or group level.

• Avalara sales tax + resale certificates

  Multi-state sales tax for finished goods sold direct; resale certificate exempt sales tracked separately. Per-state liability report for filing.
