Inventory Control
E2 MFG handles inventory and purchasing of raw materials or finished goods in a snap. Each part or material number can be stored with alpha, numeric, or special characters. In addition, each inventoried item can be stored in multiple bin or lot locations. When inventoried items are allocated to a job or finished goods are sold from inventory, the E2 Shop System stores the history of where the raw materials or finished parts were pulled from. This eliminates the guesswork when quality control becomes an issue.

E2 provides lot and serial tracking for both raw materials and finished goods. Serial numbers can be populated throughout the system. Lot traceability can be added at any point in the system as well.
