Manufacturing Information Systems, Inc. (MISys) has been developing cutting-edge manufacturing software for over 20 years. MISys brings industrial-strength manufacturing capabilities to QuickBooks.

MISys SBM was designed to be a sensible alternative to cumbersome and expensive manufacturing management systems. It performs the advanced functions small- to medium-sized manufacturing firms need, yet its familiar interface makes MISys SBM ideal for the non-technical user. MISys SBM is based on the proven functionality of the MISys SAE system, originally released in 1982 and used by over 7,000 manufacturing firms in 48 countries.

MISys SBM is modular, so you purchase only the functionality you need today. Start with Basic Manufacturing, then add Advanced Purchasing, Advanced Production, Material Requirements Planning, Bin Tracking, Serial/Lot Tracking and Bar Coding as your company grows.

Start with Basic Manufacturing, which features support for unlimited inventory locations, multi-level bills of material, revision tracking, job costing, production work orders, stock check MRP and graphical purchasing and production schedules. MISys SBM helps you perform physical inventory counts with support for inventory cycle counts and built in inventory worksheets. All inventory transactions feed a manufacturing sub-ledger to QuickBooks that automatically keeps your company financial statements updated with the accounting implications of every production operation.

The Advanced Purchasing module takes advantage of automatic PO generation, multi-tiered vendor pricing, vendor performance tracking, and automated recent cost tracking. Purchase Orders created in MISys SBM automatically create bill payments in QuickBooks!

Then, for a real dose of power and flexibility, add the Material Requirements Planning module for true, time-phased Master Production Scheduling (MPS) and MRP. With the ability to create a comprehensive Master Production Schedule for every item and assembly, MISys SBM knows what you’ll need and when you need it. There’s no need to worry about purchasing the wrong items, or the right items at the wrong time because MISys SBM will automatically schedule and create Purchase Orders on command. Production Work Orders and customized Job Orders are generated with just a few clicks! If a customer wants to reschedule an order, or a vendor fails to deliver on time, MISys SBM instantly shows you the effects and suggests corrective actions. MISys SBM can even create a sales forecast based on historical sales in QuickBooks. By applying the forecast to the MPS, MISys SBM allows you to anticipate your material requirements before your customers even place their orders! MISys also has an Available to Promise “ATP” function which will attempt to schedule the production of a specified item, then walk it ahead day by day until sufficient material is found to successfully complete the desired production.

For manufacturers who produce variants of standard products, and for custom job shops, add the Advanced Production module to create Manufacturing Orders. Produce super-accurate sales quotations and analyze your production efficiencies by tracking on-the-fly variations to material, scrap, labor, and special or non-stock items. As you work, MISys SBM will be updating the profitability of each job.

If your company has more complex inventory control needs, add the optional Bin Tracking module to track your inventory across unlimited sub locations or bins.

MISys has full multi-currency support which allows you to create, process, and track purchase orders in multiple currencies.

Bar-coding in MISys includes both hardware and software to accomplish physical inventory, stock transfers, PO receipts and print bar codes for items or bins in standard formats.

Getting started with MISys SBM is a cinch, too. From the day you purchase the software, we’ll pair you with your own personal technical support specialist, with whom you’ll have free unlimited telephone access while you are first setting up your system. Your specialist will ensure that you get up and running smoothly, and that you are able to take full advantage of all the features built into the software. After a month, you want to continue working with your specialist, or select from a number of other support options which are available.

MISys University hosts regularly scheduled training workshops. Listen, watch, and learn from the experts all about MISys SBM from the comfort of your office or home – all you need is a computer, a telephone, and a broadband Internet connection.

MISys Professional Consultants are available to assist with the design and implementation of a fully integrated QuickBooks/MISys SBM business management system. Our Free Sure Start Program gets you up and running in under 60 days.
