Stop renting Katana. Own the system behind every batch you make.

Each open order carries the date you promised the customer, what it has cost so far and whether anything has happened to it lately.

• check Orders past the promised date, listed with how many days behind
• check Fixed-price work warned once its cost passes 80% of the quote
• check Orders with no labour or material booked for a full week
• check A printed job sheet for the bench, carrying your own logo

Every order's recipe is checked against stock on hand and stock on order, measured against the date it is due.

• check Each order's missing inputs, and the purchase order that should arrive to cover them
• check Materials under their reorder level, shown beside the supplier you usually buy from
• check Overdue purchase orders, with the manufacturing orders each one is delaying
• check Which suppliers' late deliveries keep pushing your own dates out

Ingredients issued, hours worked and outside work received, compared with what was invoiced, so the price list is built on facts.

• check Work in progress any day: cost in unfinished orders not yet on an invoice
• check Completed orders nobody has billed, flagged until they are
• check Rates locked onto each hour and each issue, so a new rate leaves running orders alone
• check Margin per customer, to price the next order with confidence

Materials, recipes, suppliers, customers and order history live in a database your business controls, readable by any tool you choose.

• check Your customers, suppliers and items carried across, test run first
• check Heat numbers recorded against material issues, not a monthly extra
• check Quotes, invoices and cost reports with your branding
• check A new field, check or report added by describing it in a sentence
