Vicinity (Formula Manufacturing)

• Food and beverage manufacturers that work from formulas

  Sold to processors whose raw materials are measured by weight or volume, whose formulas change during production and who use batch tickets rather than work orders.

• Manufacturers already on QuickBooks Online or Microsoft Dynamics

  The software adds manufacturing to those accounting systems, so it suits firms that want to keep them.

• Bakery, flavouring, meat, dairy and confectionery producers

  The vendor's industry list for food includes flavourings, meat, dairy, bakery, sugar and confectionery products, nutraceuticals and consumer packaged goods.

Less suited to: Restaurants and food service operators. The product is aimed at formula-based manufacturers in the food, chemical and brewing industries.

• Recipe and formula management

  Keeps recipes in a central database with versions and searchable criteria.

• Nutritional analysis

  Calculates nutrition for recipes and intermediates from stored raw-material values, and can draw on the USDA database or Esha's Genesis program.

• Formula costing

  Updates raw-material cost from the latest purchasing information so recipe cost stays current.

• Configurable batch tickets

  Prints batch tickets in a layout the production team defines, and lets one batch be modified without changing the master formula.

• Production scheduling

  Shows the production schedule in a calendar with drag and drop, and aggregates demand by recipe so larger batches can be scheduled.

• Quality control and certificates of analysis

  Tracks QC test results by batch, raw material or finished good, stores vendor certificates of analysis and generates CoAs for lots.

• Supplier management

  Ties purchasing, receiving, quality and price information together to evaluate vendors, with blanket purchase orders and lead-time tracking.

• Barcode data collection

  Barcode options for receiving ingredients, recording usage and production, and shipping customer orders.

• Batch-level production costing

  Calculates material, labour, packaging and overhead cost per batch and reports actual cost by product, formula or facility.

• Reporting and query tool

  Standard reports are built in Crystal Reports or Microsoft SSRS and can be modified; VicinityView queries any data in the system without writing a report.
