Subcontract Manufacturing
Subcontracting is a manufacturing process in which you outsource specific production operations to an external vendor while retaining control over the overall manufacturing process. Subcontract Manufacturing in Zoho ERP provides a dedicated workflow to configure subcontracted products, create and manage Manufacturing Orders for them, and handle the vendor’s service costs seamlessly.
Scenario: Zylker Apparel manufactures shirts in-house but outsources the stitching work to a vendor. Using Subcontract Manufacturing, Zylker Apparel sends the cloth and buttons required for stitching to the vendor, tracks the stitching service charges payable to the vendor, and receives the finished shirts back into stock, all without losing visibility into the production process.
