BOPP Tape Manufacturing ERP: From Log Rolls to Dispatch

A production order is more than a finished-goods quantity. A BOPP tape converter needs to know the available film and adhesive stock, what has been allocated to coating or printing, and which log rolls have already moved to slitting.

Track roll identity, size, material, weight and current stage consistently. A single roll may change from work in progress to finished stock, but its production history should remain traceable.

Capture machine plans and actual quantities against the same production job. Use explicit units for kilograms, rolls and boxes so one department cannot accidentally interpret another department's number as a different unit.

Record production holds and exceptions, including unavailable material, missing cylinder approvals and quality checks. A board that shows the cause of a delay is more useful than one that simply says pending.

Create dispatch requests from approved sales orders, check available finished stock, and scan the relevant rolls or boxes at the time of loading. The dispatch entry should update stock and keep a traceable link to the original production job.

Use customer-ready documents and notifications only after their corresponding stock and approval checks pass. This reduces the risk of sending a delivery confirmation for stock that was never dispatched.

List your actual machines, material units, job types, production approvals, and reports. Decide which data operators can enter on the shop floor and which actions need a supervisor's approval.
