Production Planning, Scheduling, Shop-Floor Execution and Costing — Implemented, Optimized and Supported by Synesis
Manufacturing is more than creating production orders. It is about knowing what to make, when to make it, whether you have the materials and capacity to make it, what it actually costs to make it, and whether production is performing according to plan.
BEAS Manufacturing for SAP Business One gives manufacturers the production planning, scheduling, execution, costing, shop-floor and operational control capabilities needed to manage complex manufacturing operations — all within the SAP Business One ERP environment. Planning, materials, resources, labor, costing, quality and execution share one database with purchasing, sales, inventory and financials.
At Synesis International, we don't simply install software. We help manufacturers design, implement, optimize, integrate, support and continuously improve their BEAS manufacturing environment — alongside our SAP Business One implementation and support services and the SAP add-ons and extensions that complete the platform.
Many manufacturers have invested heavily in SAP Business One but still struggle with questions such as:
These are not simply ERP questions. They are manufacturing performance questions.
BEAS connects planning, production, materials, resources, labor, costing, quality and operational execution into one integrated manufacturing environment. Synesis makes that technology work for the way your business actually operates.
From Planning Through Completion
Manage production orders with multi-level bills of material, order structures, component requirements, routings, material availability, partial production, material issues, receipts, scrap and rework. Production, operations, finance and management share one view of the factory floor.
Know What to Make, and When
Coordinate demand, forecasts, inventory, purchasing, production requirements and available capacity. Answer what to make, what materials you need and when, what must be purchased, what capacity is available — and what happens when the schedule changes.
Your Operational Blueprint
Define operations, work centers, machines and labor resources with setup, run, queue and move times, alternative resources and production sequences. Synesis makes sure routings reflect how products are actually built, not how someone believes they should be.
A Schedule the Factory Can Execute
See work-center capacity, machine availability, labor requirements and production load. Identify bottlenecks, overloaded resources and schedule conflicts, compare planned against available capacity, and schedule forward or backward from the delivery date.
Practical Tools for the Production Floor
Release production orders and report operations, labor, machine time, material consumption, quantities, scrap and rework as work happens. Operation status and production progress are visible the moment they are recorded.
Know What Products Really Cost
Analyze material, labor, machine, setup and overhead costs with pre-calculation and post-calculation, standard versus actual, scrap, rework and work-in-process costs — with WIP and inventory postings flowing to SAP Business One financials.
Assumptions Versus Facts
Standard costs are assumptions; actual results are facts. Identify material, labor, machine, routing, scrap and cost variances between planned and actual performance, and trace each one back to the operation that caused it.
Quality Built Into Production
Quality cannot be separated from production. Support quality plans, inspection requirements, in-process inspections, non-conformance, scrap, rework and traceability — and connect to Synesis QMS for CAPA, audits and supplier quality.
Materials Ready When Production Is
An integrated flow from sales demand to planning, material requirements, purchasing, inventory, production and finished goods, with material availability checks before orders are released to the floor.
Know Where Every Order Stands
Track open production orders, progress, materials consumed, remaining operations, production value, WIP exposure and late orders — so operations and finance see the same number.
Turn Data Into Decisions
Dashboards for open and late work orders, on-time production, schedule adherence, efficiency, capacity utilization, work-center load, material shortages, WIP value, scrap cost, labor and routing variance, and throughput.
EDI for Automotive Suppliers
Blanket orders, delivery schedules, JIT call-offs, cumulative quantities, dispatch and packaging for automotive suppliers, with an integrated converter for VDA, Odette, EDIFACT and ANSI X.12 messages.
BEAS supports the business processes manufacturers actually run — and a single company can mix them.
Forecasts and sales orders drive MRP, which releases purchase and work orders against stock targets.
Work orders created directly from the sales order or through MRP, with stocked sub-assemblies and customer-specific finished goods.
Engineering at the quotation step, pre-calculation of cost and price, and work orders generated from the calculation.
Product configuration on the quotation builds the structure, the price and the work order for each variant.
Customer delivery schedules and supplier call-offs exchanged by EDI feed MRP and production directly.
Automotive suppliers live on EDI. BEAS SCM manages blanket orders by customer, item, stock and external keys; cumulative requirement and shipment quantities with backlog; call-offs and deliveries with engineering change and Kanban information; three-step dispatch (proposal, pick-and-pack, load) with labels, collective delivery notes and packaging structures; and self-billing invoices. The integrated converter maps partner-specific guidelines and supports the automotive message standards your customers require.

Together, these technologies create a manufacturing platform tailored to your operating model.
Modern manufacturers rarely run a single application. We connect BEAS and SAP Business One with the systems around them using the SAP Business One Service Layer, APIs and SQL-based integrations.
An ERP is only as useful as the information you can get out of it. We combine manufacturing knowledge with deep SAP Business One, HANA and SQL Server expertise.
Manufacturers shouldn't need a spreadsheet for every question their ERP should be able to answer.
BEAS implementation should not be treated as an IT installation project. It is an opportunity to improve the entire manufacturing value chain:
The next generation of manufacturing management combines ERP data, operational data, automation, analytics and AI. BEAS offers direct AI integration as a standard part of the current solution, and Synesis brings the AI and automation expertise to put it to work:
AI is only as useful as the business data and processes behind it.
That is why the first step is often getting the ERP and manufacturing processes right — and Synesis has the experienced staff to guide, design and implement the next steps in manufacturing technology.
We understand manufacturing processes — not just ERP software. Routings, capacity, shop-floor reporting and costing are the language we work in.
We know the SAP Business One platform and how BEAS extends it. Synesis team members have authored articles and books on BEAS best practices.
Functional manufacturing expertise combined with HANA, SQL, reporting, integration, automation and software development capabilities.
Solutions manufacturing teams can actually use, delivered by people with in-depth implementation experience from around the world.
We don't stop at go-live. We keep improving your systems and processes and work as a true long-term partner.
Manufacturing systems drive revenue, margin, working capital and customer service. Our people bring experience from the C-suite to the front line and keep those outcomes in view.
A structured review of your SAP Business One and BEAS environment across eight areas:
| Processes | How work actually flows through the organization |
| Master Data | BOMs, routings, resources, work centers, lead times and standards |
| Planning | MRP, demand, supply, capacity and scheduling |
| Production | Orders, execution, labor, materials, scrap and completion |
| Costing | Standard costs, actual costs and manufacturing variances |
| Technology | BEAS, SAP Business One, B1UP, SQL, integrations and reporting |
| Management Info | KPIs, dashboards, exceptions and decision support |
| User Adoption | How effectively the system is being used |
The result is a prioritized roadmap of improvement opportunities. You may not need a new ERP system — you may need to get more from the one you already own.
Technology should make manufacturing more visible, more predictable and more controllable.
BEAS Manufacturing is a production solution that runs inside SAP Business One. It adds production planning and MRP, multi-level bills of material, routings and work centers, capacity planning and scheduling, shop-floor execution, production costing, variance analysis, manufacturing quality and work-in-process visibility to the SAP Business One ERP.
Standard SAP Business One production covers bills of material, production orders and basic MRP. BEAS extends it with routings and operations, work centers and resources, capacity planning with forward and backward scheduling, shop-floor time and quantity reporting, standard-versus-actual costing with WIP accounting, and support for make-to-stock, make-to-order, engineer-to-order, configure-to-order and automotive supply-chain processes.
