Real-Time Posting
Per-Operation or Backflush
Operators report completion at every routing operation, or backflush at work order completion. Either way, ERP inventory and work order percent-complete update live.
Real-Time Posting, Scrap Capture, Labor Tracking — On the Operator's Tablet
Synesis MES Production Reporting eliminates the end-of-shift data entry that leaves plant leadership blind for hours at a time. Operators report completed quantities, scrap, and labor hours against work orders in real time on touch-friendly shop-floor terminals. The plant manager sees actual progress live. The ERP gets accurate inventory updates immediately. The KPIs you act on are the KPIs that are happening right now.
Production posting can be on a per-operation basis (every step) or on completion (backflush). Scrap is captured with reason codes that drive first-pass yield and root-cause analysis. Labor is captured with start/stop or auto-allocation. Ad-hoc postings handle non-work-order activities like setup, training, indirect labor, and maintenance.

Reason-Coded
Every scrap or rework event captured with reason code, operator, and machine. Drives first-pass yield computation and root-cause analysis in Synesis QMS.
Direct & Indirect
Direct labor against work orders. Indirect activities (setup, teardown, training, meetings, idle). Multi-operator support for crew jobs. Earned-hours reporting.
Touch + Barcode
Touch-screen terminals with large buttons, barcode scanning for work orders and parts, and minimal data entry. Designed for gloves, safety glasses, and busy shop floors.
Non-Work-Order Activities
Capture setup time, training, meetings, indirect labor, and small tooling production without forcing it through a work order.
Plant Floor Coverage
Run on tablets, panel PCs, fixed workstations, or operator phones. No per-station software license cost. Same UX everywhere.
Live Inventory Updates
Production posting flows to ERP (SAP Business One, S/4HANA, Syspro, Microsoft Dynamics) for inventory updates, shipment release, and order fulfillment in real time.
Who, What, When
Every posting logged with operator, timestamp, work order, operation, station, and quantity. Adjustments require supervisor approval and reason.
Plant managers see the actual state of production at any moment, not yesterday's end-of-shift summary.
Real-time backflush keeps ERP inventory accurate, so purchasing knows what to buy and shipping knows what's available.
Labor productivity at operator, shift, and work center level. Variance to standard surfaces immediately.
Scrap with reason codes feeds Synesis QMS first-pass yield analysis. Root cause investigated before the pattern repeats.
