Understanding

Manufacturing Documents

Manufacturers create documents at every stage of production. Purchase orders go to suppliers and work orders to the shop floor, inspection reports record quality control, and product and asset labels identify finished goods and equipment.


These documents repeat the same structure for every batch, with new part numbers, quantities and results each time. Your team defines each template once, which makes manufacturing documents a natural fit for automation.
