[01] HIGHLIGHTS

Built to run your production

Stop reconciling reports from different tools. Give production, sales and finance the same numbers.

Auto-BOM & Waste

Know what each batch should use, and what it actually used

Auto-generated bills of materials draw raw material against every production run, so you see usage and waste per batch while it happens. Amilma Ice reduced production waste by 31% with auto-BOMs. Recipes live in one place, and costs follow them.

One System

Distribution, sales force and stock in one place

Amilma used several systems for sales force, distribution and stock, and reports took a long time to sync before anyone could trust them. In ERPNext, distribution reports, sales force and stock sit under one head and are easy to read. When the owner asks where waste or stock loss showed up, the answer is in the system.

Batch & expiry tracking

Track batches from raw material receipt to dispatch, with manufacturing and expiry dates, so you can answer a customer or auditor from one record.

Recipe and BOM costing

Multi-level bills of materials with costs at every level, so you see real cost per batch instead of a monthly estimate.

Stock across locations

Warehouse-wise stock with batches and serial numbers, and inter-branch transfers.

Zero per-user fees

Your plant, store and accounts teams all work in one system. Pricing is a flat tier, not a cost per login.

Workflows that match your plant

Add custom fields and change workflows to match how your production actually runs.

Who this worked for

Amilma Ice

Amilma's distribution, sales force and stock reports sat in separate tools and took a long time to reconcile. They now sit in one system, and production waste fell 31% with auto-BOMs.

Everything You Need To Know About Onebook For Food Manufacturers

01.

I'm on Tally and Excel. Will switching disrupt my finance team?

Not if it is planned well. We run both systems in parallel, typically 4 to 8 weeks, so your team can check figures before cutting over. Your accountant keeps Tally through the two-way sync.

02.

What does Onebook track for a food manufacturer?

Recipes and bills of materials with auto-generated usage, batches with manufacturing and expiry dates, stock across locations, and sales and distribution reports in one system.

03.

How long does it take to go live?

It depends on how much we customise. Simple setups go live in 4 to 8 weeks, standard workflows in 6 to 10 weeks, and heavily customised projects in 8 to 12 weeks. We scope the timeline upfront.

04.

How much does Onebook cost?

Implementation starts from ₹2,00,000, depending on modules and customisation. Hosting is ₹4,000 a month on Micro and ₹12,000 a month on Growth, and isolated infrastructure is available on Enterprise. There is no per-user fee.

05.

Why don't you charge per user like Zoho or SAP?

Per-user pricing makes companies limit access, so key people end up on spreadsheets. Onebook charges a flat subscription, so every operator, storekeeper and accountant can have a login.

06.

Can we keep using Tally for accounting?

Yes. Two-way Tally sync lets your accountant stay in Tally while operations runs on Onebook, with no double entry.

07.

Is my data secure on an open-source platform?

Yes. Open source means the code is auditable, not that your data is public. Onebook runs on managed Azure infrastructure in the India region with encrypted backups and role-based access, backed by SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA compliance. Isolated infrastructure is available on Enterprise.

08.

What if it doesn't work for us?

You get a free consultation and a lifetime warranty. If Onebook does not fit after implementation, we help you migrate back, with no lock-in and no penalties.
