## Short answer

Beas Manufacturing from Boyum IT Solutions is a native Business One add-on that adds production planning, capacity scheduling, quality control and shop floor control for discrete and process manufacturers. It extends the standard production orders and bills of materials in Business One rather than replacing them.

## Category

MES and production planning

## Integration

**Method:** Native SAP Business One add-on

**Detail:** Beas runs inside Business One and shares its database, items, warehouses and production orders. Routings, work centres and shop floor data collection are added on top of the standard objects.

**Method:** Shop floor terminals and data collection

**Detail:** Operators report time, quantities and scrap through Beas screens or terminals, and postings update Business One production orders and inventory.

## Data Flows

**From:** SAP Business One

**To:** Beas

**Data:** Items, BOMs, warehouses and sales orders

**Trigger:** Shared database, immediate

**From:** Beas

**To:** SAP Business One

**Data:** Production orders with routing operations

**Trigger:** Order created and released

**From:** Shop floor

**To:** Beas

**Data:** Operation times, quantities, scrap

**Trigger:** Operator reports on terminal

**From:** Beas

**To:** SAP Business One

**Data:** Goods issues, receipts and cost postings

**Trigger:** Reporting and order close

**From:** Beas

**To:** SAP Business One

**Data:** Inspection results and quality status

**Trigger:** Quality check completed

## Setup

### Document the current process

**Detail:** Map how you plan, release, report and cost production today, including outside processing.

### Install and licence Beas

**Detail:** Install the add-on with a Boyum partner on a test company first, matching your Business One version and database.

### Define work centres and routings

**Detail:** Create work centres, capacities, calendars and operations with realistic setup and run times.

### Review BOMs and items

**Detail:** Clean BOM levels, yields, scrap factors and issue methods before planning relies on them.

### Configure quality control

**Detail:** Set inspection plans, characteristics and triggers where quality checks are needed.

### Set up shop floor reporting

**Detail:** Configure terminals, operator logins and the booking rules for time and quantity.

### Run parallel and cut over

**Detail:** Run a pilot product family and compare costs and stock before widening scope.

## Pitfalls

- Unrealistic routing times make the capacity schedule meaningless, so operators ignore it.
- BOMs with wrong issue methods (backflush versus manual) cause negative stock or missing issues.
- Operators skipping bookings produce missing labour cost and false schedule progress.
- Customisations to standard production orders in Business One can conflict with Beas and need retesting.
- Upgrading Business One requires a matching Beas version, so plan the combined upgrade.
- Lot and serial tracking must be configured consistently across Beas operations and inventory.

## Ai Layer

### Schedule and delay explanations

**Description:** A private assistant reads production orders, operations and reports and explains why an order is late (capacity, material, rework) in plain language.

### Cost variance review

**Description:** Compares standard and actual time and material per order and highlights outliers for a cost accountant.

### Routing data cleanup

**Description:** Compares planned and reported operation times and suggests routing updates for a planner to approve.

### Shop floor questions

**Description:** Supervisors ask what is running, what is waiting for material and what scrap occurred, read only.

## Alternatives

- CompuTec ProcessForce, another Business One manufacturing add-on, which is stronger on process manufacturing in some cases.
- The standard Business One production module with MRP, if routing and capacity planning are not needed.
- A separate MES with a Business One connector for complex plants.

## Faq

### Does Beas replace Business One production?

**Answer:** No. It is a native add-on that extends standard production orders and BOMs with routings, scheduling, quality and shop floor control, using the same database and items.

### Is it only for discrete manufacturers?

**Answer:** Boyum positions it for discrete and process manufacturers. Heavy process needs such as formulas and co products should be tested against your requirements in a demo.

### Can it run on-prem?

**Answer:** As an add-on to Business One, it follows your Business One deployment, including on-prem installations with SQL Server or HANA. Confirm your version and database support with Boyum.

### How would AI help a Beas shop?

**Answer:** A private assistant can read Business One and Beas tables read only to explain delays and cost variances. Changes to routings or schedules are proposed for a planner to approve.
