Every batch a craft business ships carries a recipe version, a cost, and a trail of ingredient lots, and Craftplan, an open-source ERP, keeps all three connected. Receiving stock against a purchase order records each supplier lot code and optional expiry date, and partial deliveries keep the order open. Customer orders appear on a delivery calendar and can generate invoices. Scheduled items wait on the production board as unbatched cards until Batch All creates one batch with a frozen copy of the recipe. Capacity warnings flag products over their daily limit, and a forecast highlights materials that will run short. Finishing a batch consumes ingredient lots earliest-expiry first, skips any lot on hold or rejected, and snapshots material, labor, and overhead costs. Recipes are versioned, so past costs never change. A blend made in-house can be stocked as its own material, with its actual yield, lot costs, and source lots intact. Allergens and nutrition facts roll up from each material through every recipe, and completed batches print A5 or compact labels with a scannable barcode. The Trace Center follows a supplier lot forward to every customer who received it, or a finished batch back to its sources. Recall mode can place the lot on hold, and the trace exports as CSV or prints for the recall file.

Carbon delivers a unified manufacturing operating system that eliminates the integration tax of running separate ERP, MES, and QMS platforms. The Remix and TypeScript frontend paired with Supabase PostgreSQL backend provides full-stack type safety from database schema to React components, with real-time subscriptions pushing production floor updates to every connected client. The built-in MCP server exposes 1,374 operations across 15 modules through three discovery tools, enabling AI agents to interact with manufacturing data while respecting attribute-based access control. Nested bill of materials with unlimited depth supports complex assemblies, while the MRP engine calculates material requirements across multi-level structures with configurable lead times and safety stock. The configurator handles configure-to-order scenarios with rule-based variant generation. Full lot and serial traceability from receiving through shipping satisfies AS9100, ISO 13485, CFR Part 11, and ITAR compliance requirements. Custom fields extend any entity without schema modification, and the app framework lets integrators build domain-specific modules that plug into the core navigation, permissions, and data layer. Typed API clients for TypeScript, Python, C#, and cURL enable programmatic access to every manufacturing operation. Docker-based local development boots Postgres, Redis, Inngest, and the application stack with a single CLI command.

Roughly 40 integrated business apps forming a full ERP: Odoo's open-source suite runs companies end to end. The Community Edition, licensed LGPL-3.0, ships roughly 40 apps covering CRM, sales, invoicing, basic accounting (journals, chart of accounts, taxes, reconciliation), inventory and warehouse management with multi-step routes, manufacturing with BOMs and work orders, purchasing, project management, timesheets, HR, a website builder, and eCommerce. Each app works standalone, but they share one PostgreSQL database and one data model, so a confirmed sale updates stock, triggers procurement, and posts invoices without integration glue. The modular design means you enable only the apps you need and extend with 40,000+ community modules from the Odoo app store covering nearly any vertical requirement. Inventory supports multi-warehouse stock, reordering rules, and lot and serial tracking with barcode-ready operations; manufacturing ties BOMs, work orders, and work-center routing directly to sales demand and stock levels; and the website builder sells straight from your product catalog with payment provider integrations. You can start with just CRM and invoicing on day one and switch on inventory or eCommerce later - new apps integrate with existing data instantly because the schema is shared. The server is Python with an XML/JavaScript view layer, and because data lives in plain PostgreSQL there is no proprietary format: you can query, back up, migrate, and extend business data directly, with unlimited users and no per-seat licensing - where enterprise ERP pricing is per user per month, headcount here costs nothing.

InvenTree is an inventory management system for electronics manufacturers, makerspaces, and small-to-medium businesses. The hierarchical part categorization system organizes components into unlimited nested categories, while stock items tracked across cascading locations and sub-locations provide instant visibility into current inventory levels, with optional serial number tracking for individual item traceability and acceptance testing. Intelligent BOM management calculates sub-part requirements, validates availability against current stock, supports multi-format BOM upload including KiCad integration, and generates detailed bills of materials with full database enrichment. Build orders consume BOM-allocated stock to produce assembled parts with step-by-step work order tracking, while purchase orders manage supplier relationships with pricing history, lead times, and automatic stock receipt processing. The modern React frontend built with Mantine, TanStack Query, and Zustand provides responsive data tables, tree-select navigation, a preview drawer, and a snippet editor. The extensible plugin system supports 19 mixin types including BarcodeMixin for scanner integration, LabelPrintingMixin for Zebra and Brother printers, AppMixin for custom database tables, and ScheduleMixin for periodic background tasks.

Unplanned equipment downtime and scattered paper work orders cost facility teams hundreds of maintenance hours every year, an operational bottleneck that Atlas CMMS resolves through a centralized, self-hosted computerized maintenance management platform. Maintenance supervisors can create, prioritize, and assign reactive or scheduled work orders to internal technicians and external contractors, attaching multi-step inspection checklists, labor timers, and completion photos. Automated preventive maintenance rules generate recurring tasks on daily, weekly, monthly, or meter-based intervals so critical machinery receives servicing before breakdowns happen. Asset managers can organize hierarchical equipment registers mapped to physical facility locations via Google Maps, tracking downtime history, repair costs, and reliability metrics per machine. Built-in spare parts inventory management monitors stock levels with low-quantity alerts and links directly to purchase order creation and multi-stage vendor approval workflows. Non-technical staff can submit maintenance requests through a simplified service portal, while field technicians update tickets, scan barcodes, and log parts usage from the companion Android and iOS mobile apps. Executive analytics dashboards export compliance rates, mean time to repair, and labor cost breakdowns across 18 supported interface languages.
