Unifying Finance and Production: The Missing Link

In the traditional manufacturing model, the 'Production Team' and the 'Finance Team' live in two different worlds. Production cares about units, cycles, and uptime. Finance cares about cash flow, P&L, and receivables.

The problem? These two worlds are fundamentally connected. Every decision on the shop floor has a direct financial consequence, yet most managers only see those consequences 30 days later when the monthly books are closed.

The Net Position Paradox Most ERPs show you your bank balance or your total receivables. But they don't show you your 'Net Position'—your cash on hand plus receivables minus payables and committed production costs. Without this unified view, you might take on a large order that you technically can't afford to manufacture.

Linking Batches to Cash Makoro closes this loop by linking every production batch to its specific raw material cost and its final invoice value. This allows for 'Real-Time Unit Economics'. You can see exactly which products are driving your margins and which are barely breaking even.

Automated Receivables Tracking When a dispatch is marked as completed on the floor, the corresponding receivable should be instantly updated in the finance dashboard. This reduces the Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) and ensures that your finance team isn't chasing invoices that haven't even been delivered yet.

True manufacturing intelligence isn't just about making things; it's about knowing exactly how much money you are making while you're making them.
