MRP That Keeps Production Moving Without Guesswork

Have the right materials at the right time — with material planning, purchasing, and production aligned in real time inside Salesforce, powered by a connected manufacturing ERP.

MRP Flow — Live

Demand Received

Sales orders trigger material requirements

Live

Requirements Calculated

MRP runs against BOM and stock levels

Auto

Purchase Orders Triggered

Procurement aligned with demand

Triggered

Production Runs

Materials ready, no stoppages

Ready
Planning Automated Requirements
Procurement Demand-Driven POs
Inventory No Stockouts or Overstock
Production Uninterrupted Operations

Axolt runs MRP directly inside Salesforce — so material planning, purchasing, and production stay aligned in real time. No guesswork. No delays.

The Root Cause

Why Material Planning
Breaks Down

Production doesn't stop because of lack of demand — it stops because materials aren't there when needed, and purchasing reacts too late to fix it.

In Most Environments

  • Demand is tracked in one system
  • Inventory is managed in another
  • Purchasing operates separately
  • Production schedules updated manually

The Impact

  • Stockouts that halt production
  • Excess inventory tying up cash
  • Reactive procurement decisions
  • Constant firefighting across teams

With Axolt, material planning becomes a real-time, connected process inside Salesforce. By the time shortages are visible in legacy systems, production is already delayed. Axolt surfaces gaps before they hit the shop floor, backed by real-time inventory visibility.

Core Capabilities

Everything MRP Needs

01

Automated Material Planning

Generate material requirements instantly from orders and production schedules — no manual calculation required.

  • Generate requirements from orders and schedules
  • Adjust automatically as demand changes
  • Eliminate manual planning effort
Accurate material planning every time
02

Demand-Driven Procurement

Trigger purchase orders automatically when stock falls below requirement, aligned with Axolt purchase order management.

  • Trigger purchase orders automatically
  • Align procurement with production demand
  • Avoid early or late ordering
Smarter purchasing decisions
03

Minimise Stockouts

Use Clear to Build checks to identify shortages before they impact production, not after.

  • Ensure critical materials are always available
  • Identify shortages before they impact production
  • Plan ahead with real-time visibility
No unexpected production delays
04

Reduce Excess Inventory

Align purchases with actual demand using manufacturing inventory management to avoid over-ordering and cash lock-up.

  • Align purchases with actual demand
  • Reduce over-ordering across all materials
  • Optimise inventory levels in real time
Better cash flow and less waste
05

Real-Time Planning Adjustments

Adapt instantly to supply delays or order changes — keeping material plans current with a fully integrated ERP approach.

  • Update material plans as orders change
  • Respond to supply delays in real time
  • Keep production aligned with reality
Faster response to changing conditions
06

BOM-Driven Requirements

Calculate material requirements from structured Bills of Materials so every component dependency is accounted for automatically.

  • Explode multi-level BOMs automatically
  • Account for component lead times
  • Keep requirements in sync with product changes
Complete material coverage, no gaps

Before vs After

Eliminate Delays Between
Demand and Supply

Traditional material planning creates a lag between what production needs and when purchasing acts. Axolt closes that gap in real time.

Traditional Process
1
Demand received — logged manually or exported
2
Planning run in a separate MRP or ERP tool
3
Purchasing notified via email or spreadsheet
4
Materials ordered — often late or over-stocked
5
Production waits — or firefighting begins
Axolt on Salesforce
1
Sales orders automatically trigger material requirements
2
MRP calculates needs against live stock and BOMs
3
Purchase orders generated and routed automatically
4
Inventory updated in real time as materials arrive
5
Production runs on schedule — no stoppages

Connected Operations

MRP Connected
to Your Entire Operation

Axolt doesn't treat MRP as a standalone planning tool. Material planning connects directly to every part of your operation inside Salesforce.

Sales Orders

Orders drive material demand in real time

Production Planning

Schedules aligned with material availability

Inventory

Live stock levels feed every MRP run

Purchasing

POs generated automatically from requirements

Warehouse

Incoming materials received and tracked instantly

Finance

Material costs tracked in real time

The Business Impact

Stop Firefighting.
Start Planning with Confidence.

Most manufacturers operate reactively — chasing shortages, expediting orders, adjusting schedules last minute. Axolt moves you to proactive planning.

Reduce Stockouts & Delays

Surface material shortages before they reach the shop floor. Keep production running without emergency orders or unplanned stoppages.

Improve Inventory Efficiency

Align stock levels precisely with demand. Eliminate over-ordering and the working capital locked up in materials you don't need yet.

Optimise Procurement Timing

Order at the right time — not too early, not too late. Let demand signals drive purchasing decisions automatically inside Salesforce.
