When the Plan Doesn't Match
What's on the Shop Floor
Manufacturing problems rarely happen because teams don't have a plan. They happen because the plan doesn't match what's actually happening in production.
Materials Are Short
Shortages surface too late. Purchasing misses signals until production is already blocked and customer orders are at risk.
Work Orders Are Delayed
Jobs slip without visibility. Operators update spreadsheets after the fact, and supervisors can't see what's truly in progress.
Sales Can't See Reality
Sales teams promise delivery dates without access to real production progress, creating risk for customer commitments.
Warehouse Is Left Waiting
Warehouse teams don't know when finished goods will be ready, creating delays in fulfilment and despatch planning.
Finance Sees Costs Too Late
Finance sees the cost impact of production activity after jobs are already complete, making real-time cost control impossible.
Spreadsheets Fill the Gap
When execution happens outside the ERP, spreadsheets multiply. Data becomes unreliable and visibility breaks down across every team.
Axolt brings manufacturing execution on Salesforce, so production, inventory, sales, warehouse and finance teams work from the same operational data instead of managing shop-floor activity in disconnected spreadsheets or separate systems.
What Is Salesforce MES?
Salesforce MES means managing manufacturing execution processes directly inside Salesforce, enabling complete shop-floor execution inside Salesforce rather than relying on disconnected production systems. — rather than using a disconnected shop-floor system that sits away from CRM, inventory, purchasing and finance.
With Axolt, manufacturers can manage production execution around real operational records — including sales orders, inventory, work orders, BOMs, routing, purchase orders, quality checks, shipments and invoices.
Axolt does not replace specialist machine-control systems, PLCs or equipment-level automation. It connects production execution with Salesforce ERP, inventory, purchasing, quality, fulfilment and finance.
Everything Teams Need to Run Production Inside Salesforce
From work order release through to finished goods and fulfilment — every step managed in Salesforce.
Work Order Execution on Salesforce
Release, track and complete work order execution on Salesforce directly inside Salesforce, connected to customer demand, BOMs, routing, stock and quality.
- Release work orders from demand or planning requirements
- Track planned, in-progress, blocked and completed orders
- Record completed quantities, scrap and rework
- Connect work orders with BOMs and routing steps
- Capture production notes and exception updates
Shop-Floor Visibility for Every Team
Production visibility shouldn't stop with the supervisor. Axolt provides production tracking in Salesforce so sales, warehouse, purchasing and finance teams can access live operational status.
Axolt gives sales, warehouse, purchasing and finance teams live status from Salesforce dashboards.- Live production status by work order
- WIP visibility across production stages
- Delay and exception tracking
- Bottleneck visibility by job, operation or resource
- Salesforce dashboards and reporting
Material Consumption Connected to Inventory
As materials are issued and consumed against work orders, stock records update in Salesforce — keeping production and warehouse teams aligned in real time.
- Issue materials to work orders
- Track component consumption
- Capture scrap, waste and returns
- Support lot and serial traceability
- Receive finished goods into stock
Quality Checks During Production
Quality is part of execution, not a separate process after the job is done. Capture inspections, non-conformance and hold points in context with work orders.
- In-process quality checks
- Inspection status by work order
- Non-conformance capture
- Production hold points and rework visibility
- Traceability from material to finished goods
WIP Visibility and Production Control
Work in progress is where most manufacturers lose visibility. Axolt delivers WIP visibility inside Salesforce so teams know what's active, blocked, waiting or ready.
Axolt tracks WIP inside Salesforce so teams know what's active, blocked, waiting or ready.- Track WIP by work order and routing stage
- View blocked or delayed jobs
- Identify material or quality issues affecting completion
- Connect WIP to customer order demand
- Improve production handoff to warehouse
Production Completion to Fulfilment
Manufacturing execution doesn't end when the work order is complete. Connect production to warehouse, shipping and finance without rekeying data.
- Receive finished goods into inventory
- Allocate finished goods to customer orders
- Support warehouse handoff and fulfilment
- Connect shipping readiness with production status
- Link production completion to invoicing workflows
Traditional MES vs Axolt Salesforce MES
When MES, ERP and CRM sit in different systems, teams lose control between planning and execution.
| Traditional MES | Axolt Salesforce MES |
|---|---|
| Shop-floor data sits outside CRM and ERP | Production execution connects with customer, order and inventory data |
| Sales teams cannot see production reality | Sales can view production status against customer demand in real time |
| Inventory updates are delayed | Material consumption updates inventory directly in Salesforce |
| Quality checks sit in separate records | Quality activity connects to work orders, stock and customer demand |
| Finance sees production cost impact later | Production activity connects with finance and inventory value in Salesforce |
| More integration and reconciliation overhead | One Salesforce-native operational platform — no integration layer required |
Everything Connected Inside Salesforce
Your CRM doesn't stop at the sales order. With Axolt it continues into production, stock, fulfilment and finance.
Where Salesforce MES Fits with MRP and ERP
MRP on Salesforce helps manufacturers decide what needs to be made. MES helps manufacturers control what actually happens during production. Axolt connects both inside Salesforce.
MRP on Salesforce
Material requirements planning, shortage visibility and purchasing recommendations — helping manufacturers prepare for production before it starts.
- Material requirements planning
- Demand-driven purchasing signals
- Shortage and supply gap visibility
- Production readiness planning
