Sales orders become work orders. Automatically.
When a customer buys, Kitgy decides: ship from stock or build it fresh? If stock is short, a work order spawns — pre-routed to a workstation, pre-checked for material availability, ready for the production floor.
Try it free/workorders grid with 5-10 rows in different states: Pending, Started, On Hold (with reason visible), Completed. Materials-available indicators visible. ~1300×700.
Stock vs. build, decided per line.
Every order detail goes through the fulfillment orchestrator. SKU match, stock check, BOM lookup, allocation. A 10-unit order might fulfill 6 from stock and spawn a WO for 4 — with the math right.
- SKU → Product match
- Stock-or-WO decision per line, accounting for cross-line contention
- WO creation (or extend an existing pending WO for the same product)
- Round-robin workstation assignment
- Material requirements checked — flag short-stock WOs as "blocked"
- Admin notification for unmatched SKUs or material shortages
/workorders/{id} detail page — qty requested vs. finished, material requirements list with stock status, linked sales orders, workstation assignment. ~1200×700.
Reservations that release when they should.
A WO holds the materials it needs. If the customer cancels or refunds — via Shopify webhook, an admin action, whatever — those reservations release automatically so the next order can claim them. No stuck inventory.
Show how materials are split across pending WOs — could be on the materials grid or the WO detail. ~1200×700.
Operators clock into a workstation. The board updates.
Each workstation runs a kiosk view. Operators tap to start a WO, log progress, mark steps complete, raise a hold with a reason. Free of seat charges — the kiosk is a shared device, not a per-person login.
Read about manufacturing/floor or workstation kiosk view — the simplified, big-button UI an operator sees on a tablet at the bench. ~1200×800.
