Merlin MRP Factory is our industrial manufacturing MRP software system, which incorporates security, administrator assigned user access levels, production control, a faster, more efficient interface, and other benefits which are explained in more detail on the Product Detail page. The power of this manufacturing software is encapsulated in a friendly and easy-to-use interface which was the subject of careful development in its own right, and can be downloaded from this website and run immediately in Single User form FREE OF CHARGE. When you are satisfied of its immense power and timesaving abilities, and if you need to, you can upgrade to Power User, and/or add Multi Licence Packs. You pay nothing unless and until you need to upgrade, and are happy that it is the MRP system for you. Just a click will run the MRP process, creating works orders, subassembly jobs and materials purchase orders for one, a linked group, or all of your production jobs. For more detailed information please see the overview below and click the links below in the left-hand column.

Sales Orders & Jobs	Enter all Sales Orders, and authorise for production when ready. Until authorised, sales orders are not active jobs, and cannot be seen by manufacturing. Job collisions on any given route are reported and the system will re-generate logical Start/Finish dates if required.
MRP Process	The MRP process can be run at any time by the click of a button. Calculates all subassembly requirements, and automatically creates Works Orders, sub-jobs and materials Purchase Orders in seconds. you can stop the process at any point if you need to change anything before committing.
Shop Floor Control	Run MRP for a single job for shortages of the full kit. Alternatively, you can run shortage checks, allocate materials, print Pick List and Process Lists, Issue Materials for all or part of a run, or de-Issue materials, each at the click of a button.
Stock Control	In addition to the MRP process, you can control stock against many criteria, such as Minimum Stock levels, Minimum Purchase quantities, etc. We are only scratching the surface of what the Merlin MRP System can do. Please click here for more information.
Training Three ways to learn how to use the software.	The interface of Merlin MRP Factory has been made as easy to use as possible, but the system is immensely powerful, there is a learning curve, and you are likely to need some help to get started. We offer 3 options:- 1. You can start very quickly with Merlin MRP Factory by downloading the software, evaluating for free, and purchasing a key if an when you are ready. The built-in User Guide will get you up and running. You will need to study the User Guide in some detail, but it does contain all the information you need to master the system. 2. The above is time-consuming, and not everybody's idea of fun, so we are planning a regular series of regional Merlin Workshops to give you a clear understanding of what the system can do, and to get you off to a flying start. This could be very useful if you are still considering which system to buy, or if you want to try Merlin MRP Factory but need some help to get started, or have decided to buy without onsite training but want more than just the User Guide, or if you are already using the system, but feel you need some help or top-up training. For more information, please click here. 3. We offer a full corporate service where we attend your site for two days, install the software for you across your network, and provide full hands-on training. When we leave, your system is up and running, and your staff are trained.
