Every order, every variant, every carton on one record
From fabric and colour options to make-to-order production, from subcontracted upholstery and painting to shipment; cloud ERP for furniture manufacturers.
A furniture maker’s familiar pains, lasting answers
We move what gets lost between showroom, workshop, warehouse and dealer onto one record.
Fabric × colour × size, endless combinations
Every fabric and colour option of a sofa model is a separate stock item; creating them and copying bills of materials by hand takes weeks.
Variant matrix: pick the fabric, colour and size values and every combination is created in one step. Variants inherit the parent model’s bill of materials and routing.
“Where is my order?” calls
Sales calls production every day to ask where each order is; dealers call sales.
In make-to-order, each production order is linked to its sales order: the order screen shows quantities produced, in production and planned. Your dealer can follow along on the Hadron Partner portal, if you choose.
Wood and fabric properties aren’t recorded
Wood species, moisture content and fabric abrasion values live on paper or in spreadsheets; purchasing and production don’t speak the same language.
The furniture field pack adds fields such as wood species, thickness, moisture content, surface finish, fabric type, Martindale value, fire retardancy, style and dimensions to the material card; by material group, without code.
Subcontracted upholstery and painting drop out of sight
Upholstery, lacquer and painting are done outside; goods at the subcontractor and the subcontracting cost go unnoticed.
The subcontracted step is in the routing; its purchase order opens automatically, material at the subcontractor is tracked separately, the cost flows to the production order and scrap is reported.
Stock between warehouse, showroom and factory
Goods moving between sites show up in two places or disappear; waybills are written by hand.
Transfers between storage locations take one step; transfers between plants take two, showing goods in transit separately. E-waybills are generated for shipments between your own sites too.
From order to delivery, on one record
Each stage inherits the record and cost of the one before.
- 01
Order
Dealer or customer orders are entered with the model, fabric and colour variant.
- 02
Planning
In make-to-order, MRP creates a planned order linked to each sales order.
- 03
Cutting and machining
Panel and solid-wood parts are consumed from the bill of materials; confirmed at work centres.
- 04
Upholstery and painting
In your own workshop or subcontracted; cost and scrap are written to the order.
- 05
Packing and shipment
Cartons and pallets are barcoded; e-waybill and e-invoice documents are generated.
What’s next for furniture
These capabilities are not in the product today; they are planned. Our customers’ needs set the order and timing — let’s talk in a demo.
Delivery date promise
Calculating an achievable delivery date from stock and production status while the order is being entered.
Finished-goods-ready signal
Proposing a delivery for the waiting order when production completes; no manual matching by the planner.
Dual units of measure
Conversion between square metres, sheets and metres for panels and fabric; different units for purchasing, stock and bills of materials.
The modules that come together for furniture

What furniture manufacturers ask
The most frequent questions before a demo.
No. Variants inherit the parent model’s bill of materials and routing. You define a separate bill only for a variant that needs a different recipe.
Yes. On the Hadron Partner portal your dealer sees their own orders, shipments and invoices. If you choose to share production status, they also see quantities produced, in production and planned, with the estimated completion date; cost, internal order numbers and scrap are never shared.
Yes. The furniture field pack brings ready-made fields for wood and panels, fabric and filling, metal parts, hardware and finished furniture: wood species, thickness, moisture content, surface finish, Martindale value, style, dimensions, warranty period and more. Fields are asked by material group and can be extended without code.
Each plant and storage location sees its own stock. Transfers between storage locations take one step; transfers between plants take two, showing goods in transit separately; e-waybills are generated for shipments between your own sites too.
Not automatically yet. Today the delivery date is entered on the order, and in make-to-order the planned orders are created against that date. Calculating the date from stock and production status at order entry is on our roadmap.
Yes. Approval policies are defined by amount and company code. A supplier invoice goes to the person responsible for that supplier, is coded to a budget line and sent to their manager for approval. A budget overrun doesn’t block the invoice; it escalates to a higher approver and requires a justification.
