Olive & Vegetable Oils
Olive & Vegetable Oils: production orders and BOM, stock and warehouse, quality and reporting.
Challenges
- Producer purchase receipts are written by hand, so withholding tax and grower balances stay in a separate ledger.
- How many litres of oil each olive intake yields is not calculated per lot, so the true cost stays unknown.
- Acidity and lab results are not linked to the lot, so extra virgin–riviera grading is done from memory.
- Transfers and blends between tanks go unrecorded, so which lot's oil sits in which tank gets confused.
Workflows
From olive intake to pressing
- Olives from the grower are weighed on the scale; a producer purchase receipt is issued and withholding is posted to the account.
- The intake gets a lot number; variety, harvest year and waiting time are recorded.
- A pressing production order is opened; the litres of oil produced are posted to the lot and the yield is calculated.
From tank to bottle
- The lab result is entered on a quality control form; the lot is graded by its acidity.
- A tank blending record is opened, showing how much moved from which lot into which tank.
- A filling production order moves the oil into packaging; the lot code and best-before date are printed on the label.

FAQ
Can I issue the producer purchase receipt from the system?
Yes — the weight from the weighbridge ticket carries into the receipt, withholding is calculated and the amount is posted as a payable on the grower's account.
Can I see the yield per lot?
Yes — the pressing production order compares kilos of olives in with litres of oil out, and the yield is calculated automatically.
Can I link the acidity analysis to the lot?
Yes — the result is recorded on the lot through a quality control form, and any grade change is reflected as a product variant in stock.
Can I track transfers between tanks?
Yes — every blending record keeps the source tank, target tank and quantity, so tank stock is visible in real time.
Can I track bottle and tin sizes separately?
Yes — each pack size is its own product variant; the filling order draws down bulk oil stock and increases the packaged item.
