eManage ERP FAQ: pricing, implementation, GST and hosting

eManage is manufacturing ERP software made in Ludhiana since 2000. It has 12 industry editions, six for textile and six for engineering plants, which share one database for sales, planning, purchase, production, quality, inventory, costing, accounts, GST and payroll. A sale order entered once drives every department, and four Android apps extend it to the gate, store, approvals and QC.

Textile: garment, knitting, weaving, dyeing, spinning and woolen. Engineering: fastener, hand tool, auto component, sheet metal, tractor parts and railway parts. Each edition ships with the masters, routings, documents and reports of that trade, such as KPO and roll weighing for knitting or heat lots and PPAP records for auto components. A vertical unit can run two or three editions together.

Every edition includes sales and delivery schedules, planning and MRP from the BOM, purchase, GRN and job work with ITC-04, production and WIP, quality with holds and test certificates, inventory at lot, roll, heat or rack level, costing, accounts and GST, and HR with piece-rate payroll. The edition changes the masters and documents; the core is the same.

Yes. Operator output is captured at the production entry, by barcode scan or manual entry, and wages are computed from the piece-rate master. Contractor and company workers are kept separate, and the same entries feed ESI, PF and the monthly wage sheet, so the wage register and the production register always agree.

Yes. Four Android apps run on ordinary phones and rugged tablets: eGate for gate passes and vehicle logs, eWarehouse for racks, barcodes and tag printing, eDoc Approval for PO and challan sign-off, and Garment eQC for inline and final inspection. Owners read the day's reports in a browser on their phone.

Yes. Every installation starts from the edition for your trade and is customised to your plant during the process study: masters, routings, documents, print formats, approval routes, reports and connected scales or weighbridges. Where something is genuinely specific to your plant, eManage builds it and keeps it inside the product, so later releases and GST updates do not break it.

Yes. A new process, a second plant, a new buyer format or a new report is set up by the same engineers who implemented the system. Changes are kept in the product, so they carry forward through updates.

eManage does not publish a price list because the figure depends on the edition, the number of users and locations, and whether you host on the cloud or on a server in the plant. A written quote follows a short process study, and it covers licences, implementation and training together. The demo and the study are free.

One licence covers the desktop, web and Android apps for a plant; the mobile apps are not bought separately. Users are counted as named or concurrent, as agreed in the quote, and a second company or unit on the same database is added to the existing licence rather than purchased again.

Yes. Annual support covers phone and WhatsApp support from the named engineer, product updates, and the statutory changes for GST, TDS, ESI and PF that are released to every plant. It is quoted alongside the licence so the cost of the first year and the years after is clear before you sign.

Implementation, on-site training for each role and migration of masters, opening stock and balances from Tally or Excel are included in the quote, not billed separately. Travel for plants outside Punjab is agreed in advance. The usual extras are barcode printers, weigh-scale integration and any hardware the plant buys.

Yes. Many clients start with sales, stock and GST, then add production, quality and payroll once the masters are stable. Because every module shares one database, adding a module later does not mean re-entering data, and a second unit, godown or job-work party joins the same chart of accounts.

Yes. GST is computed on every sale, purchase and job-work document. E-invoice IRN and e-way bill are generated from the dispatch screen, and GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B data is ready to file or hand to your accountant. Because the figures come from the same entries as stock and dispatch, nothing is retyped into another package.

Yes. Material sent to a dyer, plater, forger or stitching contractor goes out on a job-work challan, comes back against it, and the party-wise out, in, shortage and wastage is tracked. ITC-04 is prepared from those challans, and job-work charges flow to the party's account and to the order's cost.

Yes. TDS is deducted on purchase and expense bills with the return data ready. Payroll produces ESI and PF challan data, Form 16 inputs and the wage registers. Statutory changes are released to every plant before the filing date because all clients run the same product line.

Yes. Commercial invoice, packing list, shipping bill details and certificate of origin are generated from the dispatch entry in the formats your forwarder and buyer expect. Garment and hand-tool exporters also get carton-wise packing lists with size, colour and style breakdowns from the same screen.

Every document records who created, edited or approved it and when. Stock is traceable by lot, roll, heat number or batch, so a railway parts vendor can show RDSO inspectors the heat behind a dispatched part and a dyeing unit can show the recipe behind a shade lot.
