ERP for Steel & Metals
ERPKaro tracks steel and metals operations the way the material actually moves: by heat number, coil, bundle, and weighment, from melt or purchase through yards and processing to dispatched trucks.
01
- Heat and batch traceability from receipt to dispatch
02
- Coil, bundle, and plate-level handling units
03
- Yard and multi-godown stock positions live
04
- Weighment-based dispatch with e-Way Bills
What slows steel & metals operations down
01
Traceability breaks between documents
Heat numbers live on mill test certificates, but registers and invoices lose the link, so claims and audits become archaeology.
How ERPKaro handles it
Heat and batch identifiers travel with every handling unit through stock, processing, and dispatch, with test certificates attached to the record.
02
Yard stock is invisible until someone walks it
Coils and bundles across yards and godowns are tracked in diaries; sales commits material that cannot be found.
How ERPKaro handles it
Handling-unit level inventory shows what is in which yard, row, and stack, so commitments match physical stock.
03
Scrap and yield are discovered at month end
Process yield and scrap generation are computed after the fact, hiding margin leaks for weeks.
How ERPKaro handles it
Production orders record input and output weights per run, making yield and scrap visible per shift instead of per month.
04
Purchasing fights price volatility blind
Buy decisions for scrap, billets, or coils happen without a live view of stock cover and confirmed orders.
How ERPKaro handles it
Purchase planning sees current stock, in-transit loads, and confirmed demand in one place, so buying follows cover, not panic.
05
Dispatch weighment and billing disagree
Invoices raised from sales weights get disputed against weighbridge slips, delaying payment.
How ERPKaro handles it
Dispatch records carry actual weighment, and invoices, challans, and e-Way Bills generate from the same figures.
How steel teams run ERPKaro
- Item Management. SKUs by grade, section, and finish with heat-number batches
- Handling Units Management. Coil, bundle, and plate-level tracking across yards
- Quality Control (QC). Test certificates and inspection checklists per heat
- Production Order Management. Rolling, cutting, and processing runs with input-output weights
- Inbound Load Management. Scrap, billet, and coil receipts with weighbridge entries
- Dock Scheduling. Loading sequence for trailers and trucks at the yard

Frequently asked questions
Can ERPKaro track material by heat number?
Yes. Heat or batch identifiers attach to handling units at receipt or production and follow the material through stock, processing, and dispatch.
Does it support coil and bundle level inventory?
Yes. Each coil, bundle, or plate can be a handling unit with its own weight, location, and history, instead of a quantity in a register.
How does it handle weighbridge-based dispatch?
Dispatch records carry actual weighment figures, and invoices, delivery challans, and e-Way Bills are generated from those figures to avoid disputes.
Can we see yield and scrap per production run?
Yes. Production orders record input and output weights, so yield and scrap are visible per run and per shift.
Does it work for traders as well as producers?
Yes. The same stock, weighment, and dispatch workflows apply whether material is produced in-house or bought and resold.
Can multiple yards and godowns run on one system?
Yes. Yards, godowns, and processing units are locations in one system with live stock and transfer visibility.
