How it sells itself

BatchSlot helps made-to-order and small-batch merchants organize incoming orders into production batches. Orders for selected products are assigned to the earliest open batch with enough capacity. Merchants can see filled and remaining capacity, planned ship dates, and orders waiting for space. Merchants can create batches automatically and move orders between open batches.

MakeQueue turns open, unfulfilled order line items into a clear production queue. Create product templates with a work center, lead time, and minutes per unit. MakeQueue calculates due dates, scheduled time, and upcoming capacity. Track each task by order, product, quantity, work center, due date, health, and status. Move work through Queued, In production, Quality check, and Ready.

Key points
  • Assign orders to the earliest batch with available capacity
  • Track filled and remaining capacity for every production batch
  • Queue orders when no open batch has enough space
  • Set planned ship dates and edit batch capacity
  • Turn unfulfilled order items into scheduled production tasks
  • Calculate due dates and capacity from product production templates
  • Track production status from Queued through Quality check and Ready
