Features
Everything a manufacturer needs every day
Developed from the day-to-day of a sheet metal and welding business – not a generic ERP with an industry add-on. The core of quoting, BOMs, work orders, purchasing and stock suits any manufacturer that builds to order.
BOMs & routings
Multi-level BOMs, operations with time factors and templates. An order becomes work orders and purchasing requirements.
Production & nesting
Plan and track work orders, group sheet cut-outs in nesting and report the result back to the jobs.
Purchasing & goods in
Requests for quote, purchase orders with approval, goods receipt and stock withdrawals – demand comes straight from the exploded BOM.
Items & stock
Item master with geometry, material, files and preview image. Stock levels and movements fully traceable.
Delivery dockets & invoices
Delivery dockets and invoices are created from finished order lines. PDF reports, ready to send as an email draft.
Dashboard & reports
Open orders, overdue work, turnover over recent months and top customers at a glance – plus your own report templates.
AI assistant
Ask questions about your data in plain English and have files and emails read for you. The assistant only proposes changes – you approve them.
Permissions & audit trail
User groups with rights per module, changes stamped with user and time. Every change approved through the assistant is logged.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is PT-SE ERP?
PT-SE ERP is web-based ERP software for manufacturers. It covers quoting, orders, bills of materials, production planning, nesting, purchasing, stock, delivery dockets and invoicing in one system, with a focus on sheet metal, welding and fabrication.
Does PT-SE ERP work with Xero?
Yes. You can send invoices and purchase orders to Xero, match customers and suppliers as Xero contacts and keep items in step between the ERP and Xero.
Does it connect to SolidWorks?
Yes. The SolidWorks add-in sends parts and assemblies straight into the ERP item master, including sheet metal, geometry and weight data, and the BOM structure. The flat pattern (DXF, PDF or STEP) can be opened from the item.
Is it only for sheet metal and welding shops?
No. Sheet metal, welding and fabrication are our focus, and features like nesting and flat patterns are built in. The core of quoting, BOMs, work orders, purchasing and stock works for any manufacturer that builds to order.
What about payroll and time clocks?
If you use Wageloch for payroll, we can connect employees and clock times on request. This is optional.
Do I need to install anything?
No. PT-SE ERP runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install and you are always on the current version. Every customer gets their own address, for example yourcompany.ptse-erp.com, and their own database.
