CLEAR OWNERSHIP. CONNECTED FUNCTIONS.

How the scope fits together.

Why it is a separate MicroERP

Artwork/proof/imposition/press/count/finishing states are a complete independently useful print MIS workflow rather than a few fields in a generic production screen.

Dependencies to plan

  • production-execution-core
  • bom-routing-core
  • inventory-ledger-core
  • quality-release-core
  • document-evidence-core

Outside this scope

  • No per-industry copy of BOM, stock, scheduling or accounting logic.
  • Domain recipe/style/configuration/artwork rules remain explicit modules and can be deployed without unrelated production variants.
