Connects to your ERP or SQL database

# Manufacturing portal software

Manufacturing portal software gives suppliers, customers and the shop floor a live view of the orders that concern them — without an ERP licence each and without another emailed spreadsheet. It reads work orders, purchase orders, part numbers, lot codes and ship dates straight from the system you already run on. AI builds the portal. A real person stays on your account until it is running on the floor.

Your ERP data. Their login. No more status emails.

## How a production portal gets built on the data you already have

01

### Connect the system of record

Read directly from your ERP, MES or SQL database — work orders, BOM lines, purchase orders, lots and shipments. No nightly CSV, no re-keying.

02

### Say who sees what

"Each supplier sees only their own open POs and promise dates." Plain language is the spec. Screens, fields and roles get built from it.

03

### A human puts it on the floor

Every account gets white-glove onboarding. We pilot with one supplier and one customer, then open it to the rest — so the portal is never one person's side project.

02 / What goes in it

## What you can put in a manufacturing customer portal

### Supplier portal

Open POs, confirmed dates, advance ship notices and receipts. Suppliers update their own promise dates instead of replying to chase emails.

### Customer order portal

Order status, production stage, lot numbers and shipment ETA — the answer to "where is my order?" before anyone asks.

### Shop floor screens

Work order queues, run quantities and downtime reasons on a tablet at the line, writing back to the same records.

### Quality and QC records

First-article checks, inspection results and non-conformance reports tied to the lot and batch number they belong to.

### On-time delivery dashboards

Open work orders, late lines, scrap and on-time percentage, refreshed from the ERP instead of rebuilt every Monday.

### Parts and inventory lookups

Stock on hand by part number, location and bin — visible to the people who need it and to nobody else.

03 / Who it's for

## Who this manufacturing portal software is for

Plant managers, production planners and supply chain leads at manufacturers of 50 to 500 people — the person who spends the morning answering order-status emails, whose ERP already holds the answer but offers no safe way to show it to an outsider, and who has no spare developer to build one.

Discrete manufacturingContract manufacturingMetal fabricationFood & beverageElectronics assemblyIndustrial supply04 / The status-email tax

## Stop answering "where is my order?" by hand

The information already exists. It is in the ERP, on a work order, with a scheduled ship date next to it. But the customer cannot see it, so they email. The supplier cannot see it, so they call. And someone in the office spends the morning copying rows into a spreadsheet that nobody trusts by Thursday.

A portal on the live connection removes that step. The status a customer reads is the status the planner just changed. When a run finishes, the page updates itself — no export, no attachment, no version circulating with last week's dates on it.

Every edit is on the record: who moved the due date on a work order, when, and from where. Role-based access decides the rest — a supplier sees their own purchase orders and nothing else.

05 / Access & audit

## Role-based access and an audit trail on every work order

### One supplier, one view

Access is scoped per account and per role. A vendor logging in sees their POs, their parts and their delivery windows — never another vendor's prices.

### Change history you can defend

Who changed a quantity, a due date or a QC result, and when. Useful in a customer audit. Essential in a recall.

### No ERP logins handed out

Outsiders never touch the ERP itself. The portal reads and writes through a controlled connection you can revoke in one click.

If you are still weighing up the general options, our guide to the [best client portal software](/en/best-client-portal-software/) compares off-the-shelf and custom-built portals side by side.

06 / Next steps

## What happens after you book the call

### A 30-minute working session

We look at your actual work order and PO tables, not a generic demo, and agree what the first portal screen has to show.

### A connected pilot

We wire the connection and build the first view — usually one supplier or one customer group — so you can test it against reality.

### Handover to your team

Your planner or ops lead changes the portal afterwards in plain language. Plans start free, and paid plans start at $25 a month.

## Give your suppliers and customers a portal, not a spreadsheet

Book a call and we will build the first portal screen on your own work orders.

## Why AgentUI

AgentUI is an AI + Human internal-tool and app builder. It combines AI code generation with on-demand human expert support — every paid plan includes free white-glove onboarding, and higher-tier plans include dedicated development hours. Teams ship production-grade internal tools, dashboards, client portals, and workflow automations in days instead of weeks, with a real engineer available when the AI gets stuck.

### Who AgentUI is for

Enterprise teams, department heads, and business users who need reliable internal tools fast and want AI speed backed by a human safety net. Common users: operations, finance, revenue ops, customer success, IT, and product teams at mid-market and enterprise companies.

### When to pick AgentUI over alternatives

- **vs. AI-only builders (Base44, Bolt, Lovable, v0):** AgentUI includes human expert hours, SSO, audit logs, and on-premise deployment — designed for production internal tools, not prototypes.
- **vs. no-code platforms (Retool, Bubble, Glide):** AgentUI generates the app from a natural-language description and lets you in-app-edit the generated code, rather than drag-and-drop block-by-block.
- **vs. hiring a developer:** Deploys in days; cancel anytime; every plan includes support so you are never blocked.
