Product overview:
What is SMS?

The Selfbits Manufacturing Suite (SMS) is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution hosted entirely in Germany for recording, analyzing, and optimizing your production processes. The suite combines a modern web application for planning and control with an intuitive mobile app for data collection directly at the machine, enabling paperless manufacturing throughout.

The SMS integrates seamlessly with your ERP system. It offers REST and GraphQL interfaces to ensure easy data integration and analysis. It supports companies in digitizing their production processes, identifying inefficiencies, and implementing continuous improvements.

Overview of
key features
Production data acquisition
Good and rejected quantities are recorded with predefined reasons; operating statuses are logged and analyzed, and batch tracking slips can be printed directly from the app.
Production planning & shift model
Detailed planning is carried out using drag & drop in the browser with an integrated operating calendar, shift models for each workstation, and capacity balancing to avoid bottlenecks.
Staff time recording
Personnel times are recorded on tablets for each order and work step and linked to machine and material data to provide a transparent overview of efficiency and costs.
Order processing
The app synchronizes items, orders, and parts lists with the ERP system; employees process orders immediately with all relevant information to minimize errors.
Dashboards & KPIs

Dashboards show production volumes, scrap, and machine status per shift in comparison; OEE is calculated from the recorded data to identify performance deviations at an early stage.

Multilingualism
The interface and all texts are available in German and English; additional languages can be added on request to optimally support international use and different user groups.

Complete transparency – from goods receipt to finished product

With the Selfbits Manufacturing Suite, you can consistently record all relevant production data: from machine statuses and staff times to material consumption – including OEE. The application ensures that every component and every process step is traceable.

Selfbits Manufacturing Suite:
Interfaces

The Selfbits web app is a browser application that serves as the central user interface for all users with a computer workstation, such as planners, analysts, and production managers. In addition to master data management, it offers functions for production planning, control, monitoring, and analysis in your company.

The Selfbits mobile app is the central user interface for users who log in on the go in your production facility or at your machine or assembly workstations. It is used, for example, for the simple and intuitive recording of quantities, rejects, malfunctions, or operating statuses.

The app is optimized for display on tablets and can be used on both Android and iOS devices in your company. All you need to get started is WiFi internet access. Selfbits apps also support pairing with Bluetooth barcode scanners or NFC chip readers. Our digitalization experts will be happy to provide you with a list of supported peripherals.

The machine data interface allows you to securely transfer your machine data from your local network to your Selfbits Manufacturing Suite via a REST API. The integration can be carried out either by you or by our Industry 4.0 specialists.
The ERP interface allows flexible integration with your ERP system. The ERP GraphQL API is used to synchronize your machines, storage locations, article master data, parts lists, work plans, and production orders from your ERP system to Selfbits. At the same time, it provides work-related feedback on your times and quantities for retrieval. The integration can be implemented either by you or by Selfbits as a service and operated as a managed service (see “Selfbits Flow Designer”) on a virtual machine in your network.
