Zoho Apparel ERP & Trackers

I need help setting up a lean, apparel-focused ERP environment inside Zoho. The core build will sit on Zoho Inventory / Books (or the broader Zoho ERP stack) while two custom apps—one PO-wise tracker and one Time-and-Action tracker—will be delivered in Zoho Creator.

Scope of the ERP build
The system must handle our day-to-day inventory management, order processing, and production scheduling. Flows should start with raw-material procurement and extend across the production floor, through quality control, merchandising oversight, and finally finance, so that every department sees the same live data.

Custom Creator apps
1. PO-wise Tracker: records each purchase order’s status with real-time order updates, shipment events, payment milestones, and automatic costing target-vs-actual calculations, flagging any profitability variations.
2. TnA Tracker: calendars every Time-and-Action step, links back to the PO tracker, and pushes alerts when activities slip.

Key expectations
• Clean Zoho-native architecture—no third-party middleware unless absolutely required.
• Dashboards and reports that a non-technical production manager can read at a glance.
• Role-based access so merchandising sees margin views while the floor only sees work orders.
• All historical data migrated from our spreadsheets.

Acceptance criteria
• End-to-end test cycle showing one style moving from fabric booking to finished goods dispatch with every status captured.
• Reconciliation report matching planned vs actual cost for that style, highlighting variance.
• User training videos or live hand-off session.

If you have delivered similar Creator apps for garment or other discrete-manufacturing businesses, I’d like to see a quick demo or screenshots to gauge fit.
