Built for the
Shop Floor

Everything runs in the browser — no installs, no software updates. Works on any computer, tablet, or phone on your network.

Two Work
Order Types.
One System.

Job Shop WOs track customer orders from quote to ship. Production Run WOs manage your internal product lines — pulling from raw material inventory and adding finished goods to stock when complete.

  • Job Shop — customer order, quote to ship
  • Production Run — internal product, tracks inventory
  • Auto-assign WO numbers sequentially
  • Priority flags: Urgent, High, Normal, Low
  • Customer database with job history autofill
  • Grid, List, and Kanban views

Operation
Sequences
Automated

Build operation sequences with time-per-part estimates, machine assignments, and operator notes. When parts are logged at an operation, the system automatically advances to the next one.

  • Drag-and-drop operation reordering
  • Time per part in minutes + seconds
  • Auto-calculated total estimated hours
  • Auto-advance when parts completed
  • Status: Pending → Running → Done
  • Actual vs estimated time comparison

Scan To
Clock In.
That Simple.

Every operation on the job traveler has a QR code. Operators scan it with their phone, enter their name, and tap Start. A live timer runs. At end of day they log parts completed and tap End.

  • QR code on every printed traveler
  • Mobile-first operator scan page
  • Live elapsed timer on phone
  • Parts-done counter per session
  • Times logged in device local timezone
  • Optional 4-6 digit operator PINs

Print-Ready

  • Code 128 barcode for WO scanning
  • QR code on every operation row
  • Operator sign-off and date lines
  • Parts complete counter per operation

Full Admin
Dashboard

A complete back-office for shop managers. No separate software needed.

Machine Schedule

Live view of every machine showing what's running, who's on it, parts done vs total, and due dates. Auto-refreshes every 60 seconds.

Time Logs

Every operator session stored with start time, end time, and parts count. Edit or delete entries directly from the admin panel.

📊

Reports

On-time delivery %, parts per hour, daily output, operator performance, machine utilization, bottleneck analysis, op time standards, and job estimating database for quoting.

🔧

Hardware & Inventory

Full inventory system with categories (Raw Stock, Tooling, Consumables, Spare Parts), receiving log, weighted average cost, vendor pricing with direct order links, cycle counts, and usage/reorder dashboard.

🕐

Time Clock — 3 Shifts

Operators clock in and out from their phone. Breaks tracked separately. Weekly hours, overtime flagged automatically. Admin sees every shift, can edit entries, filter by operator or date range. Supports 24/7 three-shift shops.

⚙️

Assembly Hardware Pull

Link hardware items to specific operations. Set qty-per-part. When an operator logs parts on an Assembly op, inventory is automatically deducted — no manual entries needed. Full transaction history per item.

📈

Bottleneck Analysis

Detects when OP1 and OP2 run simultaneously and OP2 is starved waiting on parts. Shows exact wait time vs cut time, actual vs target PPH, and recommends batch size or start timing adjustments.

🏭

Product Lines

Manage your internal finished goods inventory. Production Run WOs automatically add to product line stock when complete and trigger a new run when stock hits the reorder point.

🏢

Vendors & RFQ

Manage your material vendors and send professional Request for Quote emails directly from a work order. Log quoted prices and lead times when vendors reply. Full RFQ history per job.

💰

Sales Tracking

Record sale prices when jobs ship, track revenue by customer and date range, calculate gross margin, and view a monthly revenue chart. Shipped jobs auto-create a sale record.

👤

User Roles

Superadmin, Admin, Viewer, and Operator roles. Operators see the shop floor only — no access to admin panel, no ability to edit jobs.

📧

Email Alerts

Automatic notifications when jobs go overdue, operations complete, or raw material stock hits the reorder point. All configurable per shop.

👷

Operator Management

Register operators, set optional PINs, activate or deactivate accounts. See total sessions and parts produced per operator at a glance.

💬

Feedback Built In

Bug reports and suggestions go straight to the admin panel from any page. Coming Soon announcements are posted by admins and visible to the whole shop floor.

🔒

Secure Login

Every page requires login. bcrypt passwords, 30-day remember me, account lockout after failed attempts, session management, and role-based access control throughout.

🟢

Live Shop Floor Monitor

See every operator in real time — who's clocked in, what they're running, which machine, and a live elapsed timer counting up. Auto-refreshes every 60 seconds.

📋

Customer Parts Catalog

Every part you've made is saved with full operations, tool lists, setup sheets, fixtures, and price. When a customer reorders, select from the dropdown and the entire job fills in automatically.

💰

Price Per Part

Set a quoted price on every job shop work order. Saved to the customer parts catalog so it carries forward on repeat orders. Sales records created automatically when jobs ship.

🔗

Customer Job Tracking

Send customers a private link with a simple password. They see live job status, operation-by-operation progress, and quantity made — without calling you. Archived jobs hidden automatically.

Time Log Editor

👥

Full Customer Profiles

Store company address, phone, email, website, and multiple contacts per customer with primary contact flagging. All info in one place under Admin → Customers.

📦

Actual vs Ordered Quantity

Track what was actually made separately from what was ordered. If a part fails QC, record the real count. Shows on the work order, customer tracking page, and sales records.

📄

Quotes

Send a professional priced quote to a customer before creating a work order. Customer accepts, you convert it to a work order with one click — part name, customer, and quantity carry over automatically.

🧾

Invoices — Auto-Generated

The moment a work order's last operation finishes, a draft invoice is created automatically — customer, part, actual quantity made, and price all pre-filled. A dashboard alert tells you when invoices are ready to send.

📋

Purchase Orders

Send formal POs to vendors for materials, tooling, or outside services. Convert directly from a logged RFQ quote, link line items to inventory, and receive shipments with stock updating automatically.

💳

🎨

Custom Document Branding

From machine shops running FastFlowTrack every day on the shop floor.

★★★★★
We were tracking jobs on whiteboards and spreadsheets. FastFlowTrack replaced all of it. The QR scan check-in alone saved us hours a week — operators just scan and go.

The job traveler with the QR code on every operation is a game changer. Guys on the floor scan it and the timer starts. No more guessing who ran what or for how long.
