What CostFlow is

CostFlow is web software for calculating manufacturing unit costs across bills of materials, plants, and SKUs, with connections to ERP systems. Its costing model can include material, labor, machine, and overhead costs, plus routings, subassemblies, alternates, scrap, and yield. It reports unit cost and gross margin by SKU, plant, customer, and channel, and supports standard-versus-actual variance analysis. Users can compare up to six scenarios, modeling changes such as foreign exchange, commodity costs, suppliers, or yield. Listed ERP connectors include SAP S/4HANA, Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Odoo, and QuickBooks; other integrations include data warehouses, analytics tools, spreadsheets, and identity services. CostFlow is read-and-augment by default, leaving the ERP as the system of record and requiring approval for write-backs. Its security information lists TLS 1.2 or later in transit, AES-256 at rest, and a dedicated KMS. Pricing is on request and there is no free plan. The privacy policy identifies itself as a placeholder pending counsel review.
